Tree seedlings grow on the turf of the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, Mich. The 80,000-seat indoor stadium hosted the Super Bowl, the NBA finals, the World Cup, Wrestlemania and concerts by Elvis Presley, Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones. Nowadays, the venue is a shell of its former self with its roof in tatters and a lack of electrical power that has left the stadium’s innards dark and mold-covered. The Silverdome’s current owner is determined to cash in before it’s too late, putting everything inside up for auction starting on Wednesday, May 21. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)

The exterior of an Office Max store in Chicago. Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan is pushing to give small companies in the state equal access to the tax breaks that big corporations have. The plan takes aim at special EDGE credits _ tax breaks a small number of big companies like Sears Holding Corp. and OfficeMax have sought by going directly to the General Assembly with threats to leave Illinois. Madigan's plan would make the tax credits available to businesses with fewer than 100 employees, and target credits at areas of high poverty and unemployment. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast, File)
