2010: Time to ‘Go Green’
By Sharad Agarwal
The sun provides more energy to the earth in one day than the cumulative annual energy requirements of 6 billion people on the planet.
The new year is a good time to explore new technologies.
Here is the good news. The next generation handheld solar chargers for mobile phones and iPods are now available in the Middle East. The SOLIO solar chargers use the energy from the sun to keep virtually all electronics topped off with free solar power anywhere.
The SOLIO universal ‘hybrid’ solar charger is powerful enough to charge all handheld electronic products at home, work or on the move. The SOLIO hybrid works by absorbing power from either 4 hours in the wall socket or 8 to 10 hours of direct sunlight, and then storing the energy within its internal battery. Once the SOLIO’s battery is full, the unit can charge a cell phone, iPod, MP3 player, PDA, game player, GPS, fish finder or digital camera, making it a powerful all-in-one battery charger. The universal charger is also environmentally friendly and cost effective, as the sun based energy is completely free and creates no harmful impacts. And the design couldn’t be simpler, with a fan-blade outlay that achieves maximum solar area when in use.

Little Corn, Nicaragua – a world away from Dubai
By Rebecca Wicks
Big Corn’s baby sister, Little Corn, is a 3km long island in the Caribbean sea off the coast of Nicaragua. With less than a thousand residents, the major players in guidebook land have dedicated just a few less-than-detailed pages about its glory. Big smiled Betsy, the main host at our chosen place of accommodation, Casa Iguana, gives our bags to a porter who carts them off before us on a wheelbarrow as soon as we arrive on a tiny boat (there are no cars at all on Little Corn, and only marginally more dogs than people).

FYI by Mehwash Khan
The Roads Oft Taken
Driving from home to work usually takes about 30 minutes on a quiet morning. Driving back may take longer. It’s a good time to reflect on events that have happened or may be coming up. It’s also a very good time to think of the people in my life, appointments that I must keep, commitments that I have made, shopping lists, the menu for the week, take exit 32…..and I missed that again!
