Today's News: The Sun craze is on and as more and more humans endeavor creatively at the craft of solar product making, they, like Sony and a few other mega companies of years past - have already begun to master the art of miniaturizing solar panels. They're called Sun Pods and they can be configured in any way imaginable. Sun Pods new
innovative transportable, self-contained, modular solar power platforms
are pre-engineered, pre-manufactured and pre-tested in a rigorous
factory setting. Turbine, water, solar...what next? No matter what way you power your home, Elite Fixtures has a matching lamp!

Today's News: Wonders never cease in the 'go-green' arena. University teams of students have built 20 solar powered houses for a U.S.
Department of Energy sponsored competition in Ca. The houses were reassembled
on the National Mall for display and judged on their use of technology, design
and other attributes. The houses are quite remarkable. The issue as to mass marketability it seems, is always GREEN
- as in money. It cost a bundle to build these babies. Mass marketing
on them may be a wash for now, but at least mass human mind is on the way to enlightenment in terms of green philosophy.

Today's News: NOW WHAT? For all that we Americans have been through, what else could the government pull in terms of energy stunts? This one seems not to be in the form of public utility issues, but certain new rules by Congress may affect how everyday people spend they personal energy in the coming days. Seems there are new crackdown laws brewing - on charities of all things. The IRS is now going to spotlight people for charitable deductions. Maybe they'll only hit the mid-rich, who tend to donate in the six figure range. But we should keep an alert eye out. Soon enough all those neighborhood abandoned puppies and kitties may have no funding and all charities will be left groping for funds in the dark.
