Comments about Interactive ''Laptop'' Planetarium:
This was a gift for my 4yr old grandson. He already knows alot of facts about the solar system. This is NOT a laptop. It's a plastic board that recites facts about the solar system. You can answer true or false...that is the only interaction. It is not a challenge for him and was a waste of money in our situation. The product is represented as a laptop and it's certainly NOT!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
From National Geographic:We appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear that this item did not meet your expectations. Kindly contact our customer service department at email@example.com if you prefer to return it for a refund or exchange.

very disappointed
By LOR
from Laconia, NH
It gives data in a monotone voice that doesn't allow for any interaction. The buttons down the side have very limited function. The image shown in the ad NEVER changes because it's a sticker. There is no option for interaction. This is really, really disappointing product. It reminds me of the early computer equipment we had 30+ years ago. I wish I could get my money back on it. My 5 year old insisted he wanted it but it's not something that can maintain his interest and he hasn't touched it since Christmas Day. I won't order anything from NG catalog every again. They are over priced, poor quality products that don't meet expectations. This gift I gave to my son is just embarrassing to NG.
From National Geographic:We appreciate your taking the time to share your thoughts, and we are sorry to hear that this item did not live up to your expectations. Everything from the National Geographic Store is unconditionally guaranteed, and we want you to be happy with your order. Please contact our customer service team at email@example.com if you prefer to return this item for a refund or exchange.

poor quality
By Mom of 3
from Hillsborough, NC
This was a gift for my 9 year old son, and it sounded like a nice idea. He has a new telescope, so an interactive planetarium sounded interesting. My main disappointment is that it does not work. When he turned it on, only a few buttons worked. I thought it was stuck in a demo mode and did not have batteries. However, the batteries were there and fine. When you turn it on, it says in a crackly voice "press a button." You are supposed to press a planet, but the buttons are invisible under the stickers. Most we could not find, but sometimes if we pushed really hard on Venus, for example, it might let us learn some facts (by pushing a visible button at the side) about the planet. Or, it might tell us about the wrong planet, or it might not work at all. Frankly, even if it worked perfectly, I think it would have been a little too dry. But, mainly it just did not work well at all. The customer service representative I talked to was very helpful about how to return this gift item and get customer credit.

Great for Special Needs Children!
By Special Needs
from Woodland Park,CO.
We love this for our Special Needs Son! He's in 5th grade and loves to hear all the great info. The only thing as far as cons: Is that there is no volume button and can be too loud. But other than that great overall! I can't wait for him to take this to school and share with his teachers and friends!

Big "interactive" reaction!
By Jim Z
from Orange County, CA
This product dissappoints. No visual interaction only press a button and hear a fact about a planet. This is not worth the money. Returned promptly. I expected better from National Geographic.
From National Geographic:The Interactive "Laptop" Planetarium includes an interactive quiz game. However, we regret that this product did not meet your expectations. Everything from the National Geographic Store is unconditionally guaranteed, and we want you to be happy with your shopping experience.

Tool Test: The 5 Best Edgers To Tame Your Lawn
Even after two and a half days spent comparing six heavy-duty string trimmers at the edges of trails, barns, outbuildings and stone walls, no victor had emerged. So I started them all and began cross-testing them, one at a time, along hundreds of yards of horse fence. When a machine started to vibrate or its cutting effectiveness declined as I leaned into the thick grass and weeds beneath the bottom rail, I turned it off. Rounding a bend with the last two trimmers, I closed in on an overgrown drainage ditch. Scything into it, one trimmer whispered a hint of vibration and fatigue. The other did not. Of course, not everyone has a horse farm to keep up, but whether you need a tough trimmer or simply like solid equipment, read on to find the best machine to help you maintain your property.
Price: $250
Weight (Fueled): 14 pounds
Decibels (A-weighted): 107
Engine Size (CC): 21.2
The Echo began the test with some vibration, but it settled in nicely and ran smoothly, cutting with nearly explosive power and torque. As its performance improved, we just drove it harder and harder until it outran everything else along the horse fence. Add other features such as a robust skidplate and excellent service access points, and this is a machine at home where the tall grass grows.
Dislikes: We didn't have trouble with the gap between the bevel gear and the line head, but it looks vulnerable. Also, we think the Echo deserves a momentary stop switch (one that flips back automatically to run position). Instead, it has a sliding switch with two fixed positions that you have to double-check every time you start the machine.

Fall in love with color, all over again: Crisper color from pure pigments Creamier feel from nourishing honey nectar Lipcolor so rich, so stunning… it's sensational 48 Captivating Shades
Not a huge fan on these lipsticks, simply because of the odd stench. It has the exact smell of Barbie doll hair (if you remember, you know what I'm talking about. that odd plastic-y smell?) and I cannot stand it. I'm not sure if it was just a bad batch or what, but if you are picky about the smell of your products, I recommend to not get it.
This had a beautiful shade, after making several passes on my lips to build up the color. Not very moisturizing or long lasting but layered with liner it held up a bit better. Not bad but not that good either imo.
These lipsticks were the first ones I've ever used and I love them. They dont dry our my lips at all which I appreciate. The texture is creamy and moisturizing and it has a slight gloss when applied. Personally I find the color to be pretty pigmented, plus with so many colors you'll definetly fond one that compliments your skin color perfectly! The smell is great as well, I would describe it as a sweet cherry scent. The only thing I didnt like was that this product didnt last as long as I would like but it might be bcuz of the way I apply it.
When I was young, I asked my mom to bring me back something from Las Vegas (she was on a trip). Anyhow, she came home with Maybelline very cherry and red revival lipsticks. I LOVED THEM! I wore them all the time. This makeup product holds a special place in my heart and on my lips! Amazing pigmentation, all around great product. Xoxo~ Kenna 💕💎
I love this lipstick so much!! The color is gorgeous and it goes on really well. It lasts almost all day and it is pretty water proof. Would recommend this product to anyone!
Very pigmented lipstick! It feels amazing on the lips, as well. The staying power is pretty great. I haven't got around to purchasing more from the ColorSensational line, but I need to!
Very pigmented and long lasting. Also it feels amazing on the lips! Maybelline lip products are definitely one of my favorites. I have to purchase more from the ColorSensational line!
So i have been on a hunt for a good fair priced red lippie and like many others i came upon this one. When i first saw it i wasn't sure but i just had to get it and see. Well lo and behold i loved it. It came out better than i expected.
It really brings out my eyes and is not too dark for my fair skin. It's a mix of purple berry and magenta for a nice, feminine shade. I always worry about drying my lips out, but just put on a balm before applying! It does transfer but that's normal. Good drugstore lipstick!
I like this lipstick, but I can tell the ingredients aren't natural because I get allergies if I use it. Overall it's a nice lipstick but dries fast and color fades fast.

