Where Work Disappears and Dreams Die
Not all teenagers are as lucky as J'Len Glass. He trusts his parents. He knows they will always tell it to him straight. Yet the 15-year-old, who wants to be a doctor, can't help being skeptical of his elders' veracity—or at least of their memories—when they tell him that his shrinking, economically depressed hometown of Gary, Indiana—Steel City—was, once upon a time, a wonderful place to raise a family. That it had good public schools and well-maintained city parks and streets. That there were department stores, restaurants, movie theaters, nightclubs, and crowded office buildings up and down Broadway, its main thoroughfare. That a young guy could go outside, play some ball, flirt with girls, and not worry about getting killed in a drive-by shooting. That he could graduate high school, and if he didn't want to go to college or join the military, he could just stay put and make a decent living in one of the smoke-belching steel mills that ringed the city and provided paychecks to tens of thousands of workers. That Gary used to be part of the American working- and middle-class mainstream, a place folks moved to and put down roots in—not some decaying, can't-wait-to-pull-up-stakes-and-get-the-hell-away-from-here outpost of the Other America, which these days is just about the only America J'Len sees when he walks out his front door.
"It's hard to imagine the Gary older people talk about," he says early on a Saturday morning as he and several other teenage volunteers, armed with bottles of Windex, prepare to wash windows in a senior citizens' apartment building. The teens don yellow plastic gloves and T-shirts that plead Bury Guns, Not People. "It's nothing like that now. My dad told me how he used to love to play outside. Now there aren't a lot of kids in our area. Everybody has moved away. When you do go outside, you have to watch to see if someone is following you home. There's nothing here for young people. No jobs. No future. I'm leaving as soon as I can."
This is what happens when work disappears and dreams die. A once-bustling American city turns into Gary. A model of industrial might for much of the 20th century, sometimes called "the Magic City" by early boosters, Gary today is anything but. Over the past four decades, the jobs and the people have been chased away as Gary's biggest employers had to grapple with low-cost foreign competition and responded by installing technology that enables two steelworkers to turn out as much steel as a dozen did a quarter-century ago. The five steel mills of Northwest Indiana—including the largest, the U.S. Steel mill in Gary—used to have a combined workforce of up to 100,000. They now employ roughly 20,000 people and are producing as much steel as ever.
Like Flint, Detroit, Cleveland, and Akron, like hundreds of cities and towns across the once-industrial Midwest, Gary is emblematic of the new American poverty, the poverty that descended when the factories closed down. The city is half the size it was in 1970, its population reduced from 170,000 then to 80,000 today. Its poverty rate is 28 percent. A fifth of its houses, churches, school buildings, and other structures are vacant and boarded-up. The hulking steel mills still line the Lake Michigan shore in northwest Indiana, but they've been hemorrhaging workers for decades.
Mary Boner worked in the mills for five years, from 1976 to 1981. She was assigned to the ore dock and was part of a large group of women hired in the late 1970s. Boner's father worked the mills and tried to discourage his daughter from doing so as well. Too dirty, too hot, too dangerous, he told her. "I had two kids, and I was head of the household," she says. "I had no choice."
Before becoming a steelworker, she was barely making minimum wage stitching tarps for cars and boats. The mill paid her $8 an hour more. "I felt economically comfortable for the first time in my life," she says. "I could have things. I could buy my kids clothes. That job just opened a whole other world to me."
She bought a car and in 1977 purchased a house for $25,000. "I was on easy street," she says. Then she got laid off in 1981 and was never called back to work. "Before I knew it, there goes the house," she says. By 1984, she was living with relatives. Today, at 73, she works as a home health-care attendant. "Lots of people would kill for my job," she says.
About 30 miles east of Chicago, Gary was founded in 1906 by U.S. Steel for one purpose: to make steel. "To really understand Gary you have to go back to the origins of Gary and Flint, Michigan, and Youngstown, Ohio," says S. Paul O'Hara, a historian and author of Gary: The Most American of All American Cities. "They were built at a particular time for a particular reason. They were industrial spaces. Their schools, their churches, their pride were all built upon a foundation of industrial labor and wages. Deindustrialization just doesn't remove the wages, the jobs, the pride—it removes that foundation that undergirds the churches, the social institutions. The soul of the city is tied up in industrial work and now, for most people, that work is gone."
The city's tax base has gone with the work. "We base our city services on property taxes," says Karen Freeman-Wilson, Gary's first-term mayor. "But people can't pay their property taxes if they don't have jobs."
