www.bloomsbury.com Colum McCann talks about the inspiration behind Let the Great World Spin published by Bloomsbury Publishing in September 2009. New York, August 1974. A man is walking the sky. The city stands still in awe. Between the newly built Twin Towers the man is striding, twirling and showboating his way through the air. One hundred and ten stories below him, the lives of eight strangers spin towards each other... Corrigan, a radical, passionate Irish monk working in the Bronx with a clutch of prostitutes; Claire, a delicate Upper East Side housewife reeling from the death of her son in Vietnam; her husband Solomon, a cynical judge turning over petty criminals in a downtown court; Lara, a young artist struggling with a spiralling drug addiction and a doomed marriage; Fernando, a thirteen-year-old photographer chasing underground graffiti; Gloria, solid and proud despite decades of hardship; Tillie, a courageous hooker who used to dream of a better life; and Jazzlyn, her beautiful, reckless daughter raised on promises that reach beyond the high-rises of New York. Set against a time of sweeping political and social change, from the backlash against the Vietnam War and the lingering spectre of the oil crisis to the beginnings of the Internet -- a time that hauntingly mirrors the present time -- these disparate lives will collide in the shadow of one reckless and beautiful act, and be transformed for ever. Weaving together themes of love, loss, belonging, duty and <b>...</b>

Sybase Inc. saved millions of dollars in power costs and avoided a space expansion project by investing in environmentally friendly technologies such as virtualization software and Sybase IQ. Because Sybase IQ is a column based database, the Sybase IQ data compression technology is eco friendly and produces 85 percent less carbon dioxide than a traditional database. www.sybase.com [Video Transcript] Faced with rising cooling and space needs in its data center, Sybases IT department undertook a project to reduce the centers energy usage. The project was aimed at reducing costs, decreasing Sybases carbon footprint and avoiding expansion of the data center. As a CFO, we are trying to balance both whats best from a bottom line perspective, what makes sense both from a cost and from a return on the investment perspective, and then what kind of image we are trying to portray as a company, both to the outside world and to our employees. When we look at various projects, and green projects, and whether they make sense and whether its something the company would be interested in them. The number one concern still is, does it make sense from a bottom line. I would say that lately there are a lot more very cost attractive things the companies can do and in many cases going green is very good for business. Its very good for the bottom line. Sybase has been very proactive in exploring green alternatives, both from the standpoint of some of our products, which have a high green <b>...</b>

When Colum McCann won the National Book Award last week, for his wonderful novel, "Let the Great World Spin," he became the first Irish author to win the award (and dedicated it to his fellow Irish-American, Frank McCourt, who recently died). In July, I heard Colum read at the Seattle Public Library, then shared a couple pints with him and his brother, Ronan, at the Irish pub, Fado, where I asked Colum about the mechanics of his writing life.