5 Tips You Should Know Before Creating Your Web Vido
A web video production gets the ability to tell a persuasive narrative about your organisation. However, before you actually take into consideration your short video, you really need to think about animation, actors, locations a script and what you actually want your video to say.
It begins with training – understanding the information you want your audience to hear and see.
1. Place in the very first 15 seconds one-sentence that explain what you do and why it is important enough for people to want to buy off you – this shows the audience what to focus on and will keep them engaged for the rest of the clip.

Adding to the "Jersey Shore" star's understated glamour were exposed bad tats, a surgical scar and black fabric loosely strung on to resemble some sort of dress shorts thing.
It's one of her breast looks ever.

POTSDAM Democratic congressional candidate Aaron G. Woolf is being taught more about the district he hopes to represent by the man he hopes to replace, an experience he describes as a kind of apprenticeship.
Rep. William L. Owens, D-Plattsburgh, did a regionwide tour of factories and small businesses with Mr. Woolf on Thursday, and began the tour with his official endorsement.
Im going around the district because I want people to know me, Mr. Woolf said.
Mr. Owens said the two will continue to campaign together in the months to come. Mr. Owens will retire from Congress after this year.
He said his successor will learn how to help businesses at home as well as in Congress.
A lot of that is not related to what you can do in Washington, but to what you can do in the district, he said.
The two started their tour at Potsdams Agway, 14 Pine St., where they spoke to owner Daryl T. Kolanko about the various challenges his business faces.
Mr. Kolanko and Mr. Woolf spoke about how the shrinking number of small farms over the last few decades has dramatically changed the way Agway does business. Mr. Owens offered Mr. Kolanko some advice about how to ship products back and forth from Canada more easily.
Mr. Kolanko, a registered Republican, said he will need to learn more about Mr. Woolf and the other congressional candidates before making his decision, but he appreciated the gesture of visiting his store.
I dont have an answer yet, Mr. Kolanko said when asked whether he plans to support Mr. Woolf in November. I dont know about him. It was gracious of him to come by.
He said the best thing a congressman could do to help his business is simply to improve the regional economy, creating more jobs and more paying customers.
From Agway, Mr. Owens and Mr. Woolf headed to Northern Music and Video, 29 Market St.
Mr. Woolf spoke with owner Christopher J. Smutz about the competition retail outlets face from online stores.
He emphasized his own small-business experience. Mr. Woolf owns an organic food store in Brooklyn.
Mr. Smutz said he does not yet know for whom he will vote, but said Mr. Woolf is taking a step in the right direction by meeting with area businesses.
I think its a great precedent that theyre out and about, Mr. Smutz said.
The best way a congressman can help local businesses, he said, is by focusing on exactly what these guys are focusing on right now.
He also said he would be in favor of an incentive to buy local, as well as a north country highway to bring more equipment and customers to the area.
Mr. Woolf said he wants to see the north country focus on coordinating road, rail, and water traffic to help boost the economy, and wants to improve the transportation system here.
If it moves, it improves, and Im a big advocate of infrastructure in all forms, he said.
Before running for Congress, Mr. Woolf was best-known as a documentary filmmaker. His most popular documentary, King Corn, examined the industrial farm industry and questioned the wisdom of government subsidies to large farms, particularly corn producers.
When asked his opinion on the Farm Bill, Mr. Woolf said he supports a bill that would support large farmers and small farmers alike. He did not answer questions about what such a bill would look like, or which producers should receive government subsidies.
Mr. Owens played a major role in crafting the most recent Farm Bill, and said supporting U.S. farmers is a matter of national security, preventing the United States from having to import large quantities of food from abroad.
Mr. Owens and Mr. Woolf agreed that jobs and the economy are the regions top priority, and will continue to be a focal point of Mr. Woolfs campaign.
Clearly, jobs and the economy have to be where people are focused, Mr. Owens said.
After leaving Northern Music and Video, the tour continued across the street to Sergis Italian Restaurant, 10 Market St. Later, the two traveled to Malone to tour Alice Hyde Medical Center.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
Marcel Hirscher is used to finishing first. But from now on the 23-year-old will already be first when he lines up at the start of every race – the first World Cup racer in history to race his own range of equipment. The Atomic Marcel Hirscher Icon Series bears all the hallmarks of the man after whom it was named. Because Hirscher, a passionate motocross and freestyle motocross fan, has indelibly stamped his personal mark on the logo and all of the artwork at the Atomic development division in Altenmarkt.
"From now on, not only can I ski the way I am," says Hirscher, "but I now also have the skis that are the way I am."
Special edition original Hirscher equipment
In the World Cup the new Icon Series will be exclusive to Marcel Hirscher. Otherwise, though, anyone can use the original Hirscher ski or Hirscher helmet – as long as they're quick enough. There are three models of ski and one helmet featuring the original Hirscher design.
Redster and Troop in signal red
The highlight of the new Icon Series is Hirscher's new Redster Marcel Hirscher SL MTL: beneath the transparent race base is a black and signal red design. An absolute World Cup first, inspired by Hirscher's aggressive style of skiing, where the crowd usually gets to see only the underside of his skis, is, precisely, the underside of the ski designed by the man himself.
Junior racers can emulate their hero with two junior ski models featuring the Hirscher design: the Redster Marcel Hirscher JR II ETS and Redster Marcel Hirscher JR III ETM.
Hirscher's helmet is also distinctive: the Troop SL Marcel Hirscher with special red and yellow paintwork comes in two sizes – and fills every fan with the absolute confidence that they are using the very same equipment as the best skier in the world.
The limited Marcel Hirscher Icon Series will be available in limited numbers from selected specialist retailers world-wide.

