The museum had a placard next to it (which I will reprint in its entirety): Marble inscribed statue base. Roman, ca. 160-170. Fletcher Fund, 1926 (26.60.70a,b). The base is said to have been found near Rome, but the inscription is in Greek.

I spoke briefly about AFP (Association of Fundraising Professionals) to set the stage for a brainstorming session for the Russian fundraisers. They are really excited about creating a professional association of their own and it was amazing to watch them. Fundraising is still so new and so young here that there aren’t many resources for them.

Steve MacLaughlin, Director of Internet Solutions, Blackbaud. Have you been following the Net Neutrality debate? You should. It might dramatically impact your nonprofit. There's little doubt that most of us who use the Internet every day have at least heard about Net Neutrality. When pressed for details, though, many in the nonprofit community can't offer much of a definition. Worse, most have no idea that it stands to severely restrict the way they communicate and serve their constituents.
