Profile Information

I am a(n): individual

City: Philadelphia

State: PA

Zip: 19102

Date I Joined Fight With Tools: July 10, 2008

Gender: Male

Sexual Orientation: Hetero

Racial/Ethnic Background: Caucasian

About Me: I live right outside of Philadelphia with my family. I work for DUCOM, which is a means to an end because I long to do something greater. Right now though I have to settle for paying the bills and making change in my spare time.

How I would like to change the world:: I find that so much can be done BETTER. I cringe at the faults of humanity and see the beauty that we can create. I want open the minds of the ignorant. I want to change the way people solve problems, removing them from the vacuum. I'm willing to start small because that's how everything starts, but my goal is to change the world in big ways.

Tools I Have: I'm currently getting my MPH, Master's in Public Health (Just a thesis away!). I work in the healthcare industry and have access to PH faculty and students. I have access to professionals on the medical and administrative levels in healthcare. I have the ability to communicate, organize and handle logistics in my sleep. I would bet that I'm one of the most resourceful people you know.

Tools I Need: I need to know who else out there is willing to help. I need more time, a lot more time.

Favorite Bands: Flobots, Bloc Party, Spoon, System Of A Down, Rage Against the Machine, Weezer, Beastie Boys, The Maccabees, Jack Johnson, Sublime, Roots, Pearl Jam, The Killers, Green Day, Franz Ferdinand

What issues are you most passionate about?: yes

Tim DeChristopher addressed the court and the judge today

Tim DeChristopher addressed the court and the judge today. This is what he said:

Thank you for the opportunity to speak before the court. When I first met Mr. Manross, the sentencing officer who prepared the presentence report, he explained that it was essentially his job to “get to know me.” He said he had to get to know who I really was and why I did what I did in order to decide what kind of sentence was appropriate. I was struck by the fact that he was the first person in this…

If only I had an enemy bigger than my apathy I could have won

I heard this line in a Mumford and Sons song, I Gave You All, and it made me think about a large part of the younger generations in this country that don't seem interested enough in the world around them. I know that the young people on this site are a bright, but small shining light among the youthful American mass that's absorbed more by material possessions, social standing and hormone driven obsessions. But I ask myself, as I enter the early middle of my life, can this country survive…

Congress says no to healthcare for 9-11 responders

I just got to see this clip on the daily show, and I also watched

Weiner's full podium time. Congress's actions are shocking, completely

disgusting, and makes me shake with anger. It's all political bullshit,

involving parliamentary back and forth... THAT'S NOT THE

ISSUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE ISSUE IS THAT CONGRESS HAS JUST DEFEATED A

BILL THAT WOULD HAVE GIVEN $7BILLION FOR HEALTHCARE COVERAGE FOR 9-11

FIRST TIME RESPONDERS! AND YOU KNOW WHAT'S WORSE, FIRST… Continue

I think witnessing the temptations presented by this generation holds us each more accountable. I don't know if we could have Transformed into the individuals we are if we grew up with as many distractions; I think we are charged with inspiring…

How old is your daughter? I have 5 and 6 year old daughters that have yet to be truly exposed to all the nonsensical distractions. The more I think of their future, and the world I want them to grow up in, and fight for, the more energy I have to push forward.

At 6:57pm on January 15, 2011, New American said…: Hey Shepp. How's it going? I think you messaged me a while ago. Sorry i haven't gotten back to you. I've been MIA because of school and work at UCLA. I just started my MPH program in CHS in the Fall and am just loving it. So many great minds and people trying to make a difference in the world. Unfortunately, it doesn't leave time for much else. So how are things going out in the PA?