2007 Uwe Kolbe
Uwe Kolbe was born in 1957 in East Berlin. His father was a sailor on the inland waterways. After graduating from high school and completing military service, he studied at the Literatur-Institut Johannes R. Becher in Leipzig from 1980 to 1981. His first volume of poetry, Hineingeboren, appeared in East Berlin in 1980, but the increasingly critical nature of his writing led to a ban on publication in the GDR in the early 1980s. During these years, he edited the illegal journal Mikado together with Lothar Trolle and Bernd Wagner. In 1985, he was permitted to travel abroad and lived in Hamburg from 1987 until he could return to Berlin after the fall of the wall. Today, he divides his time between Berlin and Tübingen, where he is Director of the "Studio Literatur und Theater" at the University of Tübingen.??Recent publications include the essay collection Renegatentermine (1998), the poetry collections Vineta (1998) and Die Farben des Wassers (2001), Der Tote von Belintasch, Kriminalgeschichte (2002). Thrakische Spiele, Roman (2005), and another volume of poetry ortvoll. Gedichte (2005). ??Uwe Kolbe has received numerous prizes, including the Nicolas Born Prize (1988) the Tübingen Friedrich Hölderlin Prize (1993), and the Preis der Literaturhäuser (2006). He was also writer-in-residence in Austin, Texas in 1989, from where he observed the fall of the wall.
2006 Gila Lustiger
Modes of Memory: 2nd Generation Responses to National Socialism and the Holocaust in Literature.
Max Kade Visiting Scholar/Artist. Gila Lustiger (born 1963 in Frankfurt/Main) is the daughter of the historian Arno Lustiger. She studied German and Comparative Literature at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and now lives and works as a book editor, translator and author in Paris. Her other novels are Die Bestandsaufnahme , 1995 (The Inventory , Arcadia) and Aus einer schönen Welt, 1997. So sind wir was shortlisted for the German Book Prize 2005.
2005 Mariella Mehr Daskind
Mariella Mehr is a writer of great intensity and a uniquely stark, unsentimental but highly poetic language. Many of her works have children as protagonists, children caught in loveless, oppressive, and abusive circumstances, who see no other way than to resort to criminal acts as a way of survival.
Mariella Mehr, the 2005 Oberlin writer-in-residence, was born in 1947 in Switzerland and is of Roma (Gypsy) background. Her work brings new perspectives to our notions of how minority writers transform very painful personal experiences into compelling literary works of universal meaning. ?Her poetry, plays, and novels have won numerous awards. In 1998 she was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Basel.

