J The class also welcomes cooks and bakers who have never been published and those who simply want toorgamze and create their own non- published cookbook. “For many people who have never had food stories or recipes published, the idea o f creating such a project can be overwhelming," said Ritter. "My job is to remove the fear and anxiety so students can feel more comfortable about taking the first step.” For m ore in fo rm a tio n call Meridith McAdams at 669-6952 or Irene Ritter at 695-2148. role w e c a n ," P runk said.

T hese p rofessionals audit energy consum ption at buildings or plants and then offer ways to reduce elec tricity use. Invariably, their reco m m en d a tions involve the installation o f tech nologies that reduce energy use, the most promising o f w hich are passive in nature. These components are cou pled to electrically fed item s such as motors, lighting, air conditioning and other equipm ent to reduce elec tric consumption while they operate. Among the most popular passive energy-saving units are the Phase Liner, a device that recycles wasted electricity from an electric m otor, and the Fluorescent Light Controller. This saves up to 50 percent o f the electricity required to energize flu orescent bulbs. Leading the way in the develop ment of passive energy-saving tech nologies is Energy A utom ation Sys tems, Inc., based in Nashville, Tenn. T hrough m ore than 130 d ealers throughout the United States and in 40 co u n tries, the pro d u cts from EASI have helped more than 60,000 businesses save tens o f m illions o f dollars in electricity costs.
