Laboratory workstations come in a selection of configurations. Features like chemical-resistant surfaces, strict adherence to inflammability codes and low-maintenance materials make them highly safe. From eye-wash stations to instructors' desks, your department will get an "A" for professionalism with lab stations from Hertz Furniture.
Depending on the arrangement of your space and the sizes of classes, you can choose from a selection of two- and four-student workstations. Both of these setups are conducive to working with lab partners. The four-student arrangement provides the additional possibility of working in a larger group of four when supplies are limited or the experiment requires larger groups to work together. Two-student models are forward facing, which is conducive to frontal instruction and demonstrations as well as independent experimentation. The four-student option comes in a number of arrangements including forward-facing and octagonal.
The configuration of laboratory workstations varies as well. Freestanding islands can fit anywhere in the classroom. They are a great option if you have a large open space because they make it easy for students to observe their own experiments from all angles. Perimeter workstations utilize wall space so the middle of the room is more open. To fit the maximum amount of workstations in your science lab, you may choose a combination of freestanding and perimeter units.
A critical feature of any counter or table in a science lab is the work surface material. Because experiments involving chemicals and heat are constantly being conducted, it is essential that the surface and sink material will not become easily damaged by extreme conditions. Heat- and chemical-resistant tops come in varying degrees of strength, so it is important to pay close attention to which materials are available when making a purchase for your science lab.
Built-in storage is a great extra feature to have in your lab workstations. Each unit can be kept fully-stocked to ensure that every pair of lab partners can find what they need for experiments. Storage comes in a number of different styles including book boxes, drawers and cabinets. Cabinets are good for larger items such as microscopes, while drawers are helpful for organizing smaller accessories such as pipettes and tweezers.
There are many extra pieces of lab furniture that can greatly enhance the experience of both teachers and students. Mobile demonstration centers can be moved around the room to ensure that all students have a good view, no matter where they are sitting or standing. They enable instructors to model correct experimentation methods while providing instructions or explanations using the attached whiteboard.
Mobile fume hoods offer an additional option for experiment demonstration. They enable students to observe physical changes while remaining protected from fumes and chemicals. They can be transported around the room to ensure that everyone gets a good view, or moved between different science labs as needed.
There are a number of additional pieces that can enhance lab safety and organization. Shower and eyewash stations are readily available for use in the unlikely event that they are needed. It is essential to furnish your lab with these pieces in order to ensure that students are properly protected at all times. We also have lab cleanup sinks which provide an extra space for students to wash up and clean experiment tools at the end of class.
Hertz Furniture's selection of functional and safe laboratory furniture includes everything you need to furnish any student science lab. Our lab equipment comes from companies that specialize in school laboratory furniture including Diversified Woodcrafts and Stevens Industries. Planning out the arrangement for a science lab can be quite tricky and complicated. The Hertz Design Center is here to help you determine the optimal configuration for your space.

With everything from office desks to school chairs conveniently organized on this one Made in USA page, you can definitely afford to buy American.
There are lots of reasons to look for school furniture that is made in the USA. If we want to teach our students to be patriotic, we need to demonstrate our own patriotism in the classroom. By furnishing a learning space with American made school desks, student chairs and bookcases, we send a message to children that we are proud of our country and our home-grown goods. They will understand that there are many reasons to be proud to be an American.
When you go shopping for furniture made in the USA, make sure to really check the label before purchasing anything. While some companies might claim that they are only using American labor, it is possible that certain steps in the assembly process are happening overseas, or that international parts are being used with the assembly process in America. It is important to demonstrate to manufacturers, the American public and the world that it does make a difference to consumers when they have furniture made in America.
There are tons of benefits to purchasing made in USA furniture. First of all, America has very strict standards regarding pollution in product production. When you buy American, you help keep a cleaner environment for the future of our children. When you purchase products without looking for the made in USA label, you don't know what they might contain or what kinds of conditions they were made under. Products from overseas might have been made under substandard working conditions, in factories which are causing tons of air pollution or using child labor.
American labor standards and worker conditions ensure that your office furniture is only produced under acceptable conditions. Made in the USA products have been manufactured through processes which take into account the safety of the workers, the quality of the products and the impact on the environment. When you buy American, you celebrate our country's independence and promote a self-sufficient economy.
When you buy domestically-produced furniture, you can feel good about your purchase. It's great to know that it was made under particular conditions, in compliance with strict standards. You also know who made it. The production of American made furniture creates jobs for our country's citizens. It is always important to support the American labor force, and buying furniture made in the USA is a mutually-beneficial way to do so.
At Hertz Furniture, we know what is important to the American consumer. With our wide array of American made furniture, you can be patriotic and still rely on the quality, style and reliability you have come to expect from Hertz Furniture. So next time you are looking for furniture made in the USA, you can simply come to this page to buy American. Need help choosing which great models will fit best in your space?