2004 Katja Lange-Müller was born in East Berlin in 1951. Originally a nursing aid in psychiatric hospitals,
her experiences led her to become a writer. Insightful and spontaneous, her writings frequently delve into the pain
and sorrow of our world but avoid sentimentality by relying on a Berliner's brand of wit. Lange-Müller left the GDR in the 1980s
and has lived in Mongolia. Today she resides again in Berlin, where she has been a member of the Berliner Academie der
Künste since 2002. Among the honors she has received are the Ingeborg-Bachmann-Preis (1986) and the Alfred-Döblin-Preis
(1995). She will be holding a reading and discussion of her latest book, Die Enten, die Frauen und die Wahrheit this March.
The readings can be found below:
2003 Peter Stephan Jungk: "Jerusalem Revisited"
"I was born in California thirty years ago. My mother is from Vienna, my father from Berlin, both sole survivors of the Genocide. I grew up
in America, in Britain, France, Germany, and Austria, where our maid took me along to Sunday Mass from time to time. My Judaism wasn't exactly
kept hidden from me, yet to spare me the horrors of the Holocaust it was a secret which when unveiled would provide no benefit. During my first
trip to Jerusalem I spent only a couple of hours in a Torah school; curiosity had led me there. The rabbi at the yeshiva reached out his hand
toward me and said, 'Promise me you'll come back here.' And I did return." (From: Preface to Shabbat)
Shabbat. A Rite of Passage in Jerusalem is the book about Jungk's year of exploring the city and studying at the Torah school, exposing
himself to the most religious of lives in the most religious of cities. Now, twenty years later, the author will read from Shabbat and discuss
the very different Jerusalem of today and his life as a Jewish author, film scriptwriter, translator, and essayist in Berlin, Vienna, and--for the
past fifteen years--in Paris.
Stephan Peter Jungk's books include:
Prose works include:
Stechpalmenwald (1978) - Rundgang (1981) - Franz Werfel Eine Lebensgeschichte (1987) - Tigor (1991) - Die Unruhe der
Stella Federspiel (1996) - Die Erbschaft (1999) - Der König von Amerika (2001).
In English translation: Shabbat (1985) - Franz Werfel : a Life in Prague, Vienna, and Hollywood (1990) - The Snowflake
Constant (2002), his most recent book, has just been shortlisted by the Arts Council England for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize 2003.
2002 Doron Rabinovici: "Gedenken ist Vergessen"
"Like Elias Canetti, Rabinovici has chosen to write in German rather than in his mother tongue. It is in German that he reflects on Germany and the
Germans--their Jewish heritage, their efforts to come to terms with the Holocaust, their anti-Semitism, and the tenuous relationship between culture
and politics." (The Jury of the Jean Amery Literaturpreis)
Doron Rabinovici is an Austrian writer, historian, essayist, and political activist. He was born in Tel Aviv in 1961 and moved to Vienna in 1964,
where he studied medicine, psychology, ethnology, and history at the University of Vienna. He received his PhD for his study of the Jewish Council in
the Third Reich.
He is the founder of the Viennese Friends of the Israeli Peace Movement "Shalom Ashav - Peace Now." The latest among his numerous prizes and grants
is the prestigious Jean Amery Literary Prize awarded in October 2002.
His books include: Credo und Credit. Einmischungen (2001).
Instanzen der Ohnmacht. Wien 1938-1945.
Der Weg zum Judenrat (2000).
Suche nach M. Roman in zwölf Episoden ( 1997).
Papirnik. Stories (1994).
Österreich. Berichte aus Quarantanien. Ed. Isolde Charim und Doron Rabinovici (2000).
2001 Irina Liebmann: "'Es ist alles ganz anders, aber das war meine Reise'- Deutsch-deutsche Reflexionen"
"Some critics seem tempted to pile Liebmann's travel colleagues Heine, Fontane--even Laurence Sterne, the avatar of all sentimental journeys--onto the
back seat of her little Japanese convertible. But I bet Irina Liebmann parked the three with a beer at the next autobahn fast food joint and set off on
her trip to nowhere in particular . Naiveté and persistence are this author's tactical weapons, confusing Germans in east and west alike: Where's she
coming from--over here or over there? .'It's all totally different, but that was my journey,' is the motto of the most beautiful travel book in many
years," (F. R. Fries, junge Welt. Trans. Ittner)
Irina Liebmann, one of the most successful contemporary German authors was born in Moscow in 1943, grew up in Berlin, Merseburg, and Halle, and
studied Sinology at the University of Leipzig. In 1988 she left East Berlin, and she now lives on an old farm in Mecklenburg. Her poetry, plays,
essays, and novels belong to the so-called Wendeliteratur, literary reflections on life in the former GDR, German unification and the
post-wall syndrome.
Her books include:
Berliner Mietshaus. Begegnungen und Gespräche (1990), the discreet yet revealing portrait of life in an East Berlin tenement house in the
year 1980.
In Berlin. Roman (1994).
Mitten im Krieg (1989).
Letzten Sommer in Deutschland. Eine romantische Reise (1997), the poetic, thoughtful, and witty account of a journey across Germany.
1996 Barbara Neuwirth: Nocturnal Gardens
"I dreamed of villages with tigers prowling for humans. I and he--my other self--ran across open spaces, broke into a house in search of refuge.
But it was all rotten, brittle wood. The door I had opened no longer fit flush in its frame, the inner walls collapsed from our breath,
the windows wheezed blind and dark. We fled across a high fence that had a crown of barbed wire. We didn't care as long as it kept our
enemies at bay. The only accessible place seemed to be the apiaries. But there was just a narrow opening behind them for us to creep in. Too
narrow for both of us." (From Nocturnal Gardens. Trans. Ittner)
Barbara Neuwirth is the author of several collections of feminist utopian and
fantastic short stories; editor of Frauenforschung [Feminist Studies]; until 1997 editor of the feminist publishing house "Wiener Frauenverlag/Milena
Her collections of short stories include:
In den Gärten der Nacht [Nocturnal Gardens]] (1990)
Dunkler Fluß des Lebens. [Dark River of Life] (1992)
Im Haus der Schneekönigin [In the House of the Snow Queen] (1994)
Tarot Suite. Ein Episodenroman. [Tarot Suite. A Novel in Episodes] (2001)
1995 Gabrielle Alioth: "The Women's Ark"
"A remote valley near the Irish Sea, a lonely house overlooking a small overgrown garden and a meandering stream. An idyllic scene, or so it seems
to the young couple who buy the house, replace the roof, and restore the walls around the garden . First it's only a vague sense of threat, the
nightly sound of footsteps on the gravel path, the shape of a man determined to settle in the farthest corner of the garden. Reassembling the
historical fragments of the three generations of women who lived in the house, the new owners also come under its spell.
As in her previous novels Gabrielle Alioth knows how to create suspense and carry her readers away on the dense stream of her language
with "a dreamer's certainty." (Berner Zeitung. Trans. Ittner)
Gabrielle Alioth was born in Basel in 1955. She studied economics, art, and politics
at Basel and Salzburg Universities. From 1979 she worked for the Prognos Company and Operations Research at Basel University. Alioth moved to
Ireland in 1984. Her first novel The Fool (1990) was awarded the Hamburg Literary Prize for a First Novel and broadcast as a radio play.
Her books include:
Wie ein kostbarer Stein [Like a Precious Stone] (1994)
Die Arche der Frauen [The Women's Ark] (1996)
Die stumme Reiterin [The Silent Rider] (1998)
Die Erfindung von Liebe und Tod [The Invention Of Love And Death] (2003)
Books for children: Das magische Licht [The Magic Light] (2001); Im Tal der Schatten [In The Valley Of Shadows] (2002).
1995 Thomas Rosenlöcher:
"Dresden, November 1989: A Diary"
Rosenlöcher has been working as a freelance author since 1983. He is one of the most prominent of "a phalanx of young talents from East
Germany [who] take a cool, self-assured look, spiced with sarcasm and wit, at everyday realities both now and in times past." (Wilfied F.
Schoeller, secretary of the German P.E.N. Center). His novels and poems have won many major literary awards, such as the Hugo Ball-Förderpreis
in 1990 and Tübingen's Hölderlin Prize in 1999.
His books include:
Die verkauften Pflastersteine - Dresdner Tagebuch [The Sold Cobblestones: A Dresden Diary] (1990)
Die Wiederentdeckung des Gehens beim Wandern - Harzreise [The Rediscovery Of Walking When Hiking: A Harz Journey] (1991)
Die Dresdner Kunstausübung [The Dresden Exercise Of Art: Poems] (1996)
Ostgezeter - Beiträge zur Schimpfkultur [Eastern Whingeings: Contributions To The Culture Of Bitching] (1997)
Am Wegrand steht Apollo [Apollo Is Standing At The Wayside: Poems] (2001).
1992 Richard Wagner: "A German in Rumania--A Rumanian In Germany."
"In the elevator there'd once been a mirror. One day it was gone. Screwed off. Since then there was no mirror in the elevator. And no one
asked about it either. The buttons on the control panel in the lift had floor-numbers. One day these numbers were rubbed off. Who'd done it
was a mystery. . No one wrote the numbers back on, so no one could obliterate them. You'd enter the lift and count the buttons before pushing
one. And the mirror--had there ever been a mirror?" ...(From: Exit. Trans. Ittner)
Richard Wagner grew up in the German-speaking Banat region in western Rumania. After emigrating to West Germany in 1987 he moved to
Berlin. "His gaze has a barbed hook: His views of the West always include the observer--and this is somebody from the East who has learned to
scrutinize everything and pat it down for substance." (Marko Martin, TAZ).
In his highly autobiographical Ausreiseantrag (1988) Wagner chronicles the struggles and observations of Stirner, a "tolerated"
German-Rumanian author stifled by a deceptively functional dictatorial regime and the petty corruption of its citizens.
His books include:
Rostregen. [Rust Rain] Poems (1986)
Begrüßungsgeld. [Welcome Money] Novella (1989)
Die Muren von Wien. [The Landslides of Vienna] Novel (1990)
Schwarze Kreide. [Black Chalk] Poems (1991)
Der Himmel von New York. [The New York Sky] Short stories (1992)
Giancarlos Koffer. [Giancarlo's Suitcase] Novel (1993)
Der Mann, der Erdrutsche sammelte. [The Man Who Collected Landslides] Short Stories (1994)
In der Hand der Frauen. [In The Hand Of Women] Novel (1995)
Lisas geheimes Buch. [Lisa's Secret Book] Novel (1996)
Im Grunde sind wir alle Sieger. [We're Basically All Winners] Novel (1998)

