    EX-BEATLE MCCARTNEY LEADS NEW ANTI-LANDMINE DRIVE

    Former Beatle Paul McCartney and his girlfriend Heather
    Mills Monday launched a new campaign to rid the world of
    landmines.

    "Landmines take or wreck three lives an hour, every hour,
    every day of every year. We have to come together now to
    try to stop that," McCartney said on launching Adopt-A-Minefield
    UK, a new charity raising funds for mine clearance and landmine
    survivors.