Hunting is a time-honored tradition in Maine and for good reason – the state has an abundance of game, vast stretches of rural country, extensive wildlands, and a rich sporting heritage that dates back centuries. Whether you're interested in upland birds or big game like moose and deer and bear, the Pine Tree State is the place for you.
Few states in the lower 48 can rival the variety and quality of hunting opportunities that Maine has to offer. From wildlife unique to northern tier states like moose and black bear, to bobcats and white-tailed deer that are common to the eastern forests, Maine's wildlife offers opportunities for every outdoor enthusiast. With a growing population of over 25,000 black bears, Maine has the highest black bear density and population in the East. Deer and moose populations are likewise big and healthy – with more than 200,000 whitetails and 29,000 moose.
Our numerous waterfowl in the state's interior lakes and marshes are complemented with world-class sea duck hunting opportunity along Maine's magnificent coastline. In addition, the restoration of wild turkey to Maine has been a phenomenal success as turkeys continue to multiply and venture ever further north and east.
So Maine's got game. And it also has a grand tradition of hunting hospitality. Sporting camps are spread throughout the North Woods, and they've been hosting hunters for generations. A hunting trip to a traditional Maine Sporting Camp can be like taking a trip back in time. Many employ Registered Maine Guides – world renowned outdoor experts – and they know where to find the wildlife. There's a reason that famous sports like Teddy Roosevelt, Ted Williams and Ted Nugent have taken advantage of the traditional relaxing hospitality and hunting experience that Maine has to offer.
Trophy animals continue to be taken all over the state by both bow and rifle. How about a 900-pound cow moose? A 27-pound turkey? Or a 680-pound bear? These are just a few of the records that have been broken in the past decade.
Why wait for your next outdoor adventure, visit the state blessed with first-class biologists, guides and landowners who create these endless opportunities. Visit the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, the Maine Sporting Camp Association, and the Maine Professional Guides Association for more information.

Taylor Swift calls John Mayer 'presumptuous'
Updated On: Oct 02 2012 05:31:21 PM CDT
Now would be the time to break out into a rendition of Carly Simon's "You're So Vain."
During a recent interview with Glamour, Taylor Swift told the magazine that John Mayer was "presumptuous" to think her tune "Dear John" was written about him.
"I never disclose who my songs are about," she said.
In June, Mayer told Rolling Stone he was "humiliated" by the song, adding, "I'm pretty good at taking accountability now, and I never did anything to deserve that. It was a really lousy thing for [Swift] to do."
Though track likely isn't on Mayer's playlist, the country-pop star said "that song really hit home with a lot of girls who had been through toxic relationships and had found their way to the other side of it. I've never looked out while singing a song during a concert to see so many girls crying.
When asked about her current relationship with Conor Kennedy, Swift simply said, "I don't talk about my personal life in great detail. I write about it in my songs, and I feel like you can share enough about your life in your music to let people know what you're going through."
Guess we'll just have to wait for a tune.