EAST LANSING -- Brady Hoke took a bath of boos, but kept on walking, finding a seat beneath a Michigan State fan in a green frog hat. Matthew Stafford tried for anonymity and failed -- "MAT-THEW STAF-FORD!" the student section screamed. Mark Dantonio heard thunderous cheering as he walked down the aisle -- you'd have thought the next pope had just been chosen.
And all this was before warm-ups.
Big Game, Big Names. Here was The Basketball Game in our great state, Tuesday night, Michigan versus Michigan State in their first-ever battle as top 10-ranked teams. All signs pointed to a close game.
But signs are just signs.
Big Game, Big Men. The Spartans won this thing -- "crushed it" if you're under 25 -- because right from the start, their frontcourt played huge. Forward Branden Dawson was in the paint so much, he had to shower with turpentine. And center Derrick Nix so easily had his way with whomever Michigan put on him, it was like watching a Mack truck against an orange cone.
On top of that, MSU had a choking defense that was a force field from the perimeter on in. Michigan had such trouble getting the ball inside, a two-point jump shot seemed like real penetration.
The Wolverines, despite Hoke, Lloyd Carr and ranking alumnus Gov. Rick Snyder in the stands, seemed unsure and unsteady, turning the ball over 16 times, with shaky passes and dribbles off the leg.
"We On" their shirts read.
"You Off!" the crowd screamed.
MSU comes up big
"It was like the perfect storm," MSU coach Tom Izzo said afterward. "We played about as well as we can play and they did not play so well."
One look at the final score (75-52) pretty much confirmed that. You could cite all kinds of reasons for this Michigan State blowout, but you have to begin with Nix.
The senior co-captain was on fire. He carries an awful lot of beef up and down the floor, but on Tuesday he was positively airborne. He backed in. He powered for rebounds. He went up right, got blocked, stayed with it and laid it up lefty. He finished with 14 points, five rebounds and three assists, and I swear a few times I actually heard his footsteps.
"That was one of my best games," he admitted. His performance was equaled only by Gary Harris (17 points, three assists, three steals). The freshman guard out of Indiana not only shot the lights out from three point range, but played a relentless defense that helped lead to an awful night for Michigan's backcourt.
"This is how I've always been..." Harris said of his calmness. "...relaxed and focused at the same time."
To be honest, it's hard to find fault with anything the Spartans did Tuesday night. Their shooting was great, their defense was unrelenting, they fed their big men, they shot key three pointers, they fed off the insanity of the Breslin Center yet moved with the comfort of a well-worn sneaker.
With just under seven minutes left in the game, the Spartans were winning by 30 points.
Thirty points? Against a team that, just a blink ago, was ranked No. 1 in the nation?
Big Game, Big Surprise.
U-M falls down big
Which leads us to Michigan. How would you deal with its performance Tuesday night? There's not enough Tylenol in the world.
"That's the worst we played in a long, long time," U-M coach John Beilein said. One loss is one loss, that's the good news; the bad is that there have been two such losses in U-M's last four games -- all of them to top 10 teams. The Wolverines (21-4) are likely to fall out of that group now, and are in dire straits when it comes to any dreams of a Big Ten title.
Perhaps most concerning to U-M -- in addition to how guards Tim Hardaway Jr. and Glenn Robinson III disappeared Tuesday night (take Trey Burke off this squad and the sails start flapping) is the way MSU's big men plowed through them. The Spartans aren't the only team in America with a frontcourt.
A season-low 52 points, a season-high 16 turnovers, by far the most lopsided loss of the year? Said Beilein, "We couldn't get anywhere we wanted to get to."
I'd be surprised if they made it back to Ann Arbor without having to change buses.
Big Game, Big Blowout. You can't judge a season by one night, and these teams will meet again in the first weekend in March. It should be a lot closer.
It couldn't get any further apart.

Extra points
Free Press sports writer Joe Rexrode breaks down the scene in East Lansing for the first game between U-M and MSU as top-10 teams in the AP poll:
HERO: Too many choices on the MSU side pretty much everyone played well but Derrick Nix took command of the game early from the post. Gary Harris was lethal from outside all night. And dont forget reserve guard Denzel Valentine, who turned in several big plays.
GOAT: Tim Hardaway Jr. has been on a tear for the Wolverines of late, but Harris and Branden Dawson combined to hold him to just two points on 1-for-11 shooting. Not many of those shots were clean looks, and Hardaway was swarmed when he tried to get to the rim.
CELEBRITY SIGHTINGS: Seconds after Michigan football coach Brady Hoke took his seat, the MSU student section began to chant: Fat Tuesday! Hoke was joined by defensive coordinator Greg Mattison and former coach Lloyd Carr. A few rows behind MSU, Lions QB Matthew Stafford and his girlfriend, Kelly Hall, took in the action.