The "stated unemployment rate" in Gary, she says, is 9 percent. "But the only way you can get a rate of 9 percent is if you count the number of people who are looking for jobs. There are a significant number of people here in Gary who have never held jobs, who never started looking for jobs, or who have stopped looking for jobs a long time ago. I would estimate our unemployment rate is at least 20 percent."
Indiana changed the way property taxes were assessed in the state a decade ago, shaving tens of millions of dollars off the steel industry's tax bill. "Gary was hit hardest by the change," she says. "We lost $40 million from our budget."
Every imaginable city service and amenity has been affected by the loss of jobs and tax dollars. Gary is currently facing a projected $15 million deficit on its budget of $60 million. Without the revenue from two riverboat casinos on the edge of town, Gary's budget would be $37 million, the mayor says. The sight of cars with Illinois license plates in the casino parking lot gladdens her heart. If enough losers come to town to visit the boats, Gary can keep the lights on for a little longer.
Last year, the lights were turned off for good in the city's main downtown public library. The school district is currently laying off 169 of the city's 732 teachers to make ends meet. Gary has 57 public parks but only enough money to maintain six of them. Freeman-Wilson put out a call asking church groups, high-school students, and social clubs to volunteer to clean the parks. "People have really stepped up to the plate," she says. Next they may have to step up to the curb. Gary does not have a working street sweeper, and at one point the mayor contemplated dispatching people doing community service into the streets with brooms.
The city's population decline means that there are far fewer children in the classrooms, leaving 10 to 12 empty schools that have become the targets of vandals who rip off the wiring and plumbing fixtures in hopes of making a few bucks at the local scrapyard. As she drove through her city recently, Freeman-Wilson noticed a suspicious white-paneled van parked in front of the open door of an abandoned school building. She called the police. "People are desperate," she says.
Once a week since January, when she became Gary's first woman mayor, Freeman-Wilson has opened the doors of her city-hall office for two hours to Gary residents for one-on-one sessions. Each citizen is allotted 15 minutes to discuss whatever he or she wants about life in the city. On a recent spring afternoon, Freeman-Wilson sits in a cream-colored chair next to a matching sofa where a woman is perched, rifling through photographs. Freeman-Wilson takes notes on an iPad.
The woman says she is caring for her elderly mother and that the sidewalk in front of their home is so cracked and uneven that it is dangerous for her mother to walk outside. "I've been calling General Services for years to get it fixed," she says. The woman hands the mayor a photograph of the sidewalk, which looks like it has been blown up by dynamite. The mayor shakes her head as she examines the picture. "I can't sit here and tell you I'm going to fix your sidewalk next month or six months from now," she says. "Unfortunately, we just don't have the money." Vernon Smith, who represents Gary in the state legislature, praises Freeman--Wilson for "surrounding herself with competent people. But she has a major task ahead of her, because she doesn't have the financial resources."
Even a Harvard-trained lawyer such as Freeman--Wilson will do crazy things for love—like run three times to become mayor of Gary, as she did before finally winning last November. Indiana's former attorney general, Freeman--Wilson, who was born and raised in Gary, remembers the city that J'Len's parents and grandparents tell him about. That Gary, she says, is worth fighting for. That Gary can make a comeback. "I want to rebuild Gary on existing assets," which include Gary's proximity to Chicago, its easy access to highways and Lake Michigan, and its underutilized airport.
"There is a real sense of indebtedness I have to Gary because whatever success I've achieved is attributable to people in Gary," she says. "And I like a challenge. The biggest challenge I have is instilling hope."
Then Gary's new police chief, Wade Ingram, walks into her office.
"How are you doing, Chief?" the mayor asks.
"Fine until a minute ago," he says. "We just had a drive-by at 43rd and Massachusetts."
Ingram was one of the mayor's first hires. A police officer for more than three decades, most of that time as a member of the Chicago Police Department, Ingram says he had never been to Gary until he was hired to lead its 246-officer department. "I don't know the city very well yet," the chief says. "But I do know human nature after 32 years as a police officer. Poor, uneducated, lacking economic opportunities—it's a deadly mix. I think jobs will make a big difference. But around here there aren't any."
When he arrives at the scene of the shooting, an ambulance is speeding the 21-year-old victim, shot in the leg, to the hospital. The street is filled with police officers, the stoops with young men. Suspicion and fear hang in the air.
"Hey, Chief, we need an explosives dog," an officer says.
"We've got to come up with some more money first," Ingram replies.
"I still have eight puppies at home," the officer says. "I'll give the city a good deal on them."