General Discussion Back to top
Leukocyte adhesions deficiency (LAD) syndromes are a group of rare disorders affecting the immune system. LAD syndromes are characterized by defects affecting how white blood cells (leukocytes) respond and travel to the site of a wound or infection. Three distinct types of leukocyte adhesion syndrome have been identified. The specific symptoms and the severity of LAD syndromes vary from one person to another. All affected individuals develop an increased susceptibility to developing recurrent bacterial and fungal infections. Additional symptoms may occur depending upon the specific subtype present. LAD syndromes are caused by mutations of specific genes that contain instructions for creating certain proteins that are necessary for white blood cells to travel from the bloodstream to the site of an infection or inflammation. Individuals with severe forms of LAD may have near complete absence of these proteins. Individuals who have milder forms of LAD syndromes have deficient levels of these proteins, but retain some residual protein activity.

Key Facts |
Bridge Name | Facility Carried / Feature Intersected | Location | Structure Type | Construction Date and Builder/Engineer | |
Flemingville Bridge
| West Creek Road Over East Branch Owego Creek | Flemingville (Rural): Tioga County, New York | Metal 8 Panel Rivet-Connected Polygonal Warren Through Truss, Fixed | 1936 By Builder/Contractor: Unknown |
Technical Facts |
Main Span Length | Structure Length | Roadway Width | Main Spans | NBI Number |
164.7 Feet (50.2 Meters) | 174 Feet (53 Meters) | 21.7 Feet (6.6 Meters) | 1 | 3335150 |
The state of New York, like neighboring Pennsylvania, continued to rely on the metal truss bridge into the first third of the 20th Century, developing a standard plan for metal truss bridges and building them with moderate frequency. Unlike Pennsylvania, which went with the Pratt and Parker truss configurations, New York engineers instead went with the Warren and Warren Polygonal truss configurations. A number of these structures survive today in New York. They all feature riveted connections and "massive" members and have what would have been at the time a relatively wide deck width. Today in the 21st century, the continuity from the standard plan design is psychologically enhanced by the fact that nearly all of these bridges in New York are painted in the same green color. Despite the fact that they are late examples of truss bridge construction, and a relatively fair number remain, they still represent a structure type no longer built today, and are also highly attractive structures that make crossing a bridge something to notice and enjoy. They are also, if properly maintained, strong bridges that are more than capable of serving modern traffic needs safely and efficiently. For all these reasons, the maintenance and preservation of these structures makes sense for fiscal reasons, but also for the greater purpose of preserving these attractive structures, which offer a window into past forms of fabrication, construction, and engineering.
This example has grey paint instead of the usual green. Like many of the New York standard truss bridges, this one remains in excellent structural condition. They appear to have been built and maintained well. If New York continues to maintain these bridges into the 21st Century, their significance will skyrocket as states like Pennsylvania continue to demolish their similar bridges, thus raising the rarity of this general bridge type.

Unrestricted media use is having serious consequences for children and parents need to clamp down, recommends a new American Academy of Pediatrics policy.
The policy suggests parents should limit their children to two hours of media time a day. That includes TVs, computers and smartphones.
Dr. Victor Strasburger, lead author of the policy, said "many parents are clueless" about the impact media time is having on children, reports the Associated Press.
A 2010 report found that U.S. children between the ages of 8 and 18 spend an average of more than seven hours daily using entertainment media – and some youths are texting and on their smartphones after their parents go to bed.
What do you think? Do you think two hours of media time is a good limit? Do you think it goes too far? Or do you think it doesn't go far enough? Let us know in the comment section below

