I knew then that the book's migration to the digital realm would not be a simple matter of trading ink for pixels, but would likely change the way we read, write and sell books in profound ways. It will make it easier for us to buy books, but at the same

The first Fitness Park licensed by the German Nordic Walking Association is situated in the middle of the romantic landscape of the Vesser Valley in Thuringia. The 60 km trail is comprised of 4 separate routes that pass through the NORDIC FITNESS PARK ON THE RENNSTEIG. A classification by distance and difficulty makes the selection of a suitable route easier for everyone. Entrance signs at the starting points in Vesser and at the Ringberg Hotel Suhl give information on technique and equipment as well as on the ideal strain and heart rate. A special highlight is the annual GutsMuths-Rennsteiglauf (cross-country ultramarathon), the biggest ultramarathon in Central Europe. Back to top

I recently followed a group of eight public high school students, aged 15 to 17, in western Massachusetts as they designed and ran their own school within a school. They represented the usual range: two were close to dropping out before they started the project, while others were honors students. They named their school the Independent Project. The students in the Independent Project are remarkable but not because they are exceptionally motivated or unusually talented. They are remarkable because they demonstrate the kinds of learning and personal growth that are possible when teenagers feel ownership of their high school experience, when they learn things that matter to them and when they learn together. In such a setting, school capitalizes on rather than thwarts the intensity and engagement that teenagers usually reserve for sports, protest or friendship.