Just then, an officer chases a woman out of the middle of the street. She was walking through the crime scene. The police had not cordoned off the area with yellow tape.
"Don't we have any?" the chief asks.
"I just sent one of the guys to my car to get what little I have left," an officer says.
"We go through a lot of tape," the chief says, shaking his head.
The food bank at First African Methodist Episcopal Church is busier than ever. The church opened its food bank in the 1960s, when fewer than 60 people used it in an average week. Now, about 150 people visit the bank weekly. Recently, 175 people came. "Before, the food bank for most people was a supplement," says Maurice Preston, who oversees the bank. "Now it's a necessity. Nobody's working. Everybody is laid off."
As the need increases, the Sunday offering keeps getting smaller and smaller at the church. It's hard to tithe when your pockets are empty, says the senior pastor, the Reverend Emmanuel Vaughn. There are also fewer people in the congregation to give. "We have a lot of people moving away, especially the young people, looking for work," he says. "There's an age gap in the congregation. We have the very young and the old. We're missing the middle."
So far, Catherine Hopson, 20, has decided to stay, at least until she completes college at Ivy Tech in Gary. She had a job during the Christmas season at a big-box toy store in a neighboring town. No such stores exist in Gary. When Christmas ended, so did her job.
"The few jobs that are available," she says, "are filled by older people."
"Even McDonald's employment is extremely competitive," Vaughn adds.
There is no movie theater in Gary. No Gap or Apple Store. Starbucks, it seems, has an outlet on every corner in the world—everywhere, that is, except Gary. Freeman-Wilson says she can count the number of restaurants on two hands and have plenty of fingers to spare.
Gary has been shrinking for decades under the weight of so much hardship. When journalist Marshall Frady visited the city for Harper's in the late 1960s, Gary had a much more diverse population than it has today. "Its population over the past 60 years," Frady wrote, "has accumulated almost exclusively through great migrations that attended the mill's boom times, so that now it is made up of a kind of global tumbleweed: Poles, Czechs, Irish, Swedes, Lithuanians, Greeks, Armenians, Assyrians, Mexicans. More recently, there was a surge of Negroes from the South, who were shortly followed by the New Oakies: Appalachian whites, wandering up from the gullies and honeysuckle into the clashing steel and treeless asphalt, lank and quiet with a certain blasted look after a while in their pale blue eyes."
Today, Gary is 85 percent black, 5 percent Latino, and 10 percent white. Much of the white population fled the city shortly after the election in 1967 of Gary's first African American mayor, Richard Hatcher. "There were key structural changes happening in Gary at this time," says O'Hara, the historian. "People were moving out of the city. The suburbs were growing. Racial segregation was becoming more clear, particularly as capital pulled out, not just factories but banks, stores, everything." Most of the steelworkers still employed by the plants—who make among the highest blue-collar wages in the country—have fled to the suburbs, too.
The story of Gary's racial transformation obscured the story of its deindustrialization. "The people fleeing the city were so obsessed about race that they didn't notice, or they didn't care to notice, that mechanization was taking away jobs," O'Hara says. "Within the American imagination, job loss, poverty, and crime in Youngstown and Flint is seen as tragic and unfortunate, when we so rarely apply that to Gary because we think in terms of race. There is no one talking about Gary the way Michael Moore talks about Flint."
The men's homeless shelter in Gary is named Brothers' Keeper. It is located in a single-story gray building that used to be a tire outlet store on Broadway. Unlike so many other buildings on Broadway, at least the old tire store is being used for something more than a house for ghosts. For the shelter's longtime executive director, Mary Edwards, "being our brothers' and sisters' keeper is the only way Gary is going to survive, because no one else is looking out for us."
Edwards has been working at the shelter for 24 of its 26 years of existence. At one time, she says, there were as many as ten shelters and flophouses where a man, down on his luck, could find a meal and a place to sleep. "Those places are all gone," she says. "No money to keep them open. The government has downsized the role it plays in the lives of poor people.''
Two of those luckless men, shelter residents Levi Gildon, 60, and Charles Byrom, 58, sit in Edwards's office and talk about the Gary they remember and the Gary they know today.
"You could leave a job on Monday and have another job by the end of the week," says Gildon, who worked as a heavy-machine operator at construction sites around town. "There were so many little plants and factories, all kinds of feeder plants to the mills. Now they're all gone."
The men fall silent for a moment. Gildon shakes his head and sighs.
"They left a downtrodden city behind," he says. "It's almost to the time there should be a eulogy spoken over the city."
"It's not dead yet," Byrom says. "But it's definitely on life support.''