Reload the page and try again.
B+ A+F Online Courses: The online courses offered at Bryant and Stratton College really work well for students that can not find the time to attend a traditional classroom
A- A+F Student Body: Since Bryant & Stratton College is a career oriented college the faculty focus is on career goals
B+ A+F Academic Experience: I am majoring in Nursing and I am very please with the program
A- A+F Academic Experience: The school offers a tremendous amount of academic support and the faculty wants nothing more but for the students to succeed.
A A+F Tuition & Financial Aid: The classes are costly but we are trying to manage and complete and accomplish our goals
A+ A+F Online Courses: i didn't take online classes, people and instructors wanted me to do classes on campus since this is my last semester
A A+F Academic Flexibility: The Academic flexibilityat my school is great because they really take the time out to help. I began my work study program August 5th!!! :)
C A+F Tuition & Financial Aid: It is very expensive to attend this college, especially for a student like me that does not receive any financial aid.
A A+F Campus Resources: Being a career school, the resources are very helpful. There is an entire career services area that is to help students find a job after graduation and also help with volunteer opportunities.
A A+F Student Body: The students at Bryant & Stratton- Parma are very outgoing and supportive of each other.
Campus Resources: the small class size and the availability of all personel
Academic Flexibility: wonderful experience with personal on helping to enroll and get financial aid
Academic Experience: I just enrolled and the medical assisting course workload seems to be an easy fit since I work . The personal there were all very helpful and curtious
Tuition & Financial Aid: I was excited to get the pell grant because I am a single parent with limited funds and am hoping to receive a scholarship to help assist with the cost of the tuition
Academic Experience: I have just enrolled and will start at end of June. I have been out of school for 30years and was very nervous about this whole process and so far everything went so smooth and easy. I am looking forward to attending.
Tuition & Financial Aid: My campus (Eastlake) to my knowledge does not have one of these forums so the next closest one was Parma. The only downfall to financial aid is a LakeTran bus pass is $100...rediculous! What if single parents do not have it and still rely on Laketran to get them there? Then what do the single parents do? The school needs to reduce the cost of a bus pass. Other than that it is fine.

The world will never fully know the unspeakable tortures they endured. But they survived.
Elizabeth Smart was kidnapped from her bedroom at 14, declared a child bride by her captor and sexually assaulted for nine months. Jaycee Dugard, 11, was snatched from a roadside and held for 18 years, eventually bearing two babies fathered by her rapist kidnapper. Taken at 11, Shawn Hornbeck was sexually abused by his abductor for four years before police freed him.
This week in Cleveland, three new names were added to that list of young abduction survivors. After a decade in captivity, Amanda Berry, Georgina "Gina" DeJesus and Michelle Knight now face a challenging journey toward recovery.
What can they learn from the paths followed by Smart, Dugard, Hornbeck and others that led them from darkness to brighter lives?
The resiliency of these survivors is nothing short of remarkable. Smart, now 25, is married. She formed a foundation to battle child abuse and travels the country as a public speaker. Nearly four years after regaining her freedom, Dugard, 33, heads her own group aimed at helping victims like herself. She wrote a book about her ordeal and has learned to ride horseback. Hornbeck, 21, works full-time and wants to finish his education.
Experts credit much of their recovery to access to important health care resources and strong family support.
There's another factor: faith. These survivors likely were more confident that they would re-emerge into a safe world.
"Some of these people have had a considerable amount of faith, and they've entered into a community that has been very accepting and welcoming," said Dr. Wynn Schwartz, a Harvard Medical School psychologist.
Also: time. Smart, Dugard and Hornbeck initially walled themselves off from pesky news reporters, says Dr. Bonny Forrest, a San Diego-based psychologist and attorney. Being "very selective about their interviews allowed them to avoid having to immediately relive and retell" their traumatic experiences. It "allowed them to decompress or let go of their stress in a time period that was appropriate for them."
But for every survivor of childhood abduction, there are countless cases with endings that will never be known.
According to the FBI, more than half of all missing persons cases in the United States involve children.
Specifically, of all 87,217 active missing persons cases in 2012, the FBI says 47,366 missing people were 20 or younger. That's 54.3%. Although many are runaways and don't wish to be found, an unknown number might have been abducted.
For young abductees, experts say, survival is a rare thing.
Here are some of their inspiring stories:
Smart: 'I was marked'
It was late at night inside the bedroom of 14-year-old Elizabeth Smart. A drifter named Brian David Mitchell climbed through a window of her Salt Lake City, Utah, home and put a knife to her throat. He forced her to walk to a nearby campsite, where Mitchell and his wife, Wanda Barzee, "sealed" Smart to him in a brief ceremony and raped her. The couple forced Smart to wander with them from town to town, often keeping her tethered to trees.
Nine months after her abduction, police stopped Mitchell, Barzee and Smart as they left a Walmart in Sandy, Utah, just five miles from her family's home. Smart's life as a captive was finally over.
"I felt that because of what he had done to me, I was marked," Smart later testified at Mitchell's trial. "I wasn't the same. My personal value had dropped. I was nothing. Another person could never love me."
Smart's fears proved to be unfounded as she leaned on her faith and her family. And this past week, she offered to share what she learned during her recovery with the Cleveland victims.
"Nothing that has happened to them will ever diminish their value," Smart told CNN's Wolf Blitzer on Tuesday. "It should never hold them back from doing what they want to do."
Smart reminded them to "take as much time as they need" to recover before going public with the details of their ordeals. "And if they decide never to share their stories, that would be OK, too."
Her remarkable recovery has included co-authoring a Justice Department pamphlet about how to survive abduction. Smart works as a contributor for a national TV news network and she runs a foundation aimed at protecting children from predators.
Last year, Smart married Scotsman Matthew Gilmour, whom she met while they performed missionary work in France for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Dugard focuses on hope
In 1991, Jaycee Dugard was a carefree tween walking toward a school bus stop in South Lake Tahoe, California. But when Phillip and Nancy Garrido drove by looking for a victim, 11-year-old Jaycee's life changed forever.

