The iris represents communication and messages. Named after the Greek goddess of the rainbow—who served as the divine messenger to the gods—the iris historically signifies the act of delivering a message, sending thoughts, or acting as a bridge of understanding.

“Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.”

I've previously posted stories about balcony solar in Germany and Utah. Now 28 US states and Washington DC have bills in the works to move DIY balcony solar out of the legal gray area it currently occupies and fully legalize it. You can track the bills' progress state by state here.

These are solar panels that can be plugged directly into regular household outlets in order to offset household electricity use with no utility approval, expensive installation, etc. Depending on the size of the panel and local energy prices, they can save up to $40-$50 a month and pay for themselves in as little as two years--and there are organizations like Bright Saver that work to provide free panels to low income families!