"and at one point the mayor contemplated dispatching people doing community service into the streets with brooms. "
I lived in Germany in the late seventies. Everyone swept the street in front of their house. It was part of the social contract. Here it is an extreme measure. Guess what? Menial jobs at high wages are a thing of the past. Of course 35 years of incompetent city government is not helpful either. Maybe the govt. can't create jobs, but it sure can destroy 'em.

I was born & raised in Gary in 60's & 70's. Seems everyone worked in the steel mills after highschool. My father did for 30 years. I did for 6 months before joining the Air Force and moving to CA. That was the best move I ever made. I developed a successful IT career (Networking) and am now comfortaby retired. I must say, the education I received at Wirt HS was superior. I think because there was discipline. We got swats in the hall for misbehavior. It is sad to hear what it has become.

I grew up in NW Indiana (though not in Gary). Some of my friends' parents worked for the mills, so I remember the hardship they endured when the mills began laying off. This is an interesting article . . . from a human-interest standpoint. But where, I wonder, is the analysis into why Gary has turned into the city it now is? The mills didn't just "decide" to close down and shed jobs. And the city of Gary didn't just "decide" to turn into a huge abandoned slum. Competition from foreign steel? Perhaps. But mere competition shouldn't be enough to completely wipe out an entire social and economic structure. The story is good, but it shouldn't be about Gary's current plight. It should, instead, be about how Gary ended up the way it is. That's the story that needs to be told.

I clicked the link to read the entire article on American Prospect. The article is a depressing portrait of the social wreckage of that city as jobs disappeared. But the analysis itself is weak, with snippets of data insufficient to explain how and why this happened to Gary.
If we go on the info provided by the article, it seems that automation is thh jobs-killer in Gary, as steel production itself continues: "Over the past four decades, the jobs and the people have been chased away as Gary's biggest employers had to grapple with low-cost foreign competition and responded by installing technology that enables two steelworkers to turn out as much steel as a dozen did a quarter-century ago. The five steel mills of Northwest Indiana—including the largest, the U.S. Steel mill in Gary—used to have a combined workforce of up to 100,000. They now employ roughly 20,000 people and are producing as much steel as ever."
But the longer version of this article at the American Prospect gives anecdotes about the many feeder factories that have disappeared. What happened to all those jobs? Was that automation as well, or offshoring, or just switching to plants in "right to work" anti-union states? Presumably the USWA would have been strong in Gary, but unions are not mentioned at all in the article.
So we read of another American city falling into decay and despair, a story repeated in hundreds of American cities, like Bridgeport CT near me that used to have 500 factories and is now depressed and crime-ridden.
Whatever the mix of causes, America needs a revitalization program, we need to massively build new employment and rebuild our commons (infrastructure, education, science and R&D, etc). We need the right policies from government, and the public investment through public sector spending, but that seems fiscally and politically very difficult until we can grow the GDP and tax base, and that will have to be done through growing the private sector economy, especially manufacturing, which is the heart of wealth-creation in any economy.
A Balanced Trade policy, such as using Import Certificates equal to the value of exports, would force multinational corporations to move their off shored operations to the USA if they wish to continue selling their products in the USA. The genius of that would be it requires virtually no increase in public or consumer spending, instead it would simply divert $600Billion every year from trade deficit consumption to American-made consumption. That would be a huge stimulus to American manufacturing, directly creating millions of living wage jobs and indirectly, through the multiplier effect, millions more.
Then we'd have the much higher GDP and tax base to support revitalizing our infrastructure and institutions of science and learning, our Social Security and retirements and health care. And by creating all those millions of jobs, we'd also drastically decrease the need for social net spending like unemployment insurance, welfare and other social services for the poor as poverty itself would be eliminated.
When will the leadership of this country start caring about the people of this country?

