[UC] Global Vigil for Peace on Sunday March 16th
MoveOn.org and the Win Without War coalition, together with Archbishop Desmond Tutu and many faith-based organizations around the world, are calling for a vigil to be held the night before President Bush seems determined to declare war. Here in West Philadelphia, Tabernacle United Church is organizing a vigil. The vigil will be held in Perelman Quadrangle, behind Houston Hall (which is above 34th St. on Spruce) on the Penn campus. It will be a 45 minute silent candlelight vigil and people are asked to bring their own candles. We are hopeful that other local churches might want to gather at their own locations and process to the Quad. Tab. United and University Lutheran people will gather at 37th and Chestnut and process to the Quad at 6:45pm. The vigil will start in New Zealand and travel across the globe. In one day there are already over 500 locations and Move On is currently swamped with people organizing vigils in their area. It's time for the world to come together in this moment of darkness and rekindle the light of reason -- and of hope. It's time to renew our commitment to building a positive world for our children. With your help, we will see the first candlelight vigil to sweep around the globe on the evening of March 16th. Together, we will lead the nations of the world away from an unnecessary war and toward a peaceful and prosperous future. This is a key moment in history. Be a part of it.

[UC] PENN - did good for neighborhood athletes
The Palestra is the best forum for Basketball in the city. The halls are lined with thoughtful exhibits which highlight the history of college basketball in our region. Most of us West Philly natives have fond memories of at least one High School championship, surrounded by our teen peers. Some may even remember Wilt Chamberlain's only true High School loss (to West Catholic) at the Palestra in 1953(?). Saturday, March 8, was an especially fun night. PENN won an undivided IVY TITLE by beating Cornell. Spectators spilled on to the court, the net was cut down, and Senior Athletes (Cheer Leaders and Ball Players) were feted with noisy applause. For one group of local kids in 5th-8th grades, this was a very special night. PENN's Athletic ticket office made a generous gift of tickets to the Scholar - Athletes of St. Francis De Sales elementary school. Kids and the volunteers and parents who support them were able to see a great game and its exuberant finale. There may be no better incentive to kids to play hard and work hard than to be rewarded with such a fun experience. Several kids made promises to work toward High School and College Ball Playing. The Volunteers and Parents were gifted with a reward of quality time at a fun event with their charges. The tickets arrived with no cover letter, so I don't know whom to thank, but... someone took the time to read my request someone put the tickets in the mail, and the kids and volunteers had a TERRIFIC time. So, to the Athletes and Ticket Office Staff, we send a big Thank you! I hope at least some of you are on the list, or that this is forwarded to the people who work in the Ticket Office. Best!
