The Connecticut Clean Energy Fund was formed by the Connecticut state legislature in 2000. On Monday, CCEF chose 11 “clean power” projects that will be built under a ratepayer-funded subsidy program and generate about 160 megawatts of electricity.
Seven of the projects would run on fuel cells, a technology that uses hydrogen – typically derived from natural gas – to produce electricity through a chemical reaction. Most of the plants would be in Fairfield County, with the fuel cells and technology to be supplied by Connecticut companies. (more…)

The knowledge that the chemicals we put on our body can be absorbed through the skin and enter our bloodstream has lead me on a search for a natural deodorant that’s not only safe to use, but also actually works.
And I’ve hit the jackpot — aah, the sweet smell of success! Erbaviva offers two different blends of 100% USDA certified organic deodorant; each has a lovely scent, and is very effective. Mixed with a base of organic grain alcohol, and available as either Sage & Lemon or Jasmine & Grapefruit — they contain no chemicals, synthetic preservatives, colorants, fillers, and most importantly, no aluminum. These powerful elixirs with organic essential oils at their core, score on all fronts; they neutralize odor, combat bacteria and don’t clog pores.
Having received official USDA organic certification this past January, erbaviva’s founder, Robin Brown, tells us: “While our company has been producing true organic products — completely free from pollutants, pesticides, artificial fertilizers, harsh detergents, chemical fragrances and other unhealthy additives since our inception more than a decade ago, we are pleased to be one of the few skincare companies that now has the official certification of organic purity from the US government. It reinforces our company’s mission of producing a quality product that our customers can trust is pure and natural, ethically and ecologically sound, while protecting the environment.” (more…)
The ergonomic, clean lines of these pieces are a striking testament to modern, utilitarian design. The curved lower portion of the design provides a sweet little storage bin – while also promoting the chair’s use as a gentle rocker.
Constructed of birch ply, they’re assembled without adhesives, using a small number of steel screws for assembly. At the end of their life-cycle they can be readily disassembled for recycling.
The Sunday chair goes for £240 @ u.k. based – ryanfrank.net
