Interviewer: What happens is workers who do speak out go through hell, they’re attacked… Ann Harris, former Watts Bar nuclear plant employee: A Living Hell. I was asked to leave my church. Interviewer: …What? Harris: I was asked to leave my church because people that worked at TVA [Tennessee Valley Authority] — just being seen talking to me… could cost people their jobs. That’s the kind of harassment that you can expect.

STUART, Oct. 27 — Frank Mezzapelle has been endorsed by The Stuart News in his race for Stuart City Commission. A father/grandfather, community leader and former longtime president of Stuart Main Street (a 501 (c)3 not-for-profit orga­ni­za­tion ded­i­cated to improv­ing the appear­ance and eco­nomic sta­bil­ity of His­toric Down­town Stuart), Mezzapelle brings new meaning to the all-important transparency that today’s politicians atttempt to present to potential voters. Mezzapelle’s run is not the only race he has participated in. His impressive time in the 12th Annual Dare to Go Bare 5K Run” — a nude 5K — in Lutz, FL in 2004...

CNN’s first mention of concerns about the structural integrity of BP’s blown-out well occurred on the June 16 edition of the Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, during an interview with a member of the government’s Flow Rate Technical Group, Professor Steven Wereley. Blitzer described a conversation he had with an expert who said, “They’re still really concerned about the structural base of this whole operation.” “This thing could really explode,” added Blitzer, “And they’re sitting, what, on — on a billion potential barrels of oil.” Wereley responded, “I’ve heard concerns about the structural integrity of the well.” More precisely, the...

SNIP Two men spotted what they think could be oil from the BP disaster off a Pinellas County beach while returning home from a fishing trip Sunday morning. The men, Steve Weiss and David Mokotoff, said they were about four to five miles off Pass-a-Grille beach when they spotted what they believed was an oil sheen on the water. “We saw this ribbon of orange brown material,” Mokotoff said. “Steve initially thought it might be discharge from somebody’s boat, but then when we got closer it was so long, even though it wasn’t wide we thought about the oil spill...

SNIP “As we approached, we found an extensive oil slick that stretched about 20 nm (20 miles) along the southward flowing jet which merged with the northern front of the Loop Current. ... SNIP “The combination of models and satellite images, along with our shipboard observations and ROFFS daily analysis had helped us to identify and study this previously unidentified oil plume located off Florida’s southwest coast and heading toward the Tortugas.”

Interview Excerpts: We have an open hole that’s spewing I would guess somewhere between 100,000 – 150,000 barrels a day of oil which is why you now have over a hundred mile oil lake at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico that’s apparently four to five hundred feet deep. … We have an open hole with no casing in it and the only way we’ll shut it off is either let it complete which might take 30 years which could maybe not only poison the Gulf of Mexico but maybe the Atlantic Ocean or to put a nuclear device...

“Unfortunately, [the photos] don’t give what we saw justice,” said Chris Kauffman, referencing the photos he snapped while flying over the Florida Keys on May 22. “We saw a lot of oil in the water,” he said. The oil streamers stretched north to south for at least 10 miles “North-northwest of Marathon,” on the Gulf side. “The water appeared to be heading easterly but I can’t confirm that. Plus, the shape of the deposits seemed to indicate that,”...

Source: NOAA The section of the oil slick that has exited the Loop Current is drifting eastward towards Florida's west coast at 10 to 15 miles per day. By June 6, the oil spill boundary is predicted to be approximately 50 miles off the coast of Tampa Bay and Florida's west coast.

I don't usually make posts but had to get this information out to anyone living in the Keys or South Florida. ------------------------ On May 27, the first filament from the BP oil spill is seen approaching the Florida coast. The leading edge is approximately 20 miles west of the Dry Tortugas in the Florida Keys. Surface currents in the Loop Current travel between 1 and 3 miles per hour, or 25 to 75 miles a day.
