Enjoying the break from class. I've seen 3 great movies in the last 2 weeks: Up In The Air, Sherlock Holmes, and Away We Go

Thoughts, photos, videos, and the occasional Tweet
Hi, my name is Jared Johnson (bio). I live with my wife in the Washington, DC area.
By day, I am a project manager for Academic Technologies, a department of The George Washington University. By night, I am an MBA student at The George Washington University School of Business.
I enjoy planning the implementation of new technology and reading about topics in the field of management, theology, sustainability, politics, and emerging technologies. I volunteer at my church as a sound engineer and a small group leader, I am a hack photographer, and a sports fanatic. I explore these topics and more on my lifestream site.
You can reach me via email at jaredwj(at)gmail.com or on social hubs like Twitter, Facebook and Friendfeed.

Visual Guide to Charity Giving from The MintLife Blog
The MintLife Blog posted this visual guide to charity giving in the US earlier this month.
Here are some of the points that I found interesting:
- Americans give $300 Billion to charity each year, but we give over $400 Billion to Walmart.
- If a tax payer donates $1,000 and pays a 35% tax rate, the donation saves $350 in taxes.
- It would take 3 Frenchmen or 7 Germans or 14 Italians to equal the charitable donations of 1 American.
- When calculated as a percentage of income: Those who earn less than $20,000 become twice as charitable as those who earn $100,000 even though they donate one fourth as much.
