If you file your stories electronically but like to send postcards the old fashioned way, the special edition Riga Summit postage stamp will give your retro writing a special touch!

This week, in honor of the NATO Riga Summit 2006, the Latvian Post released a special postal stamp and envelope to mark the event. Both will feature the NATO Riga Summit logo. While the stamp will become an instant collector’s item, it is intended for general use.  Drop a card to your friends or relatives, or maybe just send one to yourself back home. It’s always nice to get mail from Riga.

“NATO is and will remain the main anchor of our common security. It is the central transatatlantic forum for consultation and coordination. In advance of the NATO summit in Riga this November we will have to examine in greater detail the role that NATO should assume in the future, and what consequences the changes to the security environment are to have on the Organization