But when he appealed from Ihe superintendent tu the piefiideDt uf the read and found his appeal In vain: when he had lioeu informed in turn by nil the uRI.'ials. that no fiirlhtr privl. leges in the way of free ti'an.'<p<)rla.ion would be given him, he was a sorely disappointed man. Ilo had aeipilred the pass haliil i:i a severely oliiouh' form. It had be come aeute. To tie conipelled to pay for a benetit to whi.'li he felt enllllej seemed to him n Kliat iiijusllce. The many privllesrs lie iiad enjoyed in the past did not eoiisole lilm noAV. Dick was sui generis; his enemies said, nun ci>ni|ios mentis, his friends apoh.igetic ally. Hint he was nut "all there." It might be well 111 e.\plaiii why nick Raymond coii.ildi red lilmself ellgilile to the privilege of free transportation It began twenty year* ago. when C'lil- rngo was more of a village than nt present, nnd nillroad passes eiuonr- nged travelers to anvertlse fncilllhs ot travel. Hick was a news gatherer on a country newspaper whieh liad weight iu its eoniinunity. He had a vivid imnglnalion and a facile pen. an.l pleased the olflelnls of a most iiuporlaiit railroad, one of the oldest In the West. He wns a young man who hnd plenty nf that coinniodlly known us "iheek" )r "brass" in those days, now ilassed as "ucrve." Tile suavity of his manner, nnd Ills inler.'stlng method as a wrller- iip of topics of value in railroad circles saved .'llm from bcoiiiing a b.ir.', but he sometimes exccede.l his privileges, ns when he asked the general superin¬ tendent of the raiiroa.l for a pass for himself nnd brother. That otllcial sat back in Ids desk chair and looke.l at Dick. Willi n.'ver changed countenance nt the sarc.'isllc (lUesllon: "I km w wliiil yoii have dun.' for Ihe road. Mr. Raymond, but may 1 ask what your brother Is doingV" Dick had the saving grace at Hint moiiient of alisullile slIeiKi'. Th.' su I erintenilent saw that the yi ung man was conscious of the fact that Ik- bad gone too far. but. like all railroad men of that day, win bad known hard lines themselves, hc was good-nnlured and kind'li<<urled, aud he mnde out Hie pass "«ud luothir." And he wns glad when al a social gal!icri:ig of railroad mngnntes. where stories I'anie in nt the wine and walnut lourse, he toll the story as nn illustration of coloKsal cheek, aii.l anctiier olllciul of the s:ime road ijirtfPiSS "Did he tell .Ton iilioi I Iliat broilier''" ".Not a word."

If injureil. he was to huve « .ertaiu sum every week until well, ami If he dii'd, more niuney ihnli he had ever dreamed of having, and ihe beneficiary was his crippled brother. Dick hnd grown ol.l and gray, but hc kept his good heart and Ills foolish smile, wore cheap clothes nnd gave his crippled waril every comfort, and no one knew except one other nnd himself what a "demnltion" struggle life hnd been. And it looked darker than ever as he started home pennUess. Started, bu^ did not go there. It Is al¬ ways the unexpected thnt happens, ^et this wns ihe very thing which Dick was planning for, but uot in such a hurry. A rear end collision with a milk train sent him to the liest hospl. tal In the city, and his Insurance paid all Ilia expenses, including the crippled brother. And the railroud did the rest, the corporntlon Inwyer waiting on the sufferer with n proposition of settle¬ ment on the most generous terms. Whereas, If Dick had been riding on a Iiasg the company would hnvc been I'lonernted from blame or obligation. His friends visited him nt Ibe hos¬ pital, finding him In splints and bnnd- nges. his head bound np. one eye bndly dnninged, but a smile six Inches Ijng across his white visnge.

THE STRIKE SEfTLENENT Mediation Favored by the Leaders of Boston's Labor Conflict.

