“An intelligent pavement that could generate power and pay for itself” without using petroleum in asphalt, that’s what a solar roadway could be. In a fitting tribute to a disgraceful performance by Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen in which Cowen crammed losses of Irish banks down the throats of taxpayers, his government has at long last collapsed. Six cabinet members (40%) resigned representing justice, health, trade and enterprise, defense and transport.

But in the US, the interlocking nexus between the big banks [...] Twelve vertical wind turbines power exterior lights for the building, can use wind from any direction, and operate in as little as 11 mph of wind. I like the way the turbines are incorporated into the look of the building. [...] El Universal urges the government of Mexico to request the UN to label the cartels as terrorists.