(Story and photos by The Butehorn Bros. Post 4987 Veterans of Foreign Wars of Bethpage had their annual Christmas party for all the "old soldiers" and their wives. The Sterling Caterers where it was held on Sunday the 11th of Dec. looked like a flower shop as Emil's of Bethpage donated that huge crop of beautiful plants. Barry Grohosky the General Manager of the Sterling did everything in his power to make the day absolutely perfect for the veterans. Next we had John Catalanotto's music and the evening was complete. John is one of the "old soldiers" a member of the Post. His music is remembered when he played for 100th anniversary of the VFW in the library in 1999 in front of our local peopie and all the dignitaries and visitors of other VFW post's on Long Island. His music had the Sterling jumping. Unfortunately the Post Past Cmdr Bud Rosch) Commander Francis Meehan was ill and could not attend and our Quartermaster who has arranged the whole party Vito DeFanis was in the hospital having a knee medical procedure and he was not there. The Quartermaster gave instructions to Past Cmdr. Bud Steubing and he did an excellent job. Yes! reports from all the members and their wives state they had a most wonderful party with excellent food. Bob Imhof, a member that we have not seen for some time because of medical problems was there with his lovely wife and we were all pleased to see him with us. Bob was always a real working member and did whatever he could to help. We even had extra entertainment the bartender sang the song "After the Loving" an old favorite of "Engelberi Humperdink" the famous singer. You will see photos here of " e occasion. \ .1 ' II Bethpage Hosts Another Successful Ho Ho Ho Holiday Run The Greater Long Island Running Club, headed by President Mike Polansky, recently sponsored their 18th annual Ho Ho Ho Holiday Run through the streets of Bethpage. The 5 kilometer run started at Bethpage High School, following a 1/4 mile fun run for kids age 10 and under and a "costume parade." A major portion of the proceeds from this event are being donated to the "Bretton Bowl," "The Maurer Foundation for Breast Health Education" and "The Tender Loving Care Foundation." Pictured, from left, are Senator Kemp Hannon, Oyster Bay Town Councilwoman Elect Elizabeth Faughnan, Oyster Bay Town Coucilwoman Rose Walker, and Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Thomas Venditto. (Second photo includes costume parade participants.) on Page 9) The 18th annual Carter, DeLuca, Farrell & Schmidt Ho Ho Ho Holiday Hun, held on the roads of Bethpage on December 17, was a tremendous success. There were nearly a thousand finishers in the 5K Hun and nearly a hundred youngsters in the 1/4 Mile Fun Run that preceded the main event The net result is that several local charities, including the "Bretton Bowl" fund for needy Bethpage families, the Maurer Foundation for Breast Health Education, and the Tender Loving Care Foundation tor premature infants, will each receive substantial contributions. In addition, the geneious toy donations by the participants will allow many disadvantaged children to have a more festive Holiday through the event's partnership with Mercy First. Special congratulations to top overall finisher Sean Hopkins of Brookhaven, and to Donna McMahon of Farmingdale, who scored as the first woman overall.

