"On a Heuristic Viewpoint Concerning the Production and Transformation of Light"

Solar energy can generate heat, as Mouchout did, for electricity. And sophisticated engineering applied to converting sunlight to heat can be very effective indeed. A solar water heater has a black surface that absorbs sunlight and gets hot. The water circulating through the black surface absorbs heat from the surface and is stored in an insulated tank. Nothing complicated about it! Solar water heaters were popular in Florida & California in the 1920s. As of 2005, solar water heat is now required in new construction in Israel & Spain, and capacity grew by 23% in China..

Solar energy can be used to produce electricity by first converting sunlight to heat, then using the heat to generate steam to drive a turbine. Like a magnifying glass, solar thermal electric power plants collect the sun's energy. Some common designs:

1. Parabolic trough collectors to focus sunlight on a fluid-filled tube,
2. Flat, moveable mirrors (heliostats) which reflect and concentrate sunlight on a collector tower, and
3. Large reflective parabolic dish which focuses sunlight on a Stirling engine

Why BMW... ...will not succeed!

Looking at the Gurgaon skyline while sipping his cappuccino this hot day of July 2007, Peter Kronschnabl, President, BMW India, looks dangerously confident to us, belying all our boastful analytical claims about why BMW will not succeed in making money in India (at least not in the next five years). Does his confidence emanate out of the March 2007 inauguration of BMW’s first plant in India in Chennai? Or is it the fact that India is the second fastest growing car market in the world? Or that the last year has been the most successful ever in BMW’s international 90-year-old history? Well, we weren’t ready to give up investigating...

So what gives, Peter? For starters, as a cutting edge strategy, Peter is honed on to market BMW’s volume product – the 3 series petrol beast – in two separate segments, the 320i model for the entry level consumers, and the top end 325i for the performance driven. This ‘segmentisation’ within a segment has been a first in this sector, whereas competitors sell only one variant in the bread and butter segments, namely Audi’s A4 2.0 and Mercedes Benz C200. Apparently, BMW will do product differentiation between its top and entry level models for full utilization of the available product line up. But would Indians really care for this ‘differentiation’?

Ukraine is swiftly wiping out its old memories & scampering towards development, backed by strong industrial & agricultural sectors. The current socio-economic developments in an otherwise fractured & volatile polity are undoubtedly a big achievement.

While slow pace of reforms implementation had an opportunity cost attached with, in 2006, the output grew upto 100% and compensated for the same. Most importantly, Ukraine has developed a strong civil society through the serene ‘Orange Revolution’ that helped to institutionalise and organize the government activities along with the help of various NGOs & Task Groups.

The canary is dying, but has anyone noticed?

Is this the millennium melt down, or maybe, the time of change and atonement by humankind? Not only are we realizing that humankind is not separate from Nature, but we are also understanding we are just a single species amongst the myriad of life on this planet. A humbling fact is that while Nature can survive without us, we definitely cannot survive without the intricate processes of Nature. Are we to become as a species, an evolutionary firework, burning brightly and loudly at the beginning, then spluttering, and choking before petering out? Why has it taken so long to heed the warning signs of impending danger? Did the ever rising number of endangered species tell us nothing? We kill the forests and all their layered intricate workings, workings that contain more than half of the Earth’s species. The forests have been described as the most creative laboratories on earth, providing over half the pharmaceutical products used by humankind. Yet we destroy them.
