Permeable or not, this is in the case of glass, in fact the question. Light shines through, this is what most people think, however, this is not quite true. Low iron glass is aimed to protect cells, but it is supposed to also let more light energy shine on the modules than normal window glass. On the other hand, modern three-or four-glazed windows let light through, but form an energy-saving temperature barrier. This way in the winter the cold stays outside and the heat inside. In the summer modern windows can automatically darken and prevent the room from heating up - energy for air conditioning is therefore saved. Glass has a lot of potential, a fact the visitors to the trade fairs glasstec and solarpeq in Düsseldorf, will have the chance to convince themselves of.
UNICEF - Put It Right (http://bit.ly/do5things) is a 5 year initiative by UNICEF UK to inspire action to protect the rights of children everywhere. This film is a window into the world of children around the world who are missing out on these basic rights - the rights to learn, to clean water, to be healthy, to be looked after and just to be a child. The film shows their extraordinary resilience in tough times, but the question is simple -- Is this right?
Radiohead donated their track 'Videotape' to the film.

How To Improve Your Home Security - By Jason Harris
It has been reported that a burglary now happens every 15 seconds. As such, the chances of your own home actually being at risk from a break in are greatly increased, and it does not matter where you live.
However, when people think of a break in, they think of someone gaining entry in to their home through breaking some glass or smashing down doors. Yet there are certain things which could actually extend an invitation to those unwanted intruders to make an attempt at getting into your home.
There are many places which are vulnerable to attack from an intruder to your home, and therefore you must set up a routine which will then provide them with less opportunities of attempting to break in. Below, we look at what are considered to be some of the weak areas in your home security routine which could help to prevent any kind of break in from occurring.
