thanks for the links Cindy. i’m surprised that explosion at that plant yesterday didn’t make any news at all aside from local.
I have a question though, adressing anyone who knows about this subject. What is with techtonic bombs? in my understanding its a bomb underground on a fault line. and it has to be big, like nuke sized.
can anyone shed some light on these? because i find it very difficult to picture some jihadi with a nuke, drilling and placing one yet it’s been mentioned over the years.
do you think this could really be pulled off under our noses? wouldn’t that be -very- suspicous activity?
total curiosity, cuz AQ have mentioned it but i’m wondering about the actual difficulty of pulling one of. someone drilling in the desert for hours with a case radiating a glow doesn’t seem real!
but techtonic has been mentioned before, a simulated quake. aren’t some quakes related to nuke tests in iran/russia etc?
-babbling but wondering

I have been watching this all day. The were asked at the News Conference just a moment ago, if they thought is was terrorist related and they said they have not been able to get close enough to access what the cause is.
Thanks for the ping!
Your excellent video posted here...
Well thank you for the info. It is also on HotWire!
I don’t want to get a swelled head.

EXPLOSION at UCLA.
Building 114, LAFD sending a large response.
David Geffen School of Medicine
All employees accounted for....
LA County Health Hazmat notified and responding.
There was an FBI / UCLA press conference just yesterday detailing the Animal Terrorists setting off firebombs....so naturally, the first thought is these are related. LAFD is cancelling a couple of the heavy rescue assets enroute.
Thanks nwctwx for your links:

Breaking News >> Flight Returns to Sea-Tac Airport After Someone Claims Bomb on Board
SEATAC, Wash. -- A Northwest Airlines flight returned to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on Wednesday after a man said there was a bomb on the plane.
Airport spokeswoman Terri Anne Betancourt said a passenger who had cleared a security checkpoint told an employee at the gate that a bomb was on the flight. The man was arrested, but it was not immediately clear why the flight was allowed to take off before being ordered back.
Betancourt said Northwest Airlines flight 980 was scheduled to fly to Memphis but returned to Sea-Tac just after 1 p.m. The Airbus A320 taxied to the West side of the runways and was met by police and fire department personnel. Betancourt said the man was ticketed to be on the flight but did not board and did not check any luggage. Investigators do not believe the threat was credible, she said.

Dallas —
DALLAS — A series of explosions at a gas facility (video: MyFoxDFW) sent flaming debris raining onto highways and buildings near downtown Wednesday and injured at least three people.
Authorities evacuated a half-mile area surrounding the Southwest Industrial Gases Inc. facility and shut down parts of nearby Interstates 30 and 35, snarling traffic for miles around one of the area’s busiest freeway interchanges.
Thanks Oorang.
U[pdates appreciated including the suspect’s name.
CAIRO -- Egypt stepped up security at Cairo's International Airport because of fears of possible terrorist attacks, a security source said on Wednesday. In light of Egyptians abroad returning to the country for vacation and the flow of Arab tourists, taking these precautionary measures was a must, Assistant for Interior Minister for Airport Security Major General Jamal Al-Jouhari told Middle East News Agency (MENA).
Recent attacks that hit Britain and Algeria were not conducted by individuals but by organizations with a set agenda, which urged the taking of such precautions, he added.

Stolen Device Contains Radioactive Material (Maryland)
Wednesday, July 25, 2007
An electronic gauge that contains small amounts of two radioactive elements was stolen from a construction site in Waldorf on Sunday night, causing Maryland authorities to issue a public alert yesterday.
The device, used to measure the density and moisture of such substances as soil and asphalt, contains less than a teaspoon each of cesium-137 and americium-241, officials at the Maryland Department of the Environment said. Both elements are radioactive, but officials said there is little cause for alarm. The tiny amounts taken would not be enough to fuel a radiation-spewing "dirty bomb."
"There would need to be quantities about 1,000 times that found in one of these devices . . . to be a true hazard," said Ray Manley, an official dealing with radiological devices at the Department of the Environment.
