Some Democrats and Republicans have expressed reservations about the sweeping climate change legislation being considered in the Senate. Hearings on the bill, aimed at limiting green house gas emissions, were held last week by California Senator Barbara Boxer, chair of the Environment and Public Works Committee, with Senator John Kerry, Energy Secretary Steven Chu, NRG Energy's CEO David Crane, and Senator John Warner testifying, among many others. Senators Boxer and Warner join Patt on the scope of the bill and its role in national security.

Tender Greens
Tender Greens is like your favorite rock band where you want to keep it a secret but also hope for tremendous success. And successful it is. Healthy and tasty salads and veggies, lean cuts of steak, chicken and tuna all served up in a 'fast food' style and price tag - but in a much better environment and quality. The flatiron angus steak with Yukon Gold potatoes top out my list. I also love to get the line caught ahi tuna with a baby spinach and goat cheese salad - quite tasty when I'm shooting for lighter fare. Makes for a nice and not-too-expensive dinner, and an excellent lunch as well.