Thread: AE 2008 MD Finals Review 2
AE 2008 MD Finals Review 2
now, i have finally been able to watch the MD finals thanks to the great efforts of modious. and i must say, i have to disagree with james (his comments below in red), which is rather rare for me. i don't think JJS was the weakest player at all in this match.
Game 1
now, i felt all 4 players were equally good in this game, maybe LJJ was slightly better than the rest but it could have gone either way, being so close at 22-20. nothing much to say here, some excellent rallies.
Game 2
this is the game where i felt LJJ was outstanding. that point at 12-15 was the best i've seen in a long time, put a smile on my face. here's where i felt HJM started to fade a little. i thought, overall, HJM was the weakest player and he gradually deteriorated as the match wore on. in the first game, he was sharp at the net and excellent at the fast exchanges, he showed signs of this in the second game but was not as consistent as in the first.
Game 3
here is where i felt HJM played the worst, and it affected LJJ's game as well. all 4 players started a little nervy, but LJJ/HJM kept ahead and were leading at the interval. then HJM made a lot of unforced errors after that, at one point you could see him visibly apologising as LJJ looked very dissapointed. i don't know if this is a fitness issue, but he certainly went off the boil.
all in all, a very entertaining game. LJJ was the best player by far, HJM started well but lost it in the end, LYD and JJS were the steadier pair in the final 2 games and deserved the victory in the end.
MD: Lee/Jung vs Lee/Hwang
A good match which was well fought by both pairs, similar as the WD the match was very evenly balanced up until 14 points in the thirds when a few lose errors from LJJ gifted LYD/JJS a cushion which they did not relinquish.
For most of the match though Lee/Hwang were the better pair, the two KOR Pairs are quite even in defence, but Lee/Hwang are definitely superior in attack at both the front and the back they have more power. Ther was also an intresting battle at the net between LeeJJ and Lee YD, and I think LJJ shaded it slightly. Out of the four players JJS is the weakest, and this puts pressure on LYD to do sometihng special, which he often can do, but it should not be relied upon.
sorry james, this is not an attack on you, it's just a difference of opinions ...
u can juz post at the thread james had created..
no need to create a new 1
No Problems Dreamzz....everyone is entitled to their opinion. I agree with you that LJJ was outstanding in this game. He controlled the net (which the day before I had proclaimed LYD to be the master at against CTF/LWW) and his service returns were always putting them in control from the start.
I forget the points now since I haven't watched it on video but I felt at the Time that HJM had the ability to put the shuttle on the floor whereas JJS sometimes struggled and only "got by" in the defence department, whereas the others could actually do something with the shuttle.
But in the end LJJ/HJM lost, so the turnaround must be attributed to something. I put it down to some fantastic defence strokes from LYD which took the wind out of LJJ/HJM's attack at a crucial stage (about 14-14), this left them with too much to do.
yeah, you've gotta download the video, it's a keeper! nothing like watching it live, of course, the atmosphere is totally different. but you tend to be able to see more of the action when watching the video, since you can always do your own 'replays' and analyse the points a bit more.
regardless of who was better, this was an exciting game. you could tell from the reaction of the crowd, they were slightly bored at the beginning, probably thinking it was going to be less competitive as it was KOR vs KOR, but they really got into it at the end.

