Lots of my friends here on this agenda -- @Parentalla (Aparna Vashisht) {Her mother took us around India and is a delightful person} Kevin Jarrett @kjarrett, Lisa Nielsen @InnovativeEdu Mary Beth Hertz @mbteach Chris Lehman - @chrislehmann to name a few.

Of course Ivanka Trump and Anne Curry are also on the list. Have fun and good luck everyone!Flash Mobs Take Violent Turn in Philadelphia - NYTimes.com
