Alternative Energy

Welcome to the Alternative Energy Resource Center. This site is designed to help you quickly and easily find the latest alternative energy reviews, alternative energy tutorials and books, various videos talking about alternative energy and alternative energy products for sale.

Biofuel is hot news, and is fuel in the form of a liquid, a solid or a gas that is derived from recently dead biological material as opposed to fossil fuel, which comes from very old dead biological material.

Another alternative fuel is wind power. The principle application of wind power is to generate electricity. Most turbines are three- bladed and can be seen around the world in various places. I pass a dozen or so when visiting my children in Cornwall in the UK. Large scale wind farms are connected to electrical grids. Single turbines can provide electricity to isolated locations. In the case of windmills, wind energy is used directly as mechanical energy for pumping water or grinding grain.

There are other forms of alternative energy and I find the whole subject fascinating. Information about alternative energy on this site is updated hourly, so if you are interested in the subject of alternative energy in general, please bookmark this site so you can visit often. I hope you find it useful.

Solay Himalayan Salt Crystal Lamps (9-13lbs)Solay Himalayan Salt Crystal Lamps (9-13lbs)

Solay Salt crystal lamps harness a very high energy frequency, neutralizing EMF from our modern day living.  We recommend at least one lamp per room, al though with salt lamps, you can never have too many to help you stay well. Scientific studies have shown that salt crystal lamps can increase the negative ion count by up to 300%. Negative ionized air drastically reduces the number of indoor airborne bacteria and dust. Negative ions also benefit asthma patients, people with chronic lung illnesses, and allergy sufferers. As well, they help improve learning, memory, and emotional well being. By creating a balance of ions in the air, they stimulate natural drive and healthy energy. Their colors create a pleasantly calming and warm environment. A Solay Salt Lamp is an excellent source of negative ions and is strikingly beautiful, blending favorably with any environment. Heating the salt crystal with a bulb inside the lamp releases negative ions into the air. The salt crystal lamp improves air quality and your bodys health. For a constant ionizing effect, it is recommended that you light your lamp every day for optimal cleansing results. When a lamp warms, it attracts humidity and the surface of the salt crystal becomes damp. Negative ions build up and then released. Crystal salt lamps bind the excessive positive ions with their negative ions. The ions cleanse the air of harmful electro smog and other toxins. Known as Natures Ionizers, Salt Crystal Lamps eliminate a host of indoor air pollutants. Natural salt has been exposed to massive pressure for millions of years, it has resulted in the formation of this durable crystal salt. The more pressure on the crystal salt, the stronger its composition. This is why salt crystal lamps will not reduce in size, color, shape, or their ionizing effect. They are a long-lasting and stunning addition to any home or office.


Solay Himalayan Salt Crystal Lamps (5-7lbs)Solay Himalayan Salt Crystal Lamps (5-7lbs)

Our beautiful salt lamps, from the foothills of Himalayan Mountains are more than just pretty to look at - they're good for you. Salt crystal lamps generate healthy negative ions that cleanse the air. Ever experienced the change in the air after a good rain? That's from negative ions, and that's what these lamps do, and they don't lose their power over time. Scientific studies have shown that salt crystal lamps can increase the negative ion count by up to 300%. Negative ionized air drastically reduces the number of indoor airborne bacteria and dust.

Solay Polish Crystal Lamps (6-10 lbs)Solay Polish Crystal Lamps (6-10 lbs)

Polish crystal is more expensive and believed to produce more ions due to the larger surface area. Polish crystal is like a cluster of small crystals, with consistent mineral coloring throughout the lamp and an artful shape ranging from rounder to almost pyramidal. This crystal stands on three small feet without wood pedestal. Scientific studies have shown that salt crystal lamps can increase the negative ion count by up to 300%.

Qigong: Traditional Chinese Exercises for Healing Body, Mind, and SpiritQigong: Traditional Chinese Exercises for Healing Body, Mind, and Spirit

Qigong is Chinese meditation in motion, an ancient healing art using posture, exercise, breathing, and concentration. This video shows you how to harness the power of qi--the energy of the universe--to heal body and mind. Qigong uses dynamic, gentle movements and meditative postures. The video starts with a warm-up of whole-body breathing. Then master instructor Ken Cohen teaches a selection of exercise sets to cleanse the body, recharge it with fresh qi, circulate qi where it is needed, and disperse stagnant areas. He also teaches a series of healing sounds and techniques of standing meditation and walking meditation, along with posture and self-massage. This is a fine introduction to qigong, with many months of learning in this one 90-minute video. The setting is outdoors and seems Asian, with rocks, greenery, and a wooden bridge. Informational booklet included. --Joan Price

This is a 40 Watt Mono-crystalline Solar Panel and 12V Charger. You could be eligible for up to $2000 of energy rebate in California and some states for converting your home power to solar. Please check with your local utility company. The solar panel is waterproof. The working voltage for charging is 17.2V. If you need to use it to charge a car battery, you may need a charge controller to prevent the battery from overcharging. Connections included: alligator battery clamps. There are three types of Solar Cells on the market. All our Solar chargers use the best - Mono-Crystalline Solar Cells. Amorphous or Dual Junction Solar Glass are the cheapest but are only 7% energy efficient and have 5 years of service life. They are big and heavy. Poly-Crystalline have 25 plus years of service life under direct sunlight and are 13% efficient. Mono-Crystalline have 25 plus years of service life and are up to 20% efficient. This is the same type used in solar car racing. This type of solar cells is now in a worldwide shortage because only a few companies can manufacture these solar cells.

The Alternative Trinity
The Trinity of orthodox Christianity is harmonious. The Trinity for Blake is, conspicuously, not a happy family: the Father and the Son do not get on. It might be thought that so cumbersome a notion is inconceivable before the rise of Romanticism but the Ophite Gnostics of the second century AD appear to have thought that God the Father was a jealous tyrant because he forbade Adam and Eve to eat from the Tree of Knowledge and that the serpent, who led the way to the Tree of Knowledge, was really Christ. This book explores the possibility of an underground `perennial heresy', linking the Ophites to Blake. The `alternative Trinity' is intermittently visible in Marlowe's Doctor Faustus and even in Milton's Paradise Lost. Blake's notorious detection of a pro-Satan anti-poem, latent in this `theologically patriarchal' epic is less capricious, better grounded historically and philosophically, than is commonly realised.
