Sometimes those who dream of traveling among
the stars like to have a clear night away from the city to see the ones
hidden by city lights. Well now it is possible with
Star Ship Cruises which
picks remote areas to optimize the view of the night sky. Another
announcement is that October is National Energy Action Month and
President Obama has called upon us to work together to achieve greater
energy security, a more robust economy, and a healthier environment.
With his March announcement of "Executive Order 13693: Planning for
Federal Sustainability in the Next Decade," the Department of Commerce
recently launched a partnership with the Department of Energy's Federal
Energy Management Program (FEMP) to identify additional opportunities to
save energy and water. You may visit FEMP's Energy Action Month page at
http://energy.gov/eere/femp/energy-action-month to
find resources you can use to raise awareness of energy and
water-saving ideas that will help lead our nation to a secure, clean,
and prosperous energy future. For more information please contact
