Solar yard lights work on solar energy, derived from the Sun. The basic mechanism of solar yard lights is the conversion of solar energy into electrical energy, which is brought about with the help of heat sensors, photo voltaic cells, batteries and semi conductors. The photo voltaic cells are the basis of any solar energy system and these are made of semi conductors. The most commonly used semi conductor is Silicon. When the solar energy or sun light falls on the photo voltaic cells, some amount of this solar energy is absorbed by the semi conductors and it activates the electrons and releases them. Electricity is nothing but flow of electrons. This is the very basic explanation of the process. The solar lights are designed to automatically sense dawn and dusk. So they switch on and off according to the necessity of lighting. Harnessing solar energy is quite an important issue in the modern times of energy shortage and depletion of other non sustainable sources. The Green Earth project and other similar global awareness projects are trying to create awareness about various ways to save the earth from pollution. Solar energy is a green energy which means that it does not give off toxic gases and chemicals to pollute the environment. Above all, it is a Sustainable form of energy, because it is non-depleting and additionally, is available freely and abundantly. All these factors make it all the more imperative to explore solar energy. Solar Yard lights are an excellent way to light up the yards and save a lot on the monthly power bills. Basically there are two types of solar yard lights, individual and wired solar lights. Wired are best when the area to be lighted up does not receive sufficient sunlight during the daytime. There is a central solar cell which produces electricity and then sends it to the different areas where lighting is needed through wires. But if the area to be lighted up is amply heated with sunlight during daytime, the individual solar yard lights are the best. Installation is easy with individual solar yard lights, but holes need to be dug up for the wires to pass in the case of wired solar yard lights.

The size also varies from small short lights lining the garden or left hanging on a pole in the yard or fixed on to poles. The choice is over whelming.

The price ranges any where between $20- $150. There are numerous online stores selling these beautiful and energy saving solar yard lights. Some of them offer free installation and other after sales services too.

The exceptionally talented Rock group Electric Light Orchestra have released their CD entitled Face The Music. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Electric Light Orchestra fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Face The Music their artistic excellence is on full display as they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be their best work to date.

Face The Music launches with an outstanding track, Fire On High, that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It’s a really nice track.

Face The Music has a nicely varied, mix of 12 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly superb musicians. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They’re all here.

If you’re a Electric Light Orchestra fan, or just a fan of Rock music this is a CD your collection simply should not be without.

While the entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 3 – Evil Woman, track 12 – Waterfall, and track 7 – Down Home Town

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – Fire On High. This is a great track!
