Happy Sunday! This week we had our parent-teacher conference at Perry’s preschool. I love hearing about what she does during the day and her overall experience. I also had the chance to catch up with good friends. A lot of our friends live in North Jersey so it’s so nice to have some quality time together. Have you been to The Love in Philly? It’s one of the main places I recommend to friends and readers visiting Philly. Enjoy this week’s Sunday Edit and have a wonderful week!

You may pay more or be denied coverage.” It seems light-hearted but be careful before you post information about yourself that could be used against you.

Once centers of Soviet propaganda, Moscow’s libraries are having a revival, including the Fyodor Dostoevsky Library. “Until recently, that culture seemed doomed to become a relic of the analog past. After Russia’s rocky transition from Communism and the rise of the Internet, there seemed little use for the more than 400 city libraries as public spaces fell into neglect and Russians found new sources of information. Unexpectedly, Moscow’s libraries are now experiencing a transformation from musty houses of Soviet propaganda into bustling work spaces for 21st century city-dwellers.”

A surgeon reflects on death, life and the incredible gift of organ transplant. “But I’ll never forget that interaction and most that I’ve had with the donors: They hung on every word. … They wanted to know about the recipients.
