How to render both sides of a surface?

I'm creating a globe with a transparent sea, so that you can see the other side.

Currently when I render it, the texture on the inside of the sphere is not displayed. It's just white.

How can i make it so that Maya renders both the inside and outside of the sphere?

Thanks.

Here is a Link for creating a double sided shader to apply to a material...

Flags are quite easy...

Create a Polygon Plane and Convert it to cloth using Maya Cloth...
Add a turbulance field...

The SamplerInfo Node is held within the General Utilities section of the Hypershade...

I'm really struggling to recreate the image on that site you linked me to.

When i middle mouse drag the samplerInfo to the blendColours node I can't get it to connect in any way. Same happens if I try to connect the blendColours node to the surfaceShader.

Help?
