Part one – PA Dutch Pow-Wow
Part two – Alternative Energy Series: Solar

Powwowing has been practiced in Pennsylvania since the first German-speaking settlements were established here in the early eighteenth century. Some say the healing art draws on the power of God; others say it's the work of Satan, but who knew it was still practiced today? We'll also talk about the futuristic house designed by Penn State students for the "Solar Decathlon."

The term “Power Walking” has a whole new meaning, thanks to a knee-mounted device that can covert the kinetic energy of walking into useable electricity. We'll talk with one of the inventors about how the knee-brace works and about its potential. We'll also talk about a previously untapped source of energy in Pennsylvania and the innovative methods being used to capture it.
