Extractions: Respond to this Article May 2002 Why cities without gays and rock bands are losing the economic development race. By Richard Florida Purchase Richard Florida's related book As I walked across the campus of Pittsburgh's Carnegie Mellon University one delightful spring day, I came upon a table filled with young people chatting and enjoying the spectacular weather. Several had identical blue T-shirts with "Trilogy@CMU" written across them-Trilogy being an Austin, Texas-based software company with a reputation for recruiting our top students. I walked over to the table. "Are you guys here to recruit?" I asked. "No, absolutely not," they replied adamantly. "We're not recruiters. We're just hangin' out, playing a little Frisbee with our friends." How interesting, I thought. They've come to campus on a workday, all the way from Austin, just to hang out with some new friends. I noticed one member of the group sitting slouched over on the grass, dressed in a tank top. This young man had spiked multi-colored hair, full-body tattoos, and multiple piercings in his ears. An obvious slacker, I thought, probably in a band. "So what is your story?" I asked. "Hey man, I just signed on with these guys." In fact, as I would later learn, he was a gifted student who had inked the highest-paying deal of any graduating student in the history of his department, right at that table on the grass, with the recruiters who do not "recruit." What a change from my own college days, just a little more than 20 years ago, when students would put on their dressiest clothes and carefully hide any counterculture tendencies to prove that they could fit in with the company. Today, apparently, it's the company trying to fit in with the students. In fact, Trilogy had wined and dined him over margarita parties in Pittsburgh and flown him to Austin for private parties in hip nightspots and aboard company boats. When I called the people who had recruited him to ask why, they answered, "That's easy. We wanted him because he's a rock star."

Extractions: The Field of Geography Geography is the study of place in the same sense that history is the study of time. However, while historians cannot physically go back in time, geographers can visit and explore any place in the world! Geographers concentrate on asking two essential questions: "Where are things located?" and "Why are they located there?" From the information we obtain to these questions, geographers can study the local, national, and global patterns that shape our lives. For example, geographers want to know: Geography is an interdisciplinary field of study that combines the social and natural sciences. Hence, geographers are free to study issues and phenomena from virtually all other disciplines. Geography is divided into three distinct fields and numerous subfields: Human geography is the study of topics in the social sciences and human environment such as social, political, economic, or population issues.

For example, a lesson plan dealing with archaeology is automatically dealing with an anthropological subject. A lesson plan dealing with indigenous people is also automatically dealing with anthropology and any of them may, or may not, be dealing with history or ancient civilizations.

Home Energy trends in energy Cool News for Tree Lovers Ryan Jensen is preparing to collect leaf area index and other biophysical measurements in north central Florida. Gainesville residents are raking in a cool average household energy savings of $126 per year, thanks to their trees, concludes a recent University of Florida (UF) study. UF researchers R.R. Jensen and Michael Binford compared average energy consumption per household in the Florida cities of Gainesville and Ocala and found that Gainesville's denser tree canopy offers its residents lower per-household electricity bills. Jensen chose to compare electricity use in these two cities, which are just 30 miles apart, because of their similarities. The likenesses include similar types of trees, ecosystems, climate, geology, topography, natural vegetation, population, and number of degree-days. "They both have about the same number of lakes nearby, and everything else is just about the same," says Michael Binford, associate professor of geography at the University of Florida, Gainesville. "The only thing that wasn't the same was the tree canopy coverage, which is denser in Gainesville." Jensen developed an artificial neural network (ANN) to more accurately measure a city's leaf area index (LAI), using remotely sensed imagery collected by satellite. Jensen applied the ANN to area maps of the cities and then computed the average LAI of each city. Gainesville's average LAI was 4.6 m
