Oceanhouse Media create apps that uplift, educate and inspire. Oceanhouse Media has licensed with Dr. Seuss Enterprises to bring his beloved children's classics to the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/Drilling_Pennsylvania_for_Dollars.html Here is a guest blog from a familiar face to Citizen Hunter, Brady Russell, who works with clean water action. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/The_Heart_of_The_Matter_Beyond_Conventional_Wisdom.html I asked my buddy Jordan Paul to write a piece describing his new blog so I could share it with all of you. Hope you enjoy--check it out and let me know what you think. Conventional Wisdom has never been my cup of tea so it speaks to me for sure. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/Support_moms_on_Moms_Day.html In the past I have written about my dear friend Valerie Sobel and all the great work she does with her foundation Andre Sobel River of Life Foundation. I wanted to share with you the opportunity she provides to support those who need it most on this very special day--Mother's Day. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/Young_Christians_Mobilize_to_Eliminate_Nukes.html Last week young Christian leaders joined forces to launch a new initiative aimed at ridding the world of nuclear weapons. I was on the call and wanted to share what I thought was a great project. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/The_Ups_and_Down_of_Going_Higher.html While education has always been important to me, the current state of our economy makes it more important than ever. Although a college degree will not guarantee job stability, it adds increased security in tenuous economic times. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/Lets_get_healthy_food_into_hospitals.html Sorry I have not posted in a week - I was traveling a lot and it was difficult to get online. A shame since this amazing email has been sitting in my inbox. I asked Gail to write a piece for Citizen Hunter since I recently read her funny, uplifting and super smart book Cancer is a Bitch! http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/April_is_Donate_Life_Month.html Though I am often not a fan of a month for this cause or day for that cause, it is helpful in just reminding us of things we should be working on all year round. April is National Donate Life Month, and LifeSharers.org told me in their e-mail that they have a solution to the organ donation crisis that is causing needless loss of life. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/flavia/Get_Outta_The_Weeds.html Folks, I know things are tough right now. Everyone is paying the price for our collective gluttony of years gone by.
