I watched Leonardo DiCaprio’s documentary the 11th hour today and was then at the website where I came across Blackle. It is a search engine created by Heap Media and powered by Google custom searches that has a black background. The black background saves energy because it requires less power to display a black screen than it does to display a white or light screen .
Pretty cool. I am going to set it as my home page.

Hey!
I have a book recommendation for you– Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver. Read it this spring and really liked it– it’s informative, challenging AND hugely entertaining– the combination of which is rare for a single book, I think. I think you and your husband (it still makes me grin to realize that you two are married now!) would enjoy it.
Hope all is well and you are — or soon will be– enjoying the summer. I think I may have caught sight on Facebook of a new job at a Geneva school in MANHATTAN– are you two moving?!
