Lightyear One is a solar powered car, sort of The car, created by Dutch startup Lightyear, has a charging port to plug into a charger. But the solar panels can charge the Lightyear One's batteries at a rate of about 7.5 miles of charge every hour. That's slow compared to plugging it in. Still, if you parked it outside your office on a sunny day, it could soak up enough power to drive 60 miles, which is more than most people drive on a typical day.

Once you add in sunshine, a swaying palm or two and the chink of cocktail glasses, you have a recipe for pure pleasure. While man-made swimming pools have been around since 3000 BC, hotels didn’t catch on to their guest-attracting appeal until the early 20th century. 'The modern trend is for infinity pools where water flows over the side, giving the impression of the sea merging with the sky, writes Jeff Mills One of the pioneers was hotelier Antoine Sella, who carved a pool out of the basalt rock at his Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc on the French Riviera in 1914.

And while London is the worst-affected region, the problem is a national one; police recorded a total of 40,577 offenses involving a knife or sharp instrument last year -- 10,000 more than in 2011 -- while knife offenses have risen for five consecutive years. But as the problem gets worse, lawmakers and officials have tangled themselves in a patchwork of short-lived policies and hastily proposed approaches. Earlier this month, a regional police force was ridiculed for issuing knives with blunt edges to domestic violence victims, believing it could reduce the risk of attacks within the home. Scott Mann, a Conservative MP, suffered a similar fate in March when he called for every knife sold in the UK to be fitted with a GPS tracker.

Climate change adviser says PM's plan will fail unless it is dramatically stepped up By Thomas Moore, science correspondent The government's chief adviser on climate change has warned that the prime minister's plan to eliminate Britain's contribution to global warming will fail unless cuts to greenhouse gases are dramatically stepped up.

UK arms sales to Saudi Arabia unlawful, court rules Campaigners have won a landmark legal challenge against the government over its decision to continue to allow UK arms sales to Saudi Arabia. Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) argued that the decision to continue to license military equipment for export to the Gulf state, which is leading a coalition of forces in the Yemeni conflict, was unlawful. The group said export licences should not have been granted as there was a clear risk that the arms might be used in a serious violation of international humanitarian law.