If you were to approach Hannah, the new African pygmy hedgehog at the New York State Zoo at Thompson Park, you might find the 3-month-old could employ her natural instinct to hide from predators and curl up in a ball.
However, that shyness does not last for long.
Once she realizes youre OK, she will not stand still, said Joli Reynolds, the zoos education director. Shes wiggly.
The zoo was recently donated the hedgehog by a private breeder in the Rochester area. After a 30-day quarantine period at the zoo, Hannah made her first public appearances late last week.
The hedgehog will be used for small events, such as school appearances, educational camps and birthday parties at the zoo.
On Monday afternoon, Hannah was taken out on the grass outside the zoos administrative office for the first time, relishing the opportunity to quickly scurry around or inspect Mrs. Reynoldss sneakers and pants legs.
I think shes enjoying it, Mrs. Reynolds said.
The species is native to southern Africa, in grasslands and savannahs. The animal primarily eats bugs, with its diet also including mealworms and crickets, and special formulized meals. At less than a foot in length, the hedgehogs size could be compared to a guinea pig.
Mrs. Reynolds said Hannah had a pinto coloring, a rare pattern that meant she had spots of all-white quills among her multicolored exterior.
In captivity, she said, Hannah could have a lifespan of more than a decade.
Hannah replaces Malachi, the zoos previous hedgehog, who died this summer of natural causes.
Video of the hedgehog can be seen at http://wdt.me/hedgehog.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
Many people can't sleep for many reasons. For some it is worry. For others it is anxiety.
But for some, like Kevin Johnson in March of 2012, it was excitement. Excitement about a business idea that he thought could really take off.
His mother, Toni, was worried about him. Once he didn't sleep for 72 hours with this thing, this idea stuck in his head.
Finally, though, he figured it out, and while there are still some sleepless nights, his idea is off the sleepless ground of his mind and running.
It is called LiL Billboards.
Johnson, an entrepreneur major at Utah State University in Logan and a native of Carbon County, began the idea by thinking about what he and his partners could do to promote their small business on 100 North in Price, an enterprise called the Game Hub.
"I was trying to think of a way we could market without spending a lot of money," he said. "I started thinking that maybe if we could put some digital frames around town in various businesses that we had good relationships with that might be a way to do it."
But the idea grew and grew. He started to realize how expensive that would be and he needed to find a way to fund it. He also moved beyond frames to flat television screens. He did some exploration of other companies doing similar things in other places and found that they charged a lot for their service. Coming from a small startup background he wanted to some up with something that any ma and pa or big box store could afford.
He thought community.
"The high costs of some of the companies doing something similar was very high," he said. "I thought we should be a company that would do more than just suck up money, but one that built the economy of an area, especially that of small business."
What he wanted to do was make something available in Carbon and Emery counties that was not offered anywhere else in the country. He made plans to put screens in as many businesses as he could for free and then run ads for various businesses on them, giving the hosting businesses a good percentage of the advertising fees at the same time.
"Someone told me those dreams sounded like I was going to give away the cow," he said. "But I needed this project to be of mutual benefit to me and those that are working with me."
So he had an idea but not much money. His first seed money came from a relative in Utah County who had invented the Cricket Scrap Book Machine. He met his uncle at JCW's in Lehi and over peppermint shakes they agreed that his uncle would give him some start up cash.
For the next year Johnson did research and development on what would work best and on a financial plan to get the business going.
During that time he entered a "Pitch" competition in Logan where inventors and entrepreneurs tried to sell their ideas to a group of successful business men and put his plan on the table.
"I blew it pretty bad because I forgot some of what I was going to say and had to look at a que card," he stated. "But afterward a number of the investors that were judging came up to me and told me what a great idea it was and they were interested. That really inspired me to go ahead."
He also made his pitch to the marketing director for Utah State, trying to talk them into putting some of the screens on campus.
"He told me that he felt like he was in the movie The Social Network," said Johnson. "That lit the fire."
But the thing and the money that put him over the top to actually get the business running was local to Carbon County. It was the Business Expansion and Retention Program, or BEAR as it is known.
"They had never invested in a pre-revenue company before," said Johnson. "I went to see Delynn Fielding and he really grilled me about the idea for about 45 minutes. Then he got me before the BEAR board."
The meeting with the board went very well and they gave him a very substantial amount of money, although it took him about six months to get through all the paperwork and hoops.
This March the money came and he began calling on local businesses.
"We really just got started and we already have 18 screens in 17 locations," he said.
The LiL Billboards are located everywhere from offices to retail outlets to the King Koal Theaters to USU Eastern.
Johnson and his partners in the business, Troy Olson and Brandon Armstrong, have a unique focus on what they are doing. They want advertising to be brought to the masses of small businesses and on the entire ecomomic well being of the community.
"There are three things we want to do that are different," said Johnson. "First we want to focus on the community rather than on industry. Second is our growth method. We want to install screens in as many places as we can while returning a good amount of what we get for the advertising to the businessess that are helping us to grow. And third we want to be able to fit any busineses budget."
Johnson says his goal is to make the process duplicatable, something he can eventually grow to the Wasatch Front. He says that he wants people to go onto the LiL Billboards Facebook page and like them with photos and other items and some of those will be put up on the billboards as fillers.
In May Johnson approached the Sun Advocate about the possibility of a partnership.
"We want more than just advertising on the screens, we want some good solid local information and news," he told the paper at the time.
Now the two are teamed up, with Sun Advocate editor and former television newsman John Serfustini hosting minute long newscasts on screens all over the county. The paper produces a number of the newscasts weekly and uploads them as soon as they are ready.
Johnson also said that Armstrong has been instrumental in building ads for placement on the screens for local businesses.
But again he pointed out he doesn't want the business to go to nuts yet, he still has some to learn and some kinks to work out. But his emphasis remains the same regardless.
"We are trying to create an advertising outlet that will serve everyone that wants in," he said and then added, "Just like we would want at the Game Hub."

Comments about Jupiter 5070 Quantum Series Marching Euphonium:
Used this horn during Pacific Crest audition camp for 2012. It sounds great honestly. I use a 5gw mouthpiece and it helps with the sound. It has a dark tone, its loud, tunes great at 442 hz, however, because im used to drum corps hand positioning, the right hand thumb ring really seems useless except in pistol position. The third valve slide ring is very useful but makes it feel awkward since im used to not having one. I own a Dynasty m575 silver Euphonium (good horn) and i prefer and recommend the Jupiter much more. This is a great horn
right hand thumb ring?, 3rd valve slide ring makes the feel of it awkard, i like the trigger as oppsd to a left hand thumb ring
Great sound!! Dark and loud
Still a bit expensive, honestly, but still a great price for a great horn
Comments about Jupiter 5070 Quantum Series Marching Euphonium:
I used this marching euphonium while I was in Macy's Great American Marching Band. It played very nice with a dark tone and had nice response. The only problem I found was that the finger holes for the right hand were far apart and it was difficult to hold/march with sometimes. With the short experience with it, it seemed to be a very good horn and I would consider buying it in the future.

POTSDAM - The Potsdam Central varsity baseball team relayed a pair of big innings into a 10-2 win over Massena Central in the lone NAC Central Division matchup completed on Wednesday.
The game started on Tuesday but was called after less than one inning due to rain and the teams pickedup where they left off. The Sandstoners took early control with a four-run outburst in the second then answered the only two Massena runs in the top of the third with a decisive five-run barrage in the bottom of the fifth.
Any time you beat Massena its a good win, notched coach Chris Donah after his squad improved its early-season record to 2-0 while spoiling the Raiders season debut. I thought we played well all-around today. We got solid pitching. We didnt make any errors and we did a good job of putting the ball in play.
Junior Will Coleman limited the Raiders to just three hits in tossing a complete-game gem that included 16 strikeouts and four walks. Rory Corcoran (5H, 4K, 2BB) lasted into the fourth inning in taking the loss. David Phillips (7H, 2K, 0BB) closed out the game in relief.
Coleman and battery-partner Andrew Ace anchored a balanced Potsdam offense with three hits apiece. Coleman drilled a pair of doubled, scored three times and drove in a run while Ace drove in a solo run and scored another. Devin Delaney and Morgan Sutliff both had RBI-singles and scored solo runs. Ben Miller also poled an RBI-single. Brandon Noble singled and scored twice while Shawn Clark singled and came around to score a solo run.
Zack Rusaw highlighted the Massena effort with a two-out, two-run double to deep centerfield that scored Isaiah Dillabough and Connor Paquin with the Raider runs. Dillabough and Jake Ward each singled to account for the other Massena hits.
The Sandstoners have a busy four-day stretch scheduled with games at Gouverneur this afternoon, at Franklin Academy on Friday and then against Norwood-Norfolk on Saturday. The Raiders are also slated to be busy with interdivisional games at Norwood-Norfolk this afternoon and then against St. Lawrence Central on Saturday.
In NAC East Division baseball action on Wednesday, St. Lawrence Central split a double-header with Brushton-Moira while Chateaugay played host to Tupper Lake.
SLC 6-2, B-M 5-6: In the opening game, Tyler Savage completed a 3-4, three-RBI day at the plate by driving in Nate McLaughlin with the winning run in the bottom of the fifth inning. McLaughlin singled and scored twice in the contest while Hayden St. Hillaire went 2-2 with a double and an RBI to back Devin Euto, who struck out six pitching the victory.
Losing pitcher Zach Burnett doubled and scored two runs for the Panthers.
Jake St. Mary struck out five in a five-inning nightcap for B-M where Zach Burnett drove in three runs with a pair of doubles. Adam Martin doubled and scored for the winners.
McLaughlin and St. Hillaire both singled and scored for SLC and Zane Ramsdell went the distance on the mound.
The Larries are slated to return to action on Saturday with an interdivisional game at Massena starting at 10 a.m.
NAC West Division baseball encounters on Wednesday saw Heuvelton beat Lisbon 9-1, Harrisville down Edwards-Knox 4-1, Clifton-Fine drop Hermon-DeKalb 9-1 and Hammond host Morristown.

