Statement about the Solar Tax Credits from Brad Collins, Executive Director of the American Solar Energy Society
The solar industry is at a crossroads right now. We urge U.S. House and Senate leaders to come together to extend the Solar Tax Credits without delay. With an economy on the brink, extending the Solar Tax Credits will send a powerful message to markets, investors, and consumers that solar energy will play a lead role in generating the green-collar jobs our economy needs to get back on track. Failure to reach a bipartisan compromise would put tens of thousands of jobs and billions in investment at risk. With Congress' bipartisan support, the Solar Tax Credits will help Americans combat skyrocketing energy costs, strengthen the economy, and tackle climate change.

The Reserve Chapel Hill nc Landscape Design Tips
Trees and Shrubs for the Four Seasons. Let's discuss some specific examples of planting trees and shrubs to create year-round interest in a yard.
While floral color reigns triumphant at the beginning of the growing season, at its end it is foliage color that is king. I have collected a number of resources on the best fall foliage trees, including the must-have maples, and the best shrubs and vines for fall color, but here I would like to draw your attention to two plants in particular that are useful -- and overlooked -- in extending the fall foliage season.
I love the exquisite harvest colors of autumn and feel the fall foliage season is too short-lived. To get a jump on the fall foliage display, plant sumac shrubs, which usher in the autumn season well before the maples. Sumac's fall foliage will help bridge the gap between the last rose of sharon bloom and the first hint of color on your maples.
But don't stop there! The best color of the maples will be gone part way through October, so you also need a fall foliage specimen that takes the torch from the maples and carries it a bit closer to the winter season. Oak trees will do just that, albeit usually with less flare than the incomparable maple trees. David Beaulieu http://landscaping.about.com/cs/designexamples1/a/home_landscape.htm
