* Congratulations to United Therapeutics on the groundbreaking ceremony for the new addition to its corporate headquarters in Silver Spring! It was actually a meter-breaking event, since the new building will be "net zero," generating its own electric power, and possibly being able to give some power back to the grid. Click here to see the pictures, taken by Adam S. Lowe Photography.
* At a new workspace pop-up in downtown Silver Spring called "Outbox", you can escape your office's fluorescent lights to achieve the grown-up version of having class outside. The workspace, created through a collaboration between Downtown Silver Spring, Peterson Companies and Montgomery College, with sponsorship by Adventist HealthCare, will launch today with seating, tables, free WiFi, and electrical outlets available for out-of-office workers to use Monday through Friday every week this summer. Click here for more information.

* Join the Silver Spring/Takoma Park Thunderbolts at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 8, for their Season Opener at Blair High School Stadium. The Thunderbolts are Silver Spring's own 'wooden baseball bat' team in the Cal Ripken League, one of the Country's best collegiate summer baseball leagues. Click here for more information.
* The Silver Spring Library will kickoff its Summer Reading Program from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Saturday, June 11, right outside the library. Matthew Paul, a performer with the Big Apple Circus, will entertain with juggling, balancing, music, bubble blowing, and popsicles.
