2 minor injuries in French nuclear plant incident

PARIS (AP) ? A steam blast at France's oldest nuclear plant Wednesday left two workers with slight finger burns and revived calls to reduce this country's heavy reliance on nuclear power.

Nuclear safety authorities said there was no threat of radioactive leaks and that the incident at the Fessenheim plant near the German border was minor. It touched a nerve, however, because anti-nuclear activists have long urged the closure of the plant, which was built in the 1970s and is located in a seismic zone. Those calls have mounted since the earthquake and tsunami disaster at Japan's Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant last year.

Utility giant Electricite de France, which operates the plant, denied initial reports of a fire. EDF said in a statement that the incident occurred during maintenance when oxygenated water escaped and prompted a burst of steam. It said all nine people in the facility at the time were examined.

Plant director Thierry Rosso said two employees suffered slight burns on their index fingers from the blast of vapor. He said it triggered automatic calls to the emergency services, but insisted "there is no environmental impact." He said the water involved was not contaminated.

"The next stage is to look at what happened" to cause the blast, he said in a conference call with reporters.

France relies on nuclear energy more than any other nation, getting about ? of its electricity from atomic reactors scattered around the country. French President Francois Hollande pledged during his election campaign to close Fessenheim, which operates two 900-watt pressurized water reactors, by 2017.

Workers were preparing a chemical solution for treating waste water in a building that is separate from its two reactors when the incident occurred, said Thierry Charles, deputy director of the Institute for Radioactive Protection and Nuclear Security. He said there was an unexpected chemical reaction that resulted in the steam blast.

"It has nothing to do with radioactivity," he said, noting that oxygenated water is widely used for industrial purposes. He said at this stage he sees "no risks" resulting from the incident.

The regional government in the neighboring German region of Baden-Wuerttemberg, which has been led by the anti-nuclear Greens since last year, has called for France to shut down Fessenheim quickly.

Noel Mamere, a parliament member from the environmental party and a vocal critic of nuclear energy, told BFM television that the latest incident is a reminder that "we must leave nuclear energy progressively" and turn to other, less risky sources of energy.

The environment minister, Delphine Batho, said there was no immediate safety risk but ordered EDF and nuclear safety authorities to study what happened and submit a report to the government.

Charlotte Mijeon of anti-nuclear group "Sortir du nucleaire," or "Abandon Nuclear Energy," noted other incidents over recent years at Fessenheim and said what happened Wednesday should "push the government to act now and not wait until 2017" to close it down.

Gore, Green Energy Absent from DNC

5 Sep 2012, 11:01 AM PDT post a comment

Many prominent Democrats have skipped the DNC this year, but why Gore in particular? On reason may be that his presence may remind voters of the green energy failures of the President?s administration. Solyndra, Fisker, Beacon, A 123, Ener1 and other belly-up DOE investments have become anathema to the American public.?

Even aside from Gore, the White House is downplaying the environmental extremism of its current Cabinet. The President did not ask Energy Secretary Steven Chu to talk about energy policy at the convention; instead, he assigned Interior Secretary Ken Salazar that task. Clad?in a white cowboy hat, Salazar?talked up oil and gas drilling as though Obama were a bullish advocate. He asserted the President will bring America energy independence by using an ?all of the above? energy strategy.

What Mr. Salazar did not point out is that record drilling in North Dakota, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Louisiana all came from states with Republican Governors who simply ignored Al Gore and Steven Chu and let free enterprise prevail.?

'For Sale by Owner' Marketing Tips ? Coldwell Banker

The For Sale by Owner (FSBO) method of selling a home has remained at pretty much the same level of popularity. According to the NAR?s most recent survey, just 10% of sales came directly from a previous owner. Since I bet that includes a bunch of transactions between family members, it looks as if the population of local For Sale by Owner signs continues to be in something of a slump (down from the cyclical peak of 18% back in 1997).

Still, if you are a local homeowner who wants to buck the trend and head down the FSBO route, you will need to do more than just stick a For Sale by Owner sign in the lawn. Of key importance is the newspaper and Internet advertising you will need to create. Here are some ?how to? elements that can help in that effort:

1. Research approaches

Before you begin writing your For Sale by Owner ad for the local market, read how the real estate brokerages are currently going about it. Check out ads on Realtors? websites as well as on sites that other For Sale by Owner sellers use. It will give you an idea of the approaches others have found to be effective.

2. Write to-the-point copy

Your ad copy should be comprehensive enough to ensure potential local buyers have enough information to qualify your offering ? but without being overly verbose. It may be tempting to gush about your home, but what you write needs to come across as professional. Amateurish or overly personal ad copy can create a less than businesslike aura, fostering distrust among potential buyers.

3. Take care with photos

Any real estate agent will tell you that photographs can be a real deal-breaker when it comes to convincing buyers to visit your home. Ensure all of your bases are covered, and take your time to produce photos that catch your home at its best. If the afternoon light isn?t flattering for a particular view, be willing to try it later on or in the morning. If you are unsure of your own photographic talent, this is a good place to spend some marketing dollars to employ a professional ? one with a top-notch DSLR camera.

