Even at Princeton University there are slackers, and Gary Klondike is one of the best. Having been on academic probation multiple times, Gary must finish a take home final from one of his bullsh*t Sociology classes, or he faces expulsion. Janet, Gary's girlfriend, sees this moment as the perfect escape clause out of her relationship. She's wanted to dump Gary for a long time, but can't because Gary belongs to Princeton's exclusive Ivy Club, which Janet hopes to join as she is a social climber. It's his goal to finish the final over the weekend, it's her goal to stop him. A short film by Robert Gati

Jeffrey converses with author Jennifer Morgan. Seismic cultural change has often been initiated by individuals of vision and tenacity who were placed at the right place at the right time. Jennifer has spent a great deal of time perfecting some magnificent children s books on the origins of the universe that are beautifully illustrated, brilliantly written and critically acclaimed by leaders as extremely relevant and enlightening alike. Jennifer s work as a storyteller, author, educator and environmental advocate flows out of her love of the natural world and cosmology. As former director of the Northeast Organic Farming Association of New Jersey, she started local and national programs for farmers and consumers. In 1996, she took the Earth Literacy program in cosmology and evolution at Genesis Farm, Blairstown, NJ. It so inspired her that she went on to take classes in cosmology and evolution at Princeton University. In sharing what she learned with her six year old son, she discovered that children are intensely interested in the story of the universe. He wanted to know more and more, even the texture of the edge of the Universe. Jennifer consulted with numerous physicists, biologists and anthropologists regarding science concepts and, over time, bedtime conversations with her son turned into books. Science is handing us an origin story, she says, and we ve only barely begun to understand its mythic dimensions. She believes that cosmology stories profoundly shape our relationships, work, play, culture, and institutions. Her first book won Learning Magazine s Teachers Choice Award and both books received the highest review ratings from AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science). Her Trilogy “Born with a Bang”,From Lava to Life” and “Mammals who Morph” convey complex scientific information without diminishing the mystery and wonder and communicate the intrinsic part we as humanity play in the unfolding and evolving story of our universe. The trilogies illustrator Dana Lynn Andersen of Santa Rosa, California, is a multimedia artist, playwright and teacher with degrees in philosophy and consciousness studies. Her paintings, often very large in size, explore the swirling forces of energy that underlie matter and seek to reveal life s numinous mystery. She believes that as our depth perception expands billions of galaxies discovered in our lifetime! it is also essential to expand perception inwardly to the vastness within. She is founder of Awakening Arts, a network of artists who affirm the noble purpose of art as a vehicle for uplifting the human spirit. Dana provides programs and hands-on projects that have students creating like the Universe. This trilogy should be in every school across our nation as well as library for they truly open a new chapter in educational history where the magic and mystery of our universe is combined with hard science to create a tale that brings the open minds of children into a greater understanding of who they are and how we all are part of the universe and it’s grand story. Listen to some of the amazing comments about this fantastic trilogy: The most beautifully illustrated books I ve seen that deliver a powerful message to kids. Right now the books are on display in the classroom and fifth graders are treating them with utmost respect, many calling out, Mrs. Lyons, check this out! What a great way to foster interest. Thank you!!! Maura Lyons, 4th The series combines once upon a time with science. New York Times A FANTASTIC journey through time. It is the story of mammalian evolution told in a way that will engage and enchant, as well as educate, children and adults alike. It is a must for every school library and I shall give it to my grandchildren and my sister s grandchildren and my godchildren for Christmas and birthday presents . Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE Founder, Jane Goodall Institute UN Messenger of Peace These books are alive with wonder, radiance, and deep relevance . . . cosmic gifts that powerfully remind all humans about our source, our connections, and our responsibility. Now students have books to hold and read over and over again . Judy Bauerlein, President, American Montessori Society By learning where we come from we can agree on where we are going . . . [A] splendid job of telling that story. Matthew Fox, Ph.D., author, Original Blessing A primer for children of the 21st century. A must for all of us! Barbara Marx Hubbard, author, Conscious Evolution I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Jennifer, and I think you will truly enjoy hearing her share her remarkable story of how she brought these marvelous works into being.

This is why I m apprehensive about government lists. They always have errors. Once you are on the list is difficult to get off. Did you see that Senator Kennedy was on the list. Yep, Edward Kennedy. You can t tell me that this wasn t some twisted Republican thang. Another personal story about a distinguished professor from Princeton University being on the list. From NYT: The meeting had all the hallmarks of an ordinary Congressional hearing. There was Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Democrat of Massachusetts, discussing the problems faced by ordinary citizens mistakenly placed on terrorist watch lists. Then, to the astonishment of the crowd attending a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Thursday, Mr. Kennedy offered himself up as Exhibit A. Between March 1 and April 6, airline agents tried to block Mr. Kennedy from boarding airplanes on five occasions because his name resembled an alias used by a suspected terrorist who had been barred from flying on airlines in the United States, his aides and government officials said. (more ) In a separate story from CNN.com: A new government report says there are now more than three quarters of a million names on the U.S. government s terrorist watch list, raising concerns the list may be becoming too large. A Government Accountability Office study out Wednesday said the Terrorist Screening Center s watch list contained approximately 755,000 names. But because many potential suspects have multiple names or aliases on the list, investigators are not certain how many distinct individuals are actually represented.
