Cape Wind

The go ahead has been give by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar to build the US's first offshore wind farm! It seems there is some backlash about ruining the view of the Cape, but is that more important than the earth? I don't know a whole lot about wind power, but it would seem to be less harmful that coal mining or drilling for oil. There is some footprint to the windmills and it could be disruptive to the animals that live there, but they would probably adapt. I have a whole lot of questions about wind power and the affects of the windmills. On the surface though it seems to be a favorable alternative to fossil fuels.

Brass Bowl After a Lil' Cleaning

I cleaned the bowl with some lemons and salt like C. Ferrel's brother suggested. Not quite as clean as I wanted, but the best I could do with a baby in a walker at my feet and cooking dinner at the same time!
