CANADA: OTTAWA: ANTI LANDMINE TREATY CONFERENCE
English/Nat
Despite the refusal of some nations to sign the treaty outlawing landmines, the U-N on Tuesday said the groundswell of support for the ban would draw them in eventually.
About 120 nations have sent delegates to sign the historic treaty starting on Wednesday.
But several major producers and users of landmines - including the United States, China and Russia - are sending only observers and will not sign.
In the Canadian capital of Ottawa, U-N Secretary-General Kofi Annan paid a visit to his host, Prime Minister Jean Chretien.
Annan lamented the refusal of Russia, China and the United States to join more than 120 nations banning the production, sale and deployment of landmines.
The treaty also aims to remove existing minefields and help treat victims of landmines.
But Annan said holdout countries were feeling the heat from others around the globe and might soon fall into line backing the ban.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
I think it is significant and unfortunate that they are not here but given the pressure from the people from the grass roots, I really do not believe that any government can sit out this movement for long. It's only a question of time.
SUPER CAPTION: Kofi Annan, United Nations Secretary-General
Indeed, Russia may be close to signing the treaty, Annan said.
The United States also is observing many of the provisions of the ban, but Bill Clinton is following the advice of the Pentagon, which objects to parts of the treaty.
Chretien said it was a good sign that the holdout countries were on the scene in Ottawa as observers.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
A lot of Americans are observing the conference. The Russians are here too. The Chinese are here too at this moment. So the pressure is on. In fact in Vancouver, the president of the United States in front of all the press congratulated Canada for this initiative.
SUPER CAPTION: Jean Chretien, Canadian Prime Minister
While the official U-S observer delegation was keeping a low profile, a senator from President Clinton's own party was causing a stir with thinly veiled attacks on Clinton's position and his political will.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
The journey to Ottawa says as much about leadership and the risks that leadership entails and it says something about those who could have helped but who lacked the will or vision to help.
SUPER CAPTION: Patrick Leahy, U-S Democrat Senator, Vermont
Leahy is at the conference acting on his own and has made no secret of his disagreement with the president on the landmine issue.
He even hinted that Clinton might get along better with the U-S Congress if he signed the treaty.

Jerusha Abbott was brought up at the John Grier Home, an old-fashioned orphanage. The children were wholly dependent on charity and had to wear other people's cast-off clothes. Jerusha's unusual first name was selected by the matron off a grave stone, while her surname was selected out of the phone book. At the age of 18, she has finished her education and is at loose ends, still working in the dormitories at the institution where she was brought up.
One day, after the asylum's trustees have made their monthly visit, Jerusha is informed by the asylum's dour matron that one of the trustees has offered to pay her way through college. He has spoken to her former teachers and thinks she has potential to become an excellent writer. He will pay her tuition and also give her a generous monthly allowance. Jerusha must write him a monthly letter, because he believes that letter-writing is important to the development of a writer. However, she will never know his identity; she must address the letters to Mr. John Smith, and he will never reply.
Jerusha catches a glimpse of the shadow of her benefactor from the back, and knows he is a tall long-legged man. Because of this, she jokingly calls him Daddy Long-Legs. She attends a women's college, but the name and location are never identified; however, men from Princeton University are frequently mentioned as dates, so it is certainly on the East Coast. The college is almost certainly based on the author's alma mater, Vassar College, judging from college traditions mentioned. She illustrates her letters with childlike line drawings, also created by Jean Webster. (Summary by Wikipedia)

How to Use a Metal Detector to Uncover Hidden Bounty
Watch more How to Have Fun at the Beach videos:
Think buried treasure is only for pirates and archaeologists? Think again.
Step 1: Practice using the detector
Get acquainted with the device by burying metal objects and running the detector over them. If you have a more sophisticated metal detector, take note of the different sounds it makes depending on the object it's detecting.
Step 2: Search the best locations
Search online or at the library for locations like popular recreation sites and areas where historical events occurred to up your chances of uncovering something great.
Tip
If you're searching private property, get the owner's permission. Contact local authorities before searching national parks or monuments.
Step 3: Start detecting
Start in one corner of the area you're searching. Hold the detector in front of you and walk slowly and deliberately in a straight line to the other end of the area, keeping the detector's coils at a consistent distance from the ground and parallel to it. Make a methodical back and forth sweep of the area, like mowing a lawn.
Step 4: Pinpoint your treasure
When you pick up a signal, run the detector over a 2 square foot area around where the signal occurred. Listen for where the signal is loudest and gently drive a probe into the ground until you feel the object.
Tip
Use an electronic probe to save time and effort.
Step 5: Excavate your find
Dig up your find with a spade, being careful not to damage it during excavation. Then, refill the hole and tamp down the dirt. If you think you've found something worth keeping, store it in your backpack. If it's trash, put it in your trash bag for proper disposal later.
Tip
Never clean a find until a specialist has looked at it and given the okay.
Step 6: Get an expert to examine it
Take potentially valuable finds to an antique or coin dealer to assess their worth.
Step 7: Practice
Practice. Stay alert, enjoy your time in the great outdoors, and keep your fingers crossed for the next big find!
Did You Know?
In 2009 British metal detectorist Terry Herbert found a 1,300 year old hoard of Anglo-Saxon treasure worth millions of dollars in a farmer's field.