Jlass.—The representatives of K|"eat niercauiile liodles of the city, sec¬ onded by the chief exi'cutiveg of the city and Stnia In conference wilh Ihe recogniied leaders of organ!n>tl lalior, have endeavored to eud Ihe great strike of freight liandb'is nnd kindred trades, represented iu the Allied Freight Transportniion Council. .\lK>ut 40.000 men were directly or Indirectly involved in the strike. Mediation was decided upon at a eonferenee In the otflce of (Iovernor Crane. The decision was Immediately reported to the .Vllletl Freight Trans¬ portation Council nt a special meetiug and unanimously Indorsed. Th.' pro|xised settlement was tho outcome of an expi'.'ssed determination of (Governor Crane and tbo.se repre¬ senting Hie merchants of Boston to bring all possible pressure to bear iiiion the New Y'oik. Xew Haven and Hart¬ ford Railroad Company to adopt the rules In force upon the Boston and Maine Railroad, foriiiilding freight handlers to unload teams ex.'cpt at Ihelr own option nnd risk. The Brine Transportation Compnuy. the loading aud nnbin.ling of whose li.m-uuion teams precipitated the strike of the New York, New Haven and Hnrttord freight haudleis, did not figure nl all lu the proposed settlement of Ihe present coulroversy, and as fnr as that company is conivrned the seu- limenl against it on the part of the la¬ bor unions Is as bitter as ever. I'nder the new arrangements, however, union inen will not t>e required to load or un¬ load its teams. It waa found, however, that il was one thing for the Strikers' Committee to declare the strike olT. but quite an¬ other thing to make the laboring men believe tbut the matter hud beeu set¬ tled sntlsfnctorily. The feeling that they hnd been badly beaten was bit¬ terly emphasized when upon reporting for work the men found tbat hardly seventy-five iier cent, of the old men could "get their Jobs bai'k. This wns especially the case wilh the freight handlers, clerks nnd longshoremen. At the three big raiiroa.l yard:. ;mi enor¬ mous amount of frelglii was handled, but on the docks iiraellcally nothiug was done. As the dny wore on things assumed a better look, nnd the longshoremen voted to return to work. The freight handlers formerly eniploye.l liy the New Y'oi'k, New Haven and Hartford and the Boston and Albany Roads voted not to return lo work unless they were tnk.'U back in a body. The. irool handlers took similar acliou. The Expressmen's I'nion voted to go back. The freight hnudlers of the Boston nnd Mnlne Railroad voted to return, but Iniisinucb ns the compauy already had a nuinlier of men at work In their places, many of the old employes did not succeed in regaining their former positions. It Is lielloved tliat eventual¬ ly they all will regnln their ohl posi¬ tions. The teamsters bad Utile troutile in getting Ibeir old places again and very Utile grumbling was iieard from ihat (juarlor.

Saxony is involved in three sectors: transport + logistics, energy + the environment and medicine + healthcare. While Porsche and BMW may be the names on everyone's lips, the German Biomass Research Centre (DBFZ) has also made its home here. However, the most important area of the economy is the service sector, which also benefits Leipzig as a centre for logistics.
In transport + logistics, the clusters automobile & supply industry and logistics and services are among the most visible sectors of the Leipzig economy. Porsche's decision to build its new factory for the Cayenne in Leipzig was followed two years later in 2001 by BMW's selection of the city for the construction of its 3-series saloons. Consequently, an ever growing number of suppliers are now moving into the areas surrounding these production complexes.
After successfully attracting automobile industry, Leipzig is increasingly focusing on its role in logistics as the link between international markets. Logistics now forms an independent cluster in the regional economic structure and is developing into a future-oriented network that incorporates service providers, supply industries and consignors as well as the public administration, chambers of commerce, associations, research and educational institutions. However, the service sector is the largest sector of the economy. With 89 companies operating in the financial sector and 50 branches of insurance companies, the city is the most important financial centre in Central Germany. The history of the Leipzig Trade Fair extends back over 800 years and it is believed to be the oldest trade fair in the world.
There are very few locations where the energy + the environment sector have such a broad base in such a small area as in and around Leipzig. The variety of products and services in the area of energy and environmental technology is highly influenced by VNG – Verbundnetz Gas AG and the Leipzig-based European Energy Exchange AG, the only trading exchange for electricity, natural gas, CO2 emission rights and coal in Germany. The German Biomass Research Centre (DBFZ), the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research and the utility company Stadtwerke Leipzig GmbH are respected giants in the sector. The region is also home to the Lippendorf power station operated by Vattenfall, which uses the latest technology for generating electricity from lignite, and one of the world's largest solar power stations with an output of 40 MW.
Companies in the energy and environmental sectors also profit from the diverse range of research institutions in the immediate vicinity.
The healthcare industry and biotechnology provide the core areas of the medicine + healthcare field of competence. A number of advanced research institutes are settled here, for example in medical biotechnology, method-oriented fields of bioprocess technology, biosensors, research into active pharmaceutical ingredients, cell and tissue culture techniques, regenerative medicine, gene technology, biomaterials research, medical-technical systems and industrial biotechnology. The University of Leipzig, Leipzig University of Applied Sciences (HTWK), Leipzig Graduate School of Management, Leipzig University Hospital, the Leipzig Heart Centre at the University Hospital, a number of Max Planck Institutes and the Fraunhofer Institute for Cell Therapy and Immunology (IZI) work together in networks to maximise the region's potential, which is also a great attraction for major international medical congresses and regular well-known sector meetings.

