The Dream & The Myth of The Paperless City
Click here or on the link below to read an interesting article about a proposed plan for Chicago to go paperless by 2015.

New Sterling Premium by NewPage
NewPage Paper has announced that they are discontinuing their Centura, Productolith, and Sterling Ultra lines. They have "shifted" gears and designed Sterling Premium,"the only paper you’ll ever want or need".
The New Sterling Premium is smoother than the previous grades because it has three layers of coating as opposed to two. The brightness of 94 puts it at a Premium/Number One level, and it is priced as a Number Two. Printers, Designers, and the end client will be happy with this new grade because of it's premium qualities, the excellent printability, and it's affordable price.
