As you think about where to donate on #GivingTuesday, please consider The V Foundation for Cancer Research. Their commitment to research contributed to some of the breakthroughs that saved my child. Their integrity is unparalleled. Grateful to everyone there and will always support their work.

As someone who came through the DTH and still does some volunteer work with them, this is very cool -- but for both newspapers. Regardless of which shade of blue you support, this fundraiser brought in $128,087.20 for student journalism. Incredible, a hat tip to all!

Something fascinating happens in your first game of basketball on a new court. Let’s call it an "acceleration." You start running with nine total strangers and get to know them very quickly. Human nature reveals itself through action. (1/)
