Another great article from Bahama Pundit. Click on the title to go to the article:  Government Statement on Energy Sends Right Signals - Bahama Pundit . If the PLP continue us on the path of renewable energy, then it would be a very impressive and badly needed step for the Bahamas. As a nation, it would give us something amazing to be truly proud of, independence on energy needs. That would be a massive step towards real independence.

The Bahamas Investor  is a great information source about all things Bahamian that would be relevant for investors. Worth a look.

The Nassau Guardian  article does a great assessment of their lackluster first 100 days.

Another great article from Bahama Pundit. The link is here:  The Very Strange World of Gambling in the Bahamas .

This is a truly remarkable Spanish film . It's a psychological trip and a half, so brace yourself. Isn't that the point of great cinema, to challenge our understanding of the world? Banderas isn't usually a brilliant actor, but he exceeds himself with this performance.  IMDB rates it a 7.6 and RT rated it an 81%. The film is by Pedro Almodovar . It's available for purchase here . Otherwise, it's playing on STARZ this month.

Another great article from Bahama Pundit. Click here . Thanks to Larry Smith for his excellent and well researched articles on all things Bahamian. Knowledgeable writers are few and far between in the Bahamas. We're a country that is generally light on facts and solid information and heavy on opinion and hearsay. Larry's writing is always informative and well researched.

Another great post from Bahama Pundit that quotes Henry Kissinger's excellent tome,  On China , which is all about the rise of China and explores its political, economic and cultural relations with the wider world at great length. The article is here:  Diplomatic Postings -- China . Kissinger wrote another insightful book on international relations titled  Diplomacy .
