<div align="center"><img width="200" height="134" src="/UserFiles/File/Phil_and_Chevy2(1).JPG" alt="" /><br /> </div> <br /> On Thursday, May 10, 2007, I appeared before the House Subcommittee on Healthy Families and Communities about the importance of daily, health-and-wellness-based physical education in the nation's fight against childhood obesity. I testified alongside actor and wellness advocate Chevy Chase, Georgia middle school student and activist Chandler Converse (2006 recipient of the PE4life National Youth Service Award), as well as several other influential individuals.

Phil -- I watched the web cast of the testimony and you were awesome! I think you won the award for most follow-up questions!
