This Week in Philadelphia (TWIP) for 10-12

An interesting week coming up in Philadelphia. You can meet the CEO of Martin Guitar. You can bowl. You can learn about the economic outlook. You can get happy, overload your brain, and learn about French fashion. You can meet witty women, successful women, and CEO women. You can also learn to be healthy and ethical -- always good things.

Oh, and it is my birthday.
