Mr Photosensitive
Article Abstract:
Greenpeace campaigner, Dr Jeremy Leggett, organised a summit on solar energy which 50 financial companies in the UK attended. Some have pledged financial help towards promoting photovoltaics as a means of conserving energy. Photovoltaics uses solar panels to turn light into electricity, and it can also be used as insulation in buildings. National Westminster Bank and Guardian Royal Exchange have now ordered solar panels, and Leggett hopes that other companies and organisations will follow their lead, and his goal is to be able to provide the developing world with electricity.

And that's the truth
Article Abstract:
A National Organization for Women (NOW) chapter president who accused National NOW of being passive on the issue of domestic violence has been reprimanded by her state board and the National Board of NOW for taking actions injurious to the organization's name. Undoubtedly, the accusation had caused havoc within the organization and disillusioned some NOW members. NOW clarifies that the reprimand is not an issue about domestic violence but an organizational matter that should have remained as such had the media not intervened on the issue.
