A towering evergreen dominates Rockefeller Plaza each year as the largest tree in the land. Standing about 80 feet high, it features a mile of wiring and consumes electricity comparable to two and a half years of a typical home. An expert buyer scouts surrounding states for the perfect specimen and transports it through quiet early morning hours to minimize traffic.

Mikado Michigan to be renamed Roosevelt amid town name shame
A small Lake Huron area town of about 125 residents seeks to change its name from Mikado to Roosevelt to avoid memory of Japan's wartime actions. A former Mikado existed in Gogebic county, where a C N W depot once bore the name between Ramsay and Wakefield, later becoming Verona as ore supplies waned. The Wakefield area now uses Verona merely as a location within the city, with about 200 residents.
