This needs to be widely distrubited to the U. of Penn alumni. I have a few architect, lawyer, and financial friends who are alum; to whom I will be sending this info. This is a jaw-droppingly disturbing display of insensitivity. Just where would one acquire the official Palistinian scarf...the local discount mart?!

Having the president of the University of Pennsylvania, Amy Gutmann posing with one of these jerks...SMILING...adds and additional disturbing element. I guess they are just trying to backpeddle now and say that they are just like any other "scary" Halloween costume...BULLHOCKEY!!! It is very easy to discern between Frankenstein, Dracula and a person who is dressing as someone who murders, maims and create chaos for innocents. To say that this is distasteful is an understatement.

No Public Threat From TMI Shutdown (PA - 11/2/06)

CHARLES SCHILLINGER - The York Dispatch

Three Mile Island nuclear power plant's reactor unexpectedly shut down this afternoon in response to a turbine tripping.

Neil Sheehan, a spokesman for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, said inspectors on site at the facility, just south of Harrisburg, are monitoring the actions the company is taking.

"It appears the shutdown was uncomplicated and was handled appropriately," Sheehan said. "They're now troubleshooting what exactly took place; but, at first blush, it appears to be pretty straight forward."

There's been no equipment or operator problems identified and no cause for concern for the public, he said.

It's been six years since the reactor at Three Mile Island last shut down unexpectedly. If a nuclear power plant has three or more unplanned shutdowns in a year, it could lead to additional oversight at the plant by the federal agency, Sheehan said....

Two Oceana Men Suspected in Explosives Theft (MI - 11/2/06)

HART — Two 22-year-old Oceana County men are being investigated for the theft of several explosive charges from a seismic test site in Ferry Township in Oceana County, according to a report from the Michigan State Police.

On Wednesday, a concerned citizen called in a tip to the Oceana County Sheriff’s Office, and detectives contacted the Michigan State Police. Troopers and detectives contacted the two suspects, who eventually turned over the explosives.

They may face charges in the incident.

Troopers are making arrangements to return the charges to Bay Geophysical of Traverse City, the company that had placed the charges in a field next to an asparagus farm. The men are accused of unearthing the eight, 150-gram Pentolite booster charges, nine electric cap detonators, and 10 feet of wire. Each booster charge was the equivalent of a half-stick of dynamite.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives assisted troopers in their investigation and had offered a $5,000 reward.
