LAUSANNE, Switzerland (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry cancelled plans to fly to Boston for a ceremony in honour of his late friend Edward Kennedy as talks on Iran's nuclear programme intensified in Switzerland, with two days left to a deadline.

Kerry's spokeswoman said on Sunday he regretted missing the dedication ceremony for an institute named after the U.S. senator, who was a mentor to him.

Officials close to the talks said the French and German foreign ministers, Laurent Fabius and Frank-Walter Steinmeier, were considering delaying a planned joint trip to Kazakhstan in order to focus on clearing the remaining hurdles to a deal.

IOW Kerry has agreed to language demanded by the mullahs allowing Iran to have a nuke within 18 months rather than the 36 months originally agreed to.

All attendees to the ceremony received a copy of this rare and highly coveted CD of the late senator's vocal offerings of some timeless classics:

Photobucket

Someone really ought to erect a statue on the Mall to Mary Jo for keeping this reprobate out of the White House. She really DID give her life for her country.

Paranormal investigators claim to have caught video evidence of an apparition that some say has haunted the Poucha Pond area of Martha's Vineyard for 45 years. Those who have seen it claim to catch sight of a ghostly image of a smiling "swimmer" and a 1967 Oldsmobile Delmont 88 floating in the back. The Kennedy family has refused comment.