The Vatican vehemently denied the allegations Saturday.
Vatican Secretary of State Tarcisio Bertone said it was "deplorable" that as the time for the Roman Catholic cardinals to elect a new pope approaches, a rash of "often unverified, unverifiable or completely false news stories" has appeared.
Benedict also moved up the resignation Monday of a Scottish archbishop linked over the weekend by a British newspaper to inappropriate relationships with priests.
Cardinal Keith O'Brien, the archbishop of Scotland, told the pope in November that he would resign effective on his 75th birthday, on March 17.
But Benedict decided to make the resignation effective immediately in light of the pope's imminent resignation, the Scottish Catholic Media Office said.
The announcement came a day after a report by the British Sunday newspaper The Observer that three priests and one former priest leveled allegations against O'Brien that date back 30 years.
Speaking in London on Tuesday, one of Britain's most senior Roman Catholics, the former Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor, described the circumstances of O'Brien's resignation as "very sad."
Murphy-O'Connor said that it was O'Brien's decision to step down and that he had not been forced or asked to do so. He described O'Brien as a "very honest man."
An apostolic administrator, most likely a senior bishop, will examine the allegations against O'Brien, Murphy-O'Connor said.
He also said he was in no doubt that there needs to be reform within the Roman Catholic Church and that the issues being raised now need to be addressed "at the highest level."

"I think our guests expect us to push the envelope and try things that are different than what the mass-appeal hotels are doing," DeFrino said.
DeFrino's convinced that some guests don't actually mean to ask for new towels but are much like his teenage daughter, who tosses her towels on the floor at home for no good reason. "Once it's on the floor, you're going to get a clean towel," he said. (Hotel guests, not his daughter.)
The pressure on a mid-priced chain
It's trickier for other hotel chains, where sustainability isn't necessarily part of the appeal to the customer.
The mid-priced chains are competing for a more price-sensitive business and leisure traveler. Hampton Inn, which offers a hot breakfast at its nearly 1,900 company-owned and franchise locations across the country, has two environmentally friendly options for disposable plates, bowls and cutlery: 100% biodegradable Enviroware or Taterware, a resin material made from potato starch.
The chain's takeout coffee cup sleeves are made from 100% recycled fiber, and the towel reuse program simply asks customers using a door hanger to "reuse or replace" towels. No big deal either way, the sign suggests.
"We're delivering these messages in a light-hearted way. ... It's not preachy or paternalistic," said Jennifer Silberman, vice president of corporate responsibility for Hilton Worldwide, which owns Hampton.
More happens behind the scenes at Hampton, which benefits from LightStay, Hilton's company-wide sustainability system that tracks the sustainability of 200 operational practices at nearly 3,900 properties around the world. Hilton has saved more than $147 million since 2008 through efficiency projects, including reporting through LightStay, Silberman said.
Satisfying the luxury guest
You'd think environmental sustainability programs would hit a roadblock with luxury guests, who want the best of everything. Not so, said Sue Stephenson, vice president of Ritz-Carlton's Community Footprints, the chain's social and environmental responsibility program.
"It in no way diminishes the luxury experience," Stephenson said. "We still have the best towels, linens and amenities."
Many Ritz-Carlton guests now use the same sheets two nights in a row (introduced in 2011) and hang up their towels to use another day (introduced in 2009).
"We've not had a single negative guest comment but have certainly had positive guest comments," Stephenson said. "Guests want to see we're doing the right thing."
It helps that the onus is really on the business to be responsible in its construction, hotel operations, food service and landscaping, she said. "The majority of what can be done for the environment is what we can do as a business," Stephenson said.
No matter the price point, no hotelier can afford to lose a guest because he or she doesn't like the way a hotel communicates its message.
Even Kimpton's DeFrino said the boutique chain won't roll out an environmental initiative if tests show that customers don't like it. But in Kimpton's case, DeFrino found that guests approve of their efforts.
"Our guest satisfaction has improved since our green initiatives were introduced, and it's given us confidence that efforts have not deteriorated the guest experience," he said.
The tide may be turning
It's possible that younger people used to recycling and saving water will bring those attitudes into their hotel stays as they age. Ritz-Carlton's Stephenson sees children leading their parents into caring about the environment on their hotel stays.
Betting that more and more consumers want to choose environmentally friendly hotels right now, travel website TripAdvisor is launching its GreenLeaders program this year to let travelers know which hotels have sustainable practices.
About 71% of travelers reported that they planned to choose hotels based on sustainability over the next year, compared with 65% in the previous survey, according to an April 2012 Trip Advisor survey.
Yet while 81% of hotels have some green programs, almost a quarter don't communicate that fact to their guests, said TripAdvisor spokeswoman Alison Croyle.
The website is accepting applications from hotels to qualify for a "GreenLeader" or "GreenPartner" label on the TripAdvisor site based on their sustainable practices. The program will rely on traveler feedback, and any discrepancies could trigger an independent audit of the hotel.
That's information that Genevieve Hein, 33, who always hangs up her towels at hotels to reuse them the next day, would enjoy having.
"Trying to limit my impact on the environment makes me feel good," said Hein, assistant director of residence life at Sarah Lawrence College in New York.

