Remus Rudd and Political Spin
This is the story of Remus Rudd – Kevin (07) Rudd’s great great Uncle. Now I am not sure if it is true. But it is perhaps one of the finest examples of political spin. No matter what side of the political fence you’re on, THIS is FUNNY and VERY telling! It just all depends on how you look at the same things. The story goes…
Judy Rudd an amateur genealogy researcher in south east Queensland, was doing some personal work on her own family tree.
She discovered that ex-Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s great-great uncle, Remus Rudd, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Melbourne in 1889. Both Judy and Kevin Rudd share this common ancestor.
So Judy recently e-mailed ex-Prime Minister Rudd for information about their great-great uncle, Remus Rudd.
Believe it or not, Kevin Rudd’s staff sent back the following biographical sketch for her genealogy research:
Interesting reading – and a lesson in political spin. I think a few drug companies use this technique.

Interesting new Krill product from BioCeuticals
BioCeuticals has launched two new Antarctic krill oil formulas that look rather good and are quite well priced.
What is also good, is that on initial investigations the way they are sourcing the product appears ecologically sound!
Sourced from Aker BioMarine, which meets environmental sustainability standards set by the WWF.
Importantly, it is not a farmed fish.
Krill oil contains a high quantity of omega-3 fatty acids bound to phospholipids. Research shows krill oil produces similar effects to fish oil but with only 63% of the EPA / DHA content of fish oil, suggesting greater absorption.
