One year after an innovative building retrofit project, the Empire State Building is ahead of plan and has exceeded its year one energy-efficiency guarantee by five percent, saving $2.4 million and establishing a commercial real estate model for reducing costs, maximizing return on investment, increasing real estate value, and protecting the environment.

Some artists can not reach you because their words do not ring true but
Curse & Kisses writes from his own experience that shared
experience that you likely have had all your own. When you have a
songwriter that is unabashedly, unapologetically raw and real what you
get is great music that reaches out and smacks you like an old friend.The
words are written right from deep inside where all that pain gets
tangled up, where the anger is pushed down. Curse & Kisses is a
true artist with words. He reaches deep inside faces his own anger and
pain and puts it all down on paper than turns it into something that
can reach millions of people in the form of music. "Lies" puts it all
out there. Its honest and a true reflection of an entire generations
emotions. It is unafraid! That is what makes great music. That zeal for
honesty. That raw emotion. The music that makes you feel naked in front
of the artist.Learn more about Curse & Kisses at: www.cursenkisses.com/epk
This Earth Day, sustainability pioneer Fetzer Vineyards announces completion of its revolutionary BIDA® wastewater treatment system, which relies on billions of worms to clean up the winery’s process water. The California vintner’s worms — which work in tandem with microbes to digest contaminants in greywater — are at the heart of a natural system from BioFiltro that uses 85% less energy to clean winery water, regenerating up to 17 million gallons annually for re-use in vineyards and landscaping. The new system is one of a number of Earth-friendly innovations Fetzer Vineyards has recently introduced in an effort to preserve vital resources and find ever-more-efficient ways to put planet conservation on an even playing field with premium winemaking.
