The American Cancer Society - 2011 Relay For Life of Albany:

On June 17th I'll get the opportunity to celebrate surviving with some of my survivor friends and supporters at the Albany Relay for Life. If you'd like to support the relay or light a luminaria in someone's name you can donate here.

There have been great strides in the just the last few years in cancer research with the help of donations. Please remember your loved ones and make a donation.

My current obsession

Raising Cain, The Emotional Lives of Boys. Read it, just do it. It's only 258 pages long and it will change how you view and interact with boys. If you have a boy in your life, whether you're a parent, teacher, mentor or friend, you need to read this.

"...But as their manuscript progressed, Kindlon and Thompson realized a simple "how-to" would not do. "In the end," they write, "we found that the best advice we had to offer was simply to understand boys as they truly are rather than as they appear or as we wish them to be. Our deepest wish is to pull aside the curtain boys so tenaciously draw around themselves and offer you a look inside their hearts and minds. If we succeed, we hope that you will see more clearly the ways in which our culture conspires to limit and undermine their emotional lives. We hope you will understand boys better, and above all, we hope you will enjoy them more"