CUMBERLAND ŌĆō Prior to Cumberland HighŌĆÖs Division I showdown with Tolman on Friday afternoon, head coach Marty Crowley issued a message to his players.
ŌĆ£I just told them that TolmanŌĆÖs a great team, and ŌĆō like every game ŌĆō they need to be ready to play, and play hard,ŌĆØ he stated. ŌĆ£I also said that theyŌĆÖre brand new to the league (division), and we havenŌĆÖt seen them, but we needed to take them like any other (force). The good news is we heeded that warning.ŌĆØ
That was a given: Junior righty Juliet Nelson scattered six hits and two walks while whiffing nine to propel the Clippers to a workmanlike 5-0 victory over the Tigers at Tucker Field.
Nelson had plenty of support from her senior-oriented offense, as Sam Bertherman bashed a first-inning, two-run dinger and finished 2-for-3 with two RBI and two runs scored. Batterymate and fellow captain Bridget Connors went 3-for-4 with a run, Caylin Legare 2-for-2 with a pair of walks, an RBI and a run and Tayla Noke 1-for-3 with an RBI.
In fact, all but two in the starting lineup of nine recorded a hit; they included Nelson and classmate Bea Caron, though the former did tally a run in a two-run sixth frame.
ŌĆ£It was another solid effort for ŌĆśNellie,ŌĆÖŌĆØ Crowley grinned after his squad improved to 10-3 overall and 9-1 in league action. ŌĆ£She takes the game very seriously, and it shows on the field. She scattered some hits, yes, but I thought she got stronger as the game went on.
ŌĆ£She was up and out of the zone a bit early on, but she managed to get a little bit of everything working,ŌĆØ he added. ŌĆ£We hit the ball well, but Tolman plays a good defensive game. I still think we left too many on base. I mean, 11 is a lot.ŌĆØ
The Tigers fell to 4-7 overall and 3-7 in D-I, despite a more-than-decent outing from senior Olivia Larson. She yielded 11 hits in all and walked a trio with a pair of strikeouts, though she also forced Cumberland into 13 fly-ball outs.
In addition, it didnŌĆÖt help that three usual starters, including the sister tandem of senior Jordyn and sophomore Megan Klemanchuck and sophomore Leiandra Wilson, didnŌĆÖt play. The former pair had to attend the wake of their great-grandfather.
The only Pawtucketer with more than hit was senior Crystal Ritcey, who mustered two.
ŌĆ£(Hitting) has been our nemesis all year,ŌĆØ sighed Tolman skipper Craig Giarrusso. ŌĆ£Defensively, weŌĆÖre holding teams; I canŌĆÖt say enough about how well our defense is playing; theyŌĆÖre doing a great job. But, offensively, weŌĆÖre just not getting the job done. ItŌĆÖs little to non-existent.ŌĆØ
The Clippers needed just two batters to snatch a 2-0 cushion. Connors slapped an opposite-field hit to shallow right, and Bertherman walloped LarsonŌĆÖs fastball over senior centerfielder Ashley ClarkŌĆÖs head, and the rip ŌĆō with the wind blowing out ŌĆō went for a homer.
Larson fanned Nelson for the first out, but she walked Legare before Noke popped out to right. Syd Shabomardenly then beat out an infield hit, and Alexis Descoteaux drove ground single between short and third, but Tolman senior left fielder Brittany Bilodeau denied junior Bea Caron a hit with a superb sliding catch down the line to end the frame.
It seemed as if the Tigers would cut into the lead in the second when Nelson issued freshman Kaylee Moline-Vaz a walk, then surrendered Ritcey a lined single to center; she, however, fanned seniors Miranda Echevarria and Shelby Hofknecht to escape unscathed.
CrowleyŌĆÖs crew added another run in the third after Legare walked, took second on NokeŌĆÖs bunt single, moved to third when Shabomardenly reached on a dropped infield fly and scored on sophomore Rachel GillardiŌĆÖs strong bunt hit to short.
In the top of the fifth, Tolman threatened once more, Ashley Hessler drilling a one-out, ground hit up the middle and
Clark drove a high fly to left-center, one Gillardi couldnŌĆÖt haul in. With baserunners in scoring position, Nelson immediately struck out Larson, then forced sophomore Cristen Chiaverrini to pop out to short.
Cumberland manufactured a pair of insurance runs in the bottom of the sixth. Connors reached on an infield single and moved to second after Bertherman delivered a hit to center, but Nelson grounded into a 6-5 fielderŌĆÖs choice, with Connors out at third.
LegareŌĆÖs bloop single to short center plated Bertherman, while NokeŌĆÖs sacrifice fly to the ame field pushed across Nelson.
ŌĆ£At this point of the season, where youŌĆÖve been at it for a while, kids can get a little lethargic,ŌĆØ Crowley said. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs nearing the end of the school year and things are going on, but we told them we had to remain focused. I know I said thereŌĆÖs still a lot to play for, and ŌĆō against Tolman ŌĆō we couldnŌĆÖt take anything for granted.
ŌĆ£We still have two tough ones coming up next week, with Smithfield and Mount St. Charles,ŌĆØ he continued. ŌĆ£We also have to face Lincoln, Chariho and Cranston West, not to mention East Providence ŌĆ" But we started off nicely, with Sammy hitting the two-run blast in the first to get us rolling. And RachelŌĆÖs bunt in the third, that gave us a big run.
ŌĆ£Still, we had the bases loaded twice (in the first and third), but only got three out of them. Again, we have a lot to play for the next few weeks, and against great teams. WeŌĆÖve got to continue to focus, one game at a time.ŌĆØ

How to properly clean your Chacos
We are not chemists nor rocket scientists, but we wear our Chacos constantly, and we know what works and what doesn't. We also believe in helping you maintain your investment to keep your Chacos going for years. Our suggestions are low-impact, safe methods and will not delaminate the rubber, nor cause the webbing to crack or fade.
Chaco Sandals: the unofficial official recovery sandal of the Rock/Creek Race Team
If you've seen members of the Rock/Creek Race Team at trail races around the country, you've probably seen more than one pair of Chacos, and that's no accident. Chaco isn't an official sponsor of our Race Team, but so many of our runners wear Chacos before and after racing that we're going to go ahead and call them an unofficial one...
Rock/Creek & Chaco Sandals donate $3,000 to plant trees in Chattanooga
The $3,000 will fund the planting of 18 trees in two sections of median on Dallas Road in Chattanooga. The species selected for planting is an American Elm cultivar called "Princeton," bred for its resistance to Dutch Elm Disease. By selecting the American Elm, we're re-introducing a native tree to the urban landscape...

