SDG&E to build, buy 100 megawatts of solar power (12)
In a move that could dramatically increase the amount of green power generated locally, state regulators have approved a proposal allowing San Diego Gas & Electric to build its own solar farms here and buy power from others who build them. This has the potential to change the landscape around San Diego as big rooftops, parking lots and large fields sprout solar panels to feed the grid. SDG&E would spend up to $100 million putting 26 megawatts photovoltaic cells on land and buildings it owns in San Diego and purchase three times as much power from local solar farms under a proposal approved by state regulators Thursday. "This will help get more solar built and directly...
Dealers tune in to ITV bid talk (11)
After declaring that its first well (Ernest) drilled in the southern part of the North Falkland Basin has been declared dry, Rockhopper Exploration was sold down to 265p before rallying sharply to close only 2.5p cheaper at 301.25p.

Desire Petroleum, another Falkland Islands-focused oil explorer, fell 6p to 94.75p. Now valued north of £1bn and easily the largest mining group listed on AIM, European Goldfields jumped...
Fresh Fruit Juices at Aladdin Mediterranean (11)
The day I went, they were out of carrot but did offer papaya-melon and strawberry-peach in addition to the other flavors. My (plain) strawberry juice was smooth and sweet, a wonderful match for the nutty tones of the snapper's cashew sauce and the eggplant's pesto. The juice's uneven consistency, as well as the many strawberry seeds contained therein, suggested it emerged within the past two days from a small blender and not two months ago from a commercial-sized processing tank. Although I heartily enjoyed my juice, it is still difficult to swallow spending such a disproportionate amount on a drink at a cheap BYOB place. Depending upon how you look at it, perhaps that is exa...
