The Driver follows my attempt to duplicate Claude Lelouch's Rendezvous (albeit around Manhattan), the creation of Team Polizei, the discovery of the now-infamous Polizei BMW M5, our debut on the 2003 Gumball 3000, my ignominous capture on the 2004 Bullrun USA, and many more adventures so far known only through snippets on YouTube...culminating with my delving into the true history of the Cannonball Run and U.S. Express, the underground cross-country races from which modern endurance rallies descended and the long-secret record whose true story has yet to be told. This event took place on July 8, 2008. Stay tuned to the end of the video for some footage of Alex's Team Polizie BMW M5, which he graciously brought by the Google NY office!!!

Authors@Google: Janet Carlson Janet Carlson visits Google's Mountain View, CA headquarters to discuss her book "Quick, Before the Music Stops: How Ballroom Dancing Saved My Life." This event took place on July 25, 2008, as part of the Authors@Google series. In her twenties, Janet Carlson was a successful competitive ballroom dancer who left dancing to raise a family and pursue a more "suitable" profession. Twenty years later she had it all: a beautiful family, a glamorous job, and an aching feeling that something was missing from her life--until one Valentine's Day when her husband gave her ballroom dancing classes as a gift, and Carlson rediscovered the joy and confidence she had been missing for so long.Based on a popular piece she wrote for" O, The Oprah Magazine," "Quick, Before the Music Stops "is Carlson's exuberant story of how dance helped her find her footing as a woman. Falling backward into a partner's arms, she learned a new sense of trust; surrendering herself to the music taught her to let go of her need for control in her life; and the unspoken yet intimate communication of dance broke through emotional barriers that confined her spirit. Carlson's title echoes what George Balanchine used to command his dancers: "What are you saving it for? Do it now!" Her memoir carries this message of seizing the moment to every woman looking for a way to soar beyond the earth-bound demands of work and family Janet Carlson is the Beauty & Health Director at Town & Country magazine. She has written articles for O the Oprah Magazine, Elle, Redbook, and Departures, among other publications, and she blogs for the Huffington Post Living Section. She studied ballet and jazz as a child and began ballroom dancing during her college years at Yale University. After graduating, she competed around the country for seven years, and then stopped to pursue her magazine career and start a family. She returned to the dance studio twenty years later and is now certified by the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing, and has co-taught a social dance program called Dance for Joy in the Caribbean. Carlson lives in Westchester County, New York with her two daughters. Visit her website at www.janetcarlson.net.

Authors@Google: Kyle Cassidy The Authors@Google program was pleased to welcome Kyle Cassidy to Google's New York office to discuss his book, "Armed America: Portraits of Gun Owners in Their Homes". Kyle Cassidy has been a freelance writer and photographer since 1999. His photographs have been published in the New York Times, Baaron's Financial, and the Philadelphia Inquirer. He writes frequently about technology and has been an outspoken voice in the area of practical modern photographic theory. Largely known for his fashion and portrait photography, he became interested in photographing gun owners during the 2004 Presidential Election. The question of gun ownership in America is a fractious one. Even the number of guns in the country is in significant debate. The National Rifle Association (NRA), the country's largest pro-gun lobbying group, quotes the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE)'s estimate that in 1999 there were about 215,000,000 guns in America and one gun in about half of the households in the country. The Brady Campaign (the nation's leading anti-gun coalition) estimates there are 192,000,000 guns in America, owned by 39% of the population. This isn't a book about guns. It's a book about people. Whether it's 39% or 50% of Americans, it's still an awful lot of people. I started wondering just who they were, what they looked like, and how they lived. Such was the genesis of Armed America: Portraits of American Gun Owners in Their Homes. The idea was to photograph a hundred gun owners, in their homes, and do a gallery show. I figured this would take about two years. But very soon after I started, it became evident that my ambitions were too low. My mailbox flooded with letters from people I didn't know wanting to participate -- I realized that I could probably photograph a hundred people in two months, but it wasn't a number of people that was important, it was their stories -- a cowboy in Texas, a survivalist in Montana, a deer hunter in Pennsylvania, a sheriff in Georgia, a soldier in Idaho.... What I really needed, I realized, was to get moving, to drive across the country and find America somewhere between here and there. This event took place on July 22, 2008.

Authors@Google: Mital Shah and Mark Leibowitz Mitah Shah and Mark Leibowitz visit Google's headquarters in Mountain View, CA, to discuss the project "Well Souled". This event took place July 29, 2008, as part of the Authors@Google series. For more info on Well Souled, visit http://www.wellsouled.com/frameset.html At the heart of Well Souled is the belief that lasting impressions are those that come naturally through the people you meet on your travels and how they connect you to the context, sharing their perspectives on the attitudes, sounds, colors, and textures that surround you. This is how travel becomes emotional -- soulful. Well Souled translates this kind of cultural immersion into lifestyle products that celebrate the sensory experience of travel. In each country, Well Souled has identified a primary social initiative and will join forces with an established non-profit partner to implement its vision with integrity and transparency. First stop: South Africa. Here, township style pulses to kwaito beats and "the mountain" is covered by a tablecloth of clouds. Here, you find people living on laughter, luxury alongside aspiration, and children, orphaned by AIDS, embracing the future. In South Africa, Well Souled will partner with leaders in HIV/AIDS research, prevention, and treatment to help these children do so.