This is written to the weasels who went into my garage on June 16, 2008 and stole my Honda generator.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I and my family have. It has provide us with the power we needed when camping for lights or to view a movie on our television. I guess it makes you feel like a big man to steal from those of us who have held jobs and worked hard to buy these types of things to make ourselves a more comfortable life.
I pray for you, that as you look in the mirror, which you probably also stole, that the image that you see there resembles the true person you really are. That you see a thief, the liar, a leach on society. You cannot hope to be anything else in life than what you were on the day you took the generator from my garage. You are a plague on society and I hope they catch you.
You are not alone. You are the same kind of person that went into the Price Cemetery and removed a handmade floral decoration from the site of a loved one and tried to sell to the one who made it at a yard sale.
That's one who got caught.
In the past I know both of these examples would be rare. As Bill Cosby would say "come on people, we can do better than that."
Protect yourselves because there are thieves among us.

A Georgia-based restaurant firm says suspicious computer files have been found at some of its locations, prompting it to warn customers about the potential for fraud.
Zaxby's Franchising Inc. said in a statement that the suspicious files may have resulted in unauthorized access to credit and debit card information at more than 100 stores.
The company says the affected stores are in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi and Virginia. For a complete list click here.
Company officials say the issue involves malware files, which could have been used to export guest names and credit and debit card numbers. The company says it notified law enforcement of the potential criminal activity. A forensic investigation hasn't determined yet whether credit or debit card data left the processing systems of any stores.
"Zaxby's Franchising, Inc. takes the security of guest information very seriously and is working closely with the affected store locations to provide notice to potentially affected guests," the company said in an online letter today to customers. "Zaxby's Franchising, Inc. encourages all potentially affected guests to monitor their financial accounts for any unauthorized activity and to check their credit scores."

Video: Main Street Rochester becomes live set for Spiderman film
ROCHESTER, NY-- Filming of a chase scene for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 begins Tuesday, with East Main Street being closed intermittently between Plymouth and Clinton avenues. A portion of St. Paul Street also will be closed at times.
Main Street will be open to pedestrian traffic in between actual shooting of the scenes and will be directed by Rochester police officers or film production staff posted at intersections. Production staff also will direct people in buildings along Main Street when the filming is taking place and they cannot use the front doors. Generally, takes will be about 10 minutes long.
The following streets are only open to local traffic: Stone Street, School Alley, Fitzhugh Street, Irving Place, Exchange Boulevard and Aqueduct Street from Main to Broad streets, and Montgomery Alley, Fitzhugh Street, Pindle Alley and State Street from Church to Main streets. Corinthian and Basin streets also are only open to local traffic.
Monroe County also announced that the mobile Department of Motor Vehicles unit will be across from the Monroe County Parks Office, 171 Reservoir Drive from Tuesday through May 9 instead of the City Place location at 50 W. Main St.
Mayor Thomas Richards said, unfortunately, watching will not be as "fun for people as it might have been." However, people can walk up to the Main Street corners to get a peek at the action.
"It's not intended to be for our benefit."
City spokesman Gary Walker said the car chase also will include at least one gun fight.

Green Initiatives at the North American Headquarters
Headquarters Building:
- Oriented so that a majority of the open fronts - lobby, cafeteria, and fitness center - are facing north/south, minimizing solar heat gain.
- White reflective roofing material is used instead of standard black, heat absorbing material, significantly reducing heat gain and in turn reducing the need for additional cooling
- Designed with the most current energy saving equipment,
- Use of low-energy T-5 fluorescent bulbs throughout the building, with motion sensors that automatically shut off lights in areas not being used
- Packaging, packing/shipping materials, printed materials and all office cleaning supplies are chosen with a focus on eco-friendly
Interior Finishes:
- Every finish chosen for the building subscribes to the ecologically intelligent initiative known as "Cradle to Cradle". Cradle to Cradle ensures that products are manufactured from recycled materials and are themselves recyclable at the end of their use
- Carpet, the predominant floor finish, is manufactured at a green facility where all manufacturing waste is sent to a company-owned reclamation center, diverting hundreds of thousands of pounds of used carpet from landfills
- All furniture chosen for the building embraces environmental initiatives and much of it is LEED-certified (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
- Task chairs for all employees are manufactured from 40% recycled content. These chairs are 100% recyclable and are LEED certified for indoor air quality
- Work surfaces in offices and workstations are manufactured using wood cores that are comprised of 100% recycled wood fibers
- Used in conjunction with the local utility company to supplement the energy supply when the state electrical grid is on overload
- Generator decreases the citywide energy draw during summer's high demands by removing the entire building's energy needs when activated

The National Security Agency (NSA) says Americans should trust them to use their surveillance powers only for good. This from the group whose leader refused to say how many Americans they are spying on because it was "beyond the capacity of his office and dedicating sufficient additional resources would likely impede the NSA's mission."
In other words, the NSA is too busy illegally recording our private emails, texts, Facebook posts, and phone calls to figure out how many of us are already caught in their net. And, furthermore, there is nothing Congress can do about it.
Apparently, NSA thinks it's beyond the court's oversight, as well.
In a motion to dismiss a class action suit challenging the nearly unlimited scope of the domestic surveillance agency's monitoring of citizens' electronic communication, attorneys for the Obama administration argued that it would use the authority granted it under the Terrorist Surveillance Program only when "absolutely necessary" and that disclosing the information requested would require it to reveal protected state secrets.
The plaintiffs in the case — Jewel v. NSA — are a group of AT&T customers who accuse the NSA, former President George W. Bush, and Dick Cheney among others of illegally using "a shadow network of surveillance devices ... to acquire the content of a significant portion of phone calls, emails, instant messages, text messages, web communications, and other communications."
Originally filed in 2008 by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) on behalf of the plaintiffs, the suit "is aimed at ending the NSA's dragnet surveillance of millions of ordinary Americans and holding accountable the government officials who illegally authorized it."
