One Family’s Story of Change
Not so long ago, a typical Saturday at the Taylor household consisted of video games, fast food dinner and banana splits for dessert. Evenings were spent cuddled up in front of a family DVD, munching on popcorn and guzzling soda. “I guess I figured we were really spending lots of quality time together,” says Michelle, whose sons are nine and eleven. “I never realized that I was actually damaging my children’s health.” A recent trip to the pediatrician woke Michelle up to the damage the junk food and sedentary activities were causing.

Now we could be boring like most people and set unrealistic goals that sound nice to say when someone asks what your New Year’s resolution is, but why be boring?

Wylfa B, Anglesey Nuclear Build Prospects
Wylfa B is the name given to the putative new nuclear power station at Wylfa on Anglesey in the UK.
The present Wylfa Magnox Power Station is set to close in 2010, followed by defuelling up to about 2012.
There will then follow a long period of site clean-up and demolition as part of the planned decommissioning process.
Whether Wylfa B goes ahead depends very much on the long term energy strategy adopted by the UK government.
