... experience with micro lending. I believe that firsthand experience of micro lending and its impact upon families and communities may inspire myself and others to donate their gifts to the cause. My hope is to return to these developing areas of the world: Latin America, sub-Saharan Africa, South and East Asia, with students interested in learning how they can be a play a part in what Amartya Sen calls (global) development as (human) freedom.<br> One last reason for circling the globe ...

... of that child. Kevin Carter chose to take the picture, which won the 1994 Pulitzer, but he was so haunted by his decision that he later committed suicide. As you look up from the atrium on the 1st level, you see some of the machines that make global broadcast of news possible. Hanging from the ceiling was a replica of ATS 1, which made the first live global TV broadcast, and a Bell Jet Ranger, an example of the news chopper which patrols our skies. Also ...

... Upon entering the memorial, there is a statue of Lincoln sitting down and on either side a extracts from what I'm guessing is their constitution quite possibly.. Its quite interesting reading these words and only starting to wonder how this country went so wrong. It seems that country really did begin its history on the right foot, with the best of intentions, and it is quite sad to see where it has ended up.. Maybe they can be restored to this level of morality ...

... weather. I only experienced a tiny bit of the humidity this city is known for in August. The rest of the time, it's been sunny, hot-but-not-too-hot, glorious blue skies and puffy clouds weather. I can only attribute this to the forces that collide when I visit one Washington and am from the other Washington. Because that can get confusing...it seems that people in DC have not heard that there is another Washington besides "their" Washington. Meaning, I have learned to say I'm ...

... left on the yellow topped table next to mine. Her head was low and I saw her disgust with her job by the way she acted. I told her "Thanks, some people don't care." Meaning that most people here in America leave trash and expect someone to clean up mess for them.<br><br> She looked at me, made eye contact, lifted her head and said, "Thanks sir." I laughed and said, "Sir? Thanks TOO senorita, ya do one hell of a job here!"<br><br> She ...

... for the big meal, I was given a small salad and roll that both okay. But the main course were some sort of meal pellets that were supposedly pork. They were hard and had a strange tasting sauce over them. Yummy for sure. Then for desert there was a small slice of cake that had absolutely no taste to it . Not only was the food bad but there was no selection. They ran out of their choice long before they made it to my ...

Well, I am finally back, after 24 hours of traveling. My plain touched ground in Dulles at 12:13am Monday morning. I can not thank all of you enough for all of your support and prayers. This trip was truly life changing not only for the people who's lives we touched, but also for our own teams lives. Guys, 6,946 people accepted Jesus Christ into their hearts as a result of everyone's willingness ...

... walking around Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall, there are many shops in the area, otherwise there is not much to do there, except eat and drink. We wanted to get to Mystic, CT to eat dinner so we left Boston early enough for the 2.5 hours drive. Mystic is a beautiful little town. Very picturesque with many artist galleries, boats, beautiful houses ... and everybody smokes. We ate at a wonderful restaurant called S&amp;P Oyster Company ...

... only slightly concerned when we asked a commuter getting off at the station when he said that there is no car rental places in the area, however he turned out to be a muppet as Hertz was directly opposite the station - big up the random drunk guy in the bar! Good tip. It was well worth the pint I bought him! After attempting, and failing to dry off, we grabbed our big white Buick and headed out, traveling under our own steam for a change! On to New York State!