ElizabethStuckey 3-2 |
The New Yorker review stated: "Elizabeth Stuckey-French's new novel, Revenge of the Radioactive Lady, is the sort of book that one devours quickly and then thinks, 'I'll have another one just like that, please.' The trouble is, of course, that it's difficult to find another book quite like this one."
Fortunately for Boca Grande readers, Elizabeth Stuckey-French is a writer friend of Dr. Daly Walker who recommended her for the 2012 visiting writer's series at the Johann Fust Community Library. She is coming to Boca Grande for a literary presentation in the garden at the library on Tuesday, March 6, at 4 p.m.
Elizabeth Stucky-French is a graduate of the Iowa Writer's Workshop and is currently a teacher of Fiction Writing at Florida State University. Along with her husband, Ned Stuckey-French and Jane Burroway, she is co-author of "Writing Fiction: A Guide To The Narrative Craft." This book is considered an authoritative text for fiction writers. Her other publications include a novel, "Mermaids On The Moon," and a collection of short stories, "The First Paper Girl In Red Oak, Iowa." Her short stories have appeared in Narrative Magazine, The Atlantic Monthly, The Gettysburg Review, The Southern Review and O'Henry Prize Stories, 2005. She was awarded the James Michener Fellowship and has won grants from the Howard Foundation, the Indiana Arts Foundation and the Florida Arts Foundation.
Revenge of the Radioactive Lady was given a starred review by Publisher's Weekly.
"Glowing with dark humor, Elizabeth Stuckey-French's fabulously quirky second novel spotlights a would-be killer: Marylou Ahearn, a 77-year-old retired teacher in Memphis. She's obsessed with killing Dr. Wilson Spriggs, who gave Marylou a radioactive cocktail in 1953 during a secret government study."
The New York Times Sunday Book Review added: "The Revenge of the Radioactive Lady is populated exclusively by what used to be called oddballs, and therein lies its strength. A lesser writer would have made Marylou Ahearn more sprightly, more lovable, would have defanged her hatred of Wilson Spriggs. We don't expect, in comic little-old-lady novels, to encounter childhood cancer, randy preachers and a boy building a homemade reactor in a tool shed. But Stucky-French knows that if you dig deep enough, we're all oddballs, and the world is a perilous and unpredictable place."
For an exceptional literary event, please come to meet Elizabeth Stuckey-French and enjoy her presentation at the Johann Fust Community Library on Tuesday, March 6 at 4 p.m. There will be a book signing and wine reception afterwards. The public is invited, the fee is $10. Members of the library are admitted free. For further information, call the library at 964-2488.
Alice Gorman is a vice president of the Johann Fust Community Library Board.

I really like the feeling of layered textures from this photo. The ground, the steam, the homeless man, the broom, the plastic bags, they all come together to form this complex photo.

A Chinese homeless man sleeps near steam coming from a manhole as he tries to stay warm during a cold snap in Beijing, Tuesday , Nov. 27, 2007.