A word used for people in relationships that is more than like but don't love each other yet. They'll do almost anything for the other person. They put each other in front of themselves and talk to each other about EVERYTHING. They're not just dating, they're best friends. And they both know even if they don't date forever they still want each other in their lives because they know how important they are to each other.

This Sunday, pastor Tom MacLeod will give his sermon at the Sag Harbor Methodist Church just like any other Sunday; however, this week's sermon will be particularly unique. He will be speaking to his congregation about the project Imagine No Malaria, a multi-faith effort to eradicate the disease on the continent of Africa by 2015. The United Methodist Church in America is committed to fundraising $75 million and had partnered up with organizations such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the United Nations Foundation.
The organization has already made a huge impact in slowing down the number of deaths caused by the disease. According to imaginenomalaria.org, which cited statistics from the World Health Health Organization from its World Malaria Report 2011, malaria claims a life every 60 seconds. Just a few years ago that number was showing every 30 seconds a child died due to the disease. Through prevention, treatment, education and communication, and working with communities to have nets, embedded with a mosquito repellant in the fabric, that hangs from the ceiling and tucked under the bedding of children has helped reduced Malaria's impact by half.
Though MacLeod notes there is still more work to be done through removing stagnant ponds of water and eliminating drains, providing early treatment is also key in eliminating any residual effects from the disease. MacCleod's daughter was infected after working for a non-profit organization called Action Against Hunger four years ago when in the Congo,; however, she was fortunate enough to get treatment within 48 hours and does not have the disease any longer.
"It really hit close to home, especially knowing the disease is preventable. I am so blessed my daughter was able to find a hospital and was treated," MacLeod said.
The Sag Harbor Methodist Church has pledged to raise $20,000 for the cause. MacLeod does the math.
"There are about 8,000 year round residents (in Sag Harbor). If each person contributed 50 cents a year for four years, two dollars approximately, we would meet our goal of $20,000."MacLeod said. "The trustees have agreed for every two dollars raised they will match it with one dollar."
MacLeod hopes in bringing the congregation up to speed with what the United Methodist Church is trying to accomplish that it will inspire others to work for the cause in their own homes.
"We are called to a mission of compassion and action and we can make a very visible impact in the world we live in," said MacLeod who plans on showing a video clip during the service. "I don't want this to be in the hands of one or two people."
Instead MacLeod wishes the local effort to expand from the church, to Sag Harbor to all the way to the whole East End.
"It's more than just taking care of our own needs and instead we are focusing our energies outside of the building," MacLeod said. "100 percent goes right to the initiative, there is no administrative cost, and contributions from the public are going to be multiplied from the trustees."
MacLeod admits he is an optimist and sees the challenge in a positive light.
"I don't see it as an impossibility," MacLeod said. "This is something we can definitely do; we can meet or exceed our goal. People will see the smallness of what we are asking and see the bigness of what they are doing. That a little bit can have a huge effect and that together we can make this happen and not have it be a burden on anyone."
As one of the many initiatives to come, The Sag Harbor Methodist Church will be having its second carwash this Saturday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the church parking lot asking a suggested donation of $10.