Authors@Google: Peter Sagal Peter Sagal visits Google's Mountain View, CA headquarters to discuss his book "The Book of Vice: Very Naughty Things (and How to Do Them)." This event took place on July 23, 2008, as part of the Authors@Google series. Somewhere, somebody is having more fun than you are. Or so everyone believes. Peter Sagal, a mild-mannered, Harvard-educated NPR host—the man who put the second "L" in "vanilla"—decided to find out if it's true. From strip clubs to gambling halls to swingers clubs to porn sets—and then back to the strip clubs, but only because he left his glasses there—Sagal explores exactly what the sinful folk do, how much they pay for the privilege, and exactly how they got those funny red marks. He hosts a dinner for three of the smartest porn stars in the world, asks the floor manager at the oldest casino in Vegas how to beat the house, and indulges in molecular cuisine at the finest restaurant in the country. Meet liars and rich people who don't think consumption is a disease, encounter the most spectacular view ever seen from a urinal, and say hello to Nina Hartley, the only porn star who can discuss Nietzsche while strangers smack her butt. With a sharp wit, a remarkable eye for detail, and the carefree insouciance that can only come from not having any idea what he's getting into, Sagal proves to be the perfect guide to sinful behavior. What happens in Vegas—and in less glamorous places—is all laid out in these pages, a modern version of Dante's Inferno, except with more jokes. Peter Sagal (www.petersagal.com) is the host of Wait Wait . . . Don't Tell Me!,™ the NPR ™ news quiz. He is also an award-winning playwright, occasional screenwriter, onetime extra in a Michael Jackson music video, former staff writer for a motorcycle magazine, and a regular contributor to "The Funny Pages" in the New York Times Sunday Magazine. Sagal lives near Chicago with his wife and three daughters. This is his first book.

This event took place on July 22, 2008, as part of the Authors@Google series. More than half of America's processed grocery products -- from corn flakes to granola bars to diet drinks -- contain genetically altered ingredients. They are unlabeled and untested, and we are eating them.

This accessible guide is for concerned parents -- as well as anyone concerned about genetically altered foods -- who want to know more about the potential health risks, the organic alternatives, and the methods available to counter the corporate takeover of the food we eat.

Authors@Google: Mahvish Khan The Authors@Google program welcomed Mahvish Khan to Google's New York office to dicuss her debut book, "My Guantánamo Diary". "Google got me to Gitmo," is the first line of the book, a young woman's odyssey as she enters the world of Guantanamo Bay Cuba as a translator for the teams of laywers defending the detainees there. Mahvish Khan is an American lawyer, born to immigrant Afghan parents in Michigan. Determined to bring the due process of law to the people imprisoned at Guantanamo, she volunteered to translate for the prisoners. She spoke their language, understood their customs, and brought them Starbucks chai, the closest available drink to the kind of tea they would drink at home. And they quickly befriended her, offering fatherly advice as well as a uniquely personal insight into their plight, and that of their families thousands of miles away. For Mahvish Khan the experience was a validation of her Afghan heritage—as well as her American freedoms, which allowed her to intervene at Guantanamo purely out of her sense that it was the right thing to do. Mahvish Khan's story is a challenging, brave, and essential test of who she is —and who we are. This event took place on July 18, 2008. Tags: Mahvish Khan Gitmo Guantanamo Bay post 9/11 persecution

Women@Google: Michealene Cristini Risley Michealene Cristini Risley visits Google's headquarters in Mountain View, Ca, to discuss her documentary "Tapestries of Hope". This event took place June 24, 2008, as a part of the Women@Google series. For more information, please visit http://www.tapestriesofhope.com/ As a survivor of child sexual abuse, Michealene discusses how she overcame this event in her life, why it is so important that this issue be recognized, and what can be done to eradicate this issue in America and elsewhere. She will talk about her projects, as a filmmaker and writer, to address human rights and child abuse issues, such as her latest documentary, "Tapestries of Hope." In the making of "Tapestries," Michealene travels to Zimbabwe to document Betty Makoni and the Girl Child Network, and to expose an issue that continues to be ignored: the rape and sexual abuse of thousands of young girls in Zimbabwe. The cause of these rapes is shocking: men with HIV and AIDS are counseled by local traditional healers that if they have sex with a virgin, their blood will be purified and they will be cured of the disease. The rape and abuse is out of control with little to no legal or societal consequence. Michealene is also planning a trip to Botswana to work with human rights activists to set a satellite human rights office for the Girl Child Network.

Lesser known is Lee s love for humor and pop culture. He once published a book of photo humor called Golfers Anonymous as well as editing and writing a magazine featuring celebrity humor called You Don t Say!

Authors@Google: J. Maarten Troost Maarten Troost visits Google's Mountain View, CA headquarters to discuss his book "Lost on Planet China: The Strange and True Story of One Man's Attempt to Understand the World's Most Mystifying Nation, or How He Became Comfortable Eating Live Squid." This event took place on July 16, 2008, as part of the Authors@Google series. Lost on Planet China finds Troost dodging deadly drivers in Shanghai; eating Yak in Tibet; deciphering restaurant menus (offering local favorites such as Cattle Penis with Garlic); visiting with Chairman Mao (still dead, very orange); and hiking (with 80,000 other people) up Tai Shan, China's most revered mountain. But in addition to his trademark gonzo adventures, the book also delivers a telling look at a vast and complex country on the brink of transformation that will soon shape the way we all work, live, and think. As Troost shows, while we may be familiar with Yao Ming or dim sum or the cheap, plastic products that line the shelves of every store, the real China remains a world—indeed, a planet--unto itself. Maarten Troost brings China to life as you've never seen it before, and his insightful, rip-roaringly funny narrative proves that once again he is one of the most entertaining and insightful armchair travel companions around. J. MAARTEN TROOST is the author of Getting Stoned with Savages and The Sex Lives of Cannibals. His essays have appeared in the Atlantic Monthly, the Washington Post, and the Prague Post. He spent two years in Kiribati in the Equatorial Pacific and upon his return was hired as a consultant by the World Bank. After several years in Fiji and Vanuatu, he recently relocated to the U.S. and now lives with his wife and two sons in California.
