Strong Earthquake Very Close to Virginia Nuclear Power Plant ... Main Power Out, Venting Steam
The Lake Anna reactor was ranked the 7th most at risk from earthquakes of any reactor by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Indeed, today's quake was 5.9, and nuclear expert Bob Alvarez says that the Lake Anna plant was only built to withstand a 5.9 to 6.1 quake.
And earthquake sensors were previously removed around the reactor due to budget cuts.
As I've previously pointed out, Japan's nuclear meltdown, the economic meltdown, and the Gulf oil meltdown all happened for the same reason: cutting safety measures to make an extra buck.

Mamie and Eva who, you say? Gummer is the look-alike daughter of Meryl Streep. Her dad is Donald J. Gummer (Donald who?), a sculptor, and Amurri is the offspring of Susan Sarandon and director Franco Amurri.

Ava's dad, Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora, has mostly confined his movie experiences to soundtracks. So the 13-year-old, who also has done some modeling, gets her acting chops from Locklear. Locklear had her big film break at the comparatively ripe old age of 23 with the 1984 movie "Firestarter" -- in which Drew Barrymore (granddaughter, by the way, of legendary actor John Barrymore) stirred up flames.
Coincidentally, Locklear starred in a 2008 TV movie with a title similar to Ava's new film -- "Flirting With Forty" -- though the actress, who turns 50 next month, was beyond flirting with the big 4-0 at that point.

Anne Hathaway: 'Dark Knight's' Catwoman confident and in love
Cover of Anne Hathaway"I find the passing of time very liberating," she told The Associated Press. The actress, who turns 29 in November, added, "I feel more confident every, well not every single day, but most days I feel better than I did the day before, and that's a good thing."Ms. Hathaway, on a day off from filming in Pittsburgh, hit the red carpet in New York on Monday night, sparkling in a gold and black Alexander McQueen dress, to premiere her latest romantic drama, "One Day." The actress who will be Catwoman said she feels a sense of freedom about approaching 30.
Ms. Hathaway had been involved with Italian businessman Raffaello Follieri, who was convicted of wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy in 2008. They split that same year.
Of that relationship, Ms. Hathaway told Marie Claire, "People deal with horrible things all the time. Downstairs in this pub, someone has a parent who is battling cancer. Someone has just lost their job. Life ... is really painful sometimes."

François-Xavier Roth – the man who can do everything, and is doing it in next Tuesday's prom
Ten years ago he won the Donatella Flick competition which led to a series of engagements with the LSO. Then he seemed to drop out of the picture so far as UK work was concerned, with only occasional appearances on London platforms. But in the meantime he was building a high-profile career back in France with a band of his own creation called Les Siècles. And what made Les Siècles special was that their concerts would start on period instruments, playing Rameau, Couperin whatever, and end on contemporary ones playing Boulez and Birtwistle.
London riots spread beyond capital: day three roundup
A cleanup operation is under way across London after the third and worst night of violence resulted in widespread damage across the capital, with unrest spreading to cities around the UK.
Buildings were set ablaze, businesses ransacked; overstretched officers were pelted with petrol bombs, bricks and other makeshift missiles. Normally peaceful streets were laid waste as rioting flashed around the city. A man died after being shot in Croydon, south London.
At times the police appeared overwhelmed by the sheer number of incidents – which began with serious rioting in Hackney and spread to the south London neighborurhoods of Peckham, Lewisham, Colliers Wood and Croydon, where a 100-year-old furniture store was torched.
There was trouble too in the relatively well-off west London suburb of Ealing, and even sporadic outbreaks of violence in Notting Hill, where diners a Michelin-starred restaurant barricaded themselves in the wine cellar to avoid an attack.
Disturbances continued apace throughout the night and spread outside London for the first time with riots reported in Birmingham, Bristol andLiverpool.
In north London, Guardian video journalist John Domokos found Turkish shopkeepers defending their premises against attack.

Patriots acquired WR Chad Ochocinco in a deal
Image via WikipediaUSA TODAY spoke to a person with direct knowledge of the situation who confirms the loquacious wideout has been dealt to the Patriots; NFL Network adds he'll get a three-year extension.The only thing serial tweeter Ochocinco has offered this evening is: "God is so Good"
Ochocinco and Patriots coach Bill Belichick might seem like an odd couple, but they've expressed overwhelming mutual respect in prior matchups and when Belichick has coached him at Pro Bowls. NFL Films has caught their light-hearted on-field interactions.
One of Ochocinco's first orders of business could be prying loose TE Aaron Hernandez's No. 85 jersey. His second order of business could be quickly adapting to Belichick's desire that his players adopt a vanilla stance with reporters.
Reporter Ian Rapoport mentioned the 49ers and Raiders as potential suitors, noting that the Patriots had spent considerable time reworking the wide receiver's contract. New England acquired Ochocinco in a move.
The Chad Ochocinco era is over in Cincinnati -- and it couldn't have come at a better time. Regardless of what you think about the colorful 33-year-old receiver,
