Katrina cast: Where are they now?

Unlike earthquakes, hurricanes are not supposed to produce aftershocks - or afterwinds, as the case may be. But ever since Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast two years ago, its afterwinds intermittently have blown the eccentricities of the region, and especially of New Orleans, through the public consciousness of the whole nation. In the weeks after Katrina, Americans were introduced to a fool's menagerie of outsized and often outrageous characters. SF GATE

Mr. Naugle, a six-term mayor in this city that draws legions of gay tourists and residents, went on to tell a local newspaper that he preferred the word “homosexual” to “gay” because he believed many gay people were “unhappy.” Soon after, he criticized a plan to house a private gay book collection in a public library because it contained pornography. Continued... NYT

"The Mayor insults everyone who lives or works, or visits Fort Lauderdale. Not just the gay population, or straight working middle class, or homeless and poor, or any other minority that just happens to be different than him that he's decided to target. His intentions are not of working to better Fort Lauderdale, but just his next position in life after this term ends. Along the way he could very well cost everyone who lives in the area a great deal." Jeff Black

Can wind energy be cheaper than regular power?

...in some cases alternatives are already cheap enough to compete with conventional power. In Ireland, for instance, wind power can be supported with minimal subsidies, said Jason Bak, CEO of Finavera Renewables, which specializes in wind-powered utilities and wave power equipment. The wind blows hard on the island and its on the edge of Europe's power grid. Recent studies sponsored by the government show that wind power in many instances will be cheaper than electricity from natural gas plants. CNET

The Northeast Blackout - August 14, 2003

The Northeast Blackout of 2003 was a massive power outage that occurred throughout parts of the Northeastern and Midwestern United States, and Ontario, Canada on Thursday, August 14, 2003. Although not affecting as many people as the later 2003 Italy blackout, it was the largest blackout in North American history. It affected an estimated 10 million people in the province of Ontario (about one-third of the population of Canada), and 40 million people in eight U.S. states (about one-seventh of the population of the U.S.). Outage-related financial losses were estimated at $6 billion USD ($6.8 billion CDN). WIKIPEDIA
