Kennedy


I picked this up from an investment newsletter I get on a regular basis, although it had already made the news a few months back. Politics as usual....

Voters in Massachusetts have expressed overwhelming support for an energy-producing wind farm project that has been opposed by Sen. Ted Kennedy. The Cape Wind Project would erect 130 windmills in Nantucket Sound, off the coast of Massachusetts, and could provide three-fourths of the power needed by Cape Cod and nearby islands, which is now largely supplied by coal-fired plantsThe Cape Wind Project has been "frustrated at every turn by a handful of yachtsmen, Kennedy included," wrote columnist Froma Harrop, who is on the staff of the Providence Journal. A book by Peter Schweizer, "Do As I Say (Not As I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy," also disclosed Kennedy’s efforts to torpedo the wind farm. "The Cape Wind Project would be built in Nantucket Sound, about six miles off the coast from the Kennedy compound in Hyannis," Schweizer explained."The problem was not aesthetic; the Kennedys wouldn't be able to actually see the turbines from their home. Instead Robert Kennedy Jr., who had been beating the drum for alternative sources of energy for more than a decade, complained that the project would be built in one of the family's favorite sailing and yachting areas."

That's not the Kennedy castle on the left - it's an old European castle with a huge, protective moat around it. The Kennedys don't need a moat, they have something a lot better - friends in very high places.

Healthy Foods


According to many nutritionists, these are the top ten must-have foods, in no particular order: TOMATOES, BLUEBERRIES, OLIVE OIL, GARLIC, RED GRAPES, SPINACH, WHOLE GRAINS, TUNA, NUTS, and TEA. I have no clue how many servings of each you should have or at what time of day you should eat them or anything else. I looked and looked but could not find beer (nor pizza) on the list. I would go easy on the NUTS, the OLIVE OIL, the GARLIC, and the WHOLE GRAINS. For further information, look at other websites - for serving portions and recipes and so forth.
