And What Really Makes the Bullitt Center Green.
And keep in mind that some of the systems that the building is 'demonstrating' actually enable more buildings to be built in the middle of nowhere.
IF you can build a building and produce enough electricity, use only rain water and treat and compost waste on-site, you don't need the infrastructure that builds economies and makes cities work for large and denser populations - water, energy and wastewater systems.

Emphasis on the Word "Talented".
Nope - not for me. Yes, great camera work, incredible lighting and setting. But the beauty of dance - and the Wow factor at what a dancer can do - is in real time.
Manipulating the dance with slow motion, fast motion, cut aways, exaggerated leaps - is more about the camera work than the dancer.

Authorities are on the lookout for a chicken that was seen crossing the street . . . .

The Saturday Morning News.
All sorts of neat surprises in the Senate budget including a cut of more than half a billion dollars to fight wildfires. Which is just fine because we all know states will be able to take up the slack . . . Or perhaps the argument is that the federal funding had been enabling wildfires . . .

Two Seattle Authors Nominated for Not-Orange Prize.
I've read several of the books on the list (Gone Girl isn't prize worthy in my book) but one that should be on the list is "Carry the One" by Carol Anshaw.
An excellent story with excellent writing and a real bead on a big wedge of American culture.
