Fluoride is believed to be an effective, cost-effective, and safe way to reduce tooth decay.  Most people accept that it’s effective and cost-effective – as for it being safe well, that’s a different issue.

Here’s great news for everyone with a sweet tooth: The cake and cookies we’ll be eating in the relatively near future will look just as appetizing as usual and will also have the same tantalizing taste.  The great news is that it will also have an enzyme that reduces the amount of sugar absorbed into our bloodstreams.  In fact, it may even turn that sugar into a fiber that’s healthy for the gut.  

We’re shocked by the widespread hunger in faraway countries.  Unfortunately, same problem exists right here in America today and even in New York.  And yet, despite this problem, the amount of food that’s wasted is absolutely mind-boggling.

Billionaires are not necessarily perfect investors, but as a group most have a very high batting average.  That’s why there’s a certain amount of logic in studying what they buy and sell and to an extent following their lead.  This is true only up to a point because most of us are in very different circumstances, so what’s good for them is not necessarily good for us.  

We’ve been hearing a lot about the economy is getting weaker, but don’t try convincing anybody in the uranium business about that.  They think the industry is moving onto the fast track and from their perspective they’re probably right.  In addition to the usual demands some new technologies are emerging quickly, and to put it mildly these companies are really power hungry.  And more and more it’s looking like uranium will provide much of that needed power.

Who do you suppose is the best stock-picker in the world?  Arguably the answer is Warren Buffett, head of Berkshire Hathaway.  The investment publication Motley Fool takes this a step further and says he is widely considered one of the greatest investors ever.  And they have statistics that back their opinion.
