Kudos to Nestle Waters North America!

Nestle Waters North America gets the meaning of life and livelihood! A stellar representative of the private sector by committing to improve and protect North American watersheds through 2015 and standing by every human deserves free or affordable access to a minimum 50 liters of clean water a day.


Water First

Congratulations to Amy Hart for bringing to light, Charles Banda, and his successful efforts to provide clean water to the people of Malawi! Just another individual doing her part in helping reach one of the core Millenium Development Goals!

Totally Tyler! At Bluestockings!



















This is not your average book signing...Three wonderful excerpts from Tyler's new book "Your Boyfriend and Other Guys I've Kissed" and a bonus preview from his upcoming book! Justin Luke's comic dating disasters, touching accounts of self discovery from Justin Hernandez and Jackie Summers, an all too fabulous performance by The Gay Gourmet and his Gourmettes, and a 5 minute teaser from the cast of Drama Queenz is just what the LES needs to get the night rolling!
