The first thing that struck me about Francine Kiefer was her intensity. She was the Monitorâs congressional correspondent at the time, and I remember thinking Iâd never seen anyone get so excited about their beat. She happily gushed about the staff at the press gallery, readily gave advice on getting quotes from members of Congress, and constantly assured me that the Hill overwhelms everyone at first.
I was also struck by how Francine could sustain such passion after decades on the job. She s been a reporter for about 30 years, most of them with the Monitor. Besides Congress, sheâs covered the fall of the Berlin Wall, 9/11, and multiple White House administrations.

Soul
“Life is full of possibilities. You just need to know where to look. Don t miss out on the joys of life.” Joe (Jamie Foxx voice)
Joe, the hero of Pixar’s stunning animation, didn’t know that about life until he took the journey in Disney Corporation’s Soul. Affirming the everyday business of life and finding one’s purpose in that state are what this warm and insightful animation is about, without emphasizing the theme too much or speechifying too obviously.
At the beginning, Joe is faced with a decision to accept a full-time middle-school band directorship or play jazz with a well known singer and her combo. Only when he experiences the end of his life where he should join the quiet line to walk into the Great Beyond does he experience in the Great Before the chance to find his spark of life and his purpose in that life.