The Hottest Oldster Husbands
Men — yes, men — crave more foreplay, according to a study from the University of New Brunswick, Canada. In the study, women assumed their partner wanted 13 minutes tops, while lo and behold, men claimed that 18 minutes was ideal.
In other words, it pays to take your sweet time and indulge in the sensual smorgasboard foreplay can be. Here are some fun ways to prolong the agony and get him all riled up!
"When Cassie's in the mood for lovemaking or for reminding
me how sexy she is, she makes sure I see her undress. After
raising her skirt above her thighs, she removes her stockings, running her hands along her calves as she pulls them down. Then she slowly unbuttons her blouse, giving me sexy looks between each button. Finally, she undoes her bra and cups her breasts as the straps fall off her shoulders. It makes me nuts."—John, 40

Starkville Academy's Kenny Coats and Michael Temple await with great anticipation for the Mississippi Association of Independent Schools All-Star soccer match on Thursday in Jackson.
When the Volunteers saw their season end in the first round of the playoffs, Temple thought his days of playing high school soccer had come to an end.
It was with excitement that Temple learned he had made the All-Star team.
"It's just a continuation and a chance to play with some of the best guys in the state," Temple said.
Temple is glad to be sharing the experience with Coats, a teammate and friend.
Coats said he was honored for the opportunity to play with some of the best soccer players in the state.
"These guys are voted to be the top skill level on their team," Coats said.
Starkville Academy coach Robert Gardner said the recognition for Coats and Temple is deserved because they were first choice players for the Vols the entire season.
"They were first-team selections every time I filled out a team sheet," Gardner said. "We're definitely going to miss them but wish them nothing but the best. We hope they do quite well at the All-Star game and know it's something they are certainly going to enjoy."
Coats and Temple leave for Jackson today and prepare for the 5 p.m. start on Thursday.
Temple was able to get a preview of what an All-Star atmosphere was like from some of his friends that were football All-Stars.
"They said they got to hang out with all the guys and just to meet guys from all over the state," Temple said.
Even though Starkville Academy's season ended with an early exit in the playoffs, Coats looks back at it with a positive attitude.
"It was tough to start out with, but at the end, we got to know each other a lot better and we got to become more of a team," Coats said. "We came through a lot better at the end. We were proud of the way we played at the end."View more articles in:

It's the new Lotus Exige S LF1
81 cars for 81 Formula One victories: is this Lotus's way of saying they won't win again?
Posted: 10 Jun 2014
This is the brand new Lotus Exige S LF1. It is a limited edition version of the Exige S, decked out in a livery inspired by the Formula One team's legendary race outfit.
And the 'limited' aspect isn't because Maldonado has stacked the others, but because just 81 cars in this special livery are being built - one for every victory (up to the end of 2013) using the Lotus F1 name. Which surely begs the question: has Lotus given up on 2014?
We'll park that one for now. The car? As you can see it's decked out in black and gold inside and out, with red accents, an 'LF1' logo and exclusive Lotus badging about the nose and wheels, as well as the seat headrests and backs.
Each one will also feature a plaque numbering a specific race from Lotus' history, from the first ever victory at the Monaco GP in 1960 (#1), right through to Kimi Raikkonen's win in Australia last year (#81). There's also new leather and something called 'technical' trim. Yeah, us neither.
You also get Pirelli P-Zero Trofeo tyres wrapping matt gold 18-inch rear alloys and 17s at the front, two-piece high performance brake discs, red brake calipers, and a carbon fibre engine plate.
Oh yes, the engine. Nothing's been tweaked, sadly, but then it's still a riot: a supercharged 3.5-litre V6 producing 345bhp and 295lb ft of torque, propelling a lissom 1176kg. The Exige S will hit 0-62mph in four seconds flat, and run on to a top speed of 170mph. Which is possibly quick enough to outpace Pastor and Romain's F1 car this year.
The Exige LF1 will cost you £62,900. This, or Kobayashi's F1-inspired Caterham?

"Letting people have your paintings is like letting them wear your clothes." So said Florine Stettheimer, who was intensely private about her art, displaying it mainly to a select group of artist and writer friends. Her typically quirky mix of fantasy and reality is present in Heat—a family portrait of her mother, herself (lower right), and her three sisters gathered to celebrate Mrs. Stettheimer's birthday. The painter Marsden Hartley wrote of her work: "It is as if these beings had come to bloom freely and clearly in spite of alien temperature and alien insistence, perhaps chiefly under glass if you will, subject to special heats, special rays of light, special vapors, but there they are replete in their own beauty, their own hypersensitized charm."