Last year, the national median For Sale by Owner home sold for $150,000, while the median for agent-marketed homes was $215,000. That is one indication of why it?s a good idea to explore all options before committing to a FSBO campaign. If you would like to meet with us to go over your options, we are happy to offer complimentary consultations to local For Sale by Owner homeowners. Call us anytime!

Interest in rock climbing reaching new heights - entertainment news uk

Rock climbing is no longer the best kept secret of the sports world. During the past few years, this high-intensity sport has seen a significant surge in popularity?and not just among avid sports enthusiasts and adventurers.

Local rock climbing facilities report that more women, children, and older adults are taking up the sport.

In fact, rock climbing has gotten so much attention that it?s in consideration to become an official Olympic sport. The final decision by the International Olympic Committee will be announced in 2013 in Buenos Aries. If included, climbers will compete in the 2020 Olympic games.

?There has definitely been an increase in interest and a change in demographics in recent years,? said Lillian Chao-Quinlan, president of Sportrock Climbing Centers. ?We have a 60 percent 40 percent split of men to women who come in to climb, which is a big change from several years ago. There?s been a huge increase in the number of women rock climbing.?

According to the 2010 Outdoor Recreation Participation Report by The Outdoor Foundation, a nonprofit group, approximately 6.1 million Americans or 2.7 percent of the population 6 years or older participated in some type of rock climbing, whether it be bouldering, sport climbing, indoor climbing, traditional climbing or mountaineering.

The study said in 2009 climbing attracted the fifth highest number of new participants, ranking behind whitewater and sea kayaking, non-traditional or off-road triathlons.

Sportrock and the Claude Moore Recreation Center ? both in Sterling ? offer rock climbing courses for beginners to experts. Before climbing, participants get hooked up to a rope, which is used for belaying ? a climbing term describing the rope and pulley system that secures climbers as they ascend. Both Sterling facilities offer courses that are rope-belayed and others that use automatic belays.

?We have five runs, which are different courses, two of which have automatic belays,? said Mitchell Frid, assistant manager of Claude Moore. ?The two hardest runs that we have are rope-belayed. We pride ourselves on having courses for novices, especially for smaller kids. We can help them a bit with rope-belaying.?

Sportrock has approximately 20,000-square-feet of climbing walls, and each wall has levels of varying difficulty. The walls are changed every six to eight weeks to keep climbers interested and challenged.

?It?s like a new chess game each time you come in,? said Chao-Quinlan. ?Rock climbing is not just a physical activity, but it also engages you mentally. You have to figure out the problem of the wall so that you don?t get stuck.?

Many local gyms also offer rock climbing walls for its members, including Lifetime Fitness.

And while rock climbing is a great workout, many people like the social appeal as well. Sportrock draws a big crowd of young professionals, and Claude Moore is a favorite spot for families. Rock climbing has become a trendy activity for bachelor and bachelorette parties as well as children?s birthday parties.

?During the summer and weekends, the rock climbing wall is a very popular feature, especially among kids aged 6-12,? said Frid. ?They really enjoy it.?

At Claude Moore children must be at least 6 years old to climb on the walls.

Another draw to rock climbing is its inexpensive price. Claude Moore rock climbing costs range from $3.75 to $8.25 depending on age and Loudoun County residents? status. Most participants at Sportrock get a membership, which ranges from $65 to $85 per month depending on term length. But Sportrock also allows non-members to pay a walk-up fee of $18 to climb for a single day.

Chao-Quinlan reiterates that rock climbing is a sport that people of all skill levels can enjoy.

?It?s become a lot more popular because it?s more accessible,? said Chao-Quinlan. ?There is no stereotype you have to be to try rock climbing. It?s a fun activity and it?s a great sport.?

Daytrading, Stock Trading, Investing and Forex Trading ...

When you're in some place where you need to earn more money, and you are prepared for a real challenge, you might find that having a quick look at daytrading will be ideal for you. There are several folks out there who've revealed that daytrading is the career that is best for them and one of the most vital things that you will need to realise is you can do it right from your house! Take a second to think about what is required to be a great day trader . The very first thing you will need for a job in day-trading is the time for it. We're not saying you need to be in a position to give 40 hours every week to it, or maybe 20. Do remember, though , the indisputable fact that when talking of being successful in anything, day-trading definitely included, you must be able to think up a schedule and to stay with it for an extended period.

And you do not mind stumping up for this kick. Please consider : You don't earn cash in this game by emulating what everybody else thinks, by hopping on the next hot indicator that other traders are talking about, or by making an attempt to prove how smart you are to the market by being a ?high frequency? retail trader. ) You like the concept of trading a fashion which has the highest possible cost ( commissions, spread paid, needed set up and technology, investment in ?learning how? ) and lowest possible margins ( money ? costs ). Troublesome luck for them, don't make the same blunder. ) At one time traders HAD to pay a lot to trade because all commissions were high.

This made short timescale trading not very much better than a bet at a casino. So ask ? how is it feasible the jobless rate would DROP when we had a loss of twenty thousand roles? How could we lose roles, and also reduce our rate of unemployment by 0.3%? The jobless rate that you're most likely conversant with does not include all classes of the unwaged. And the figures have also been ?seasonally adjusted?, which artificially skews the info. If you visit the Office of Work Stats internet site and really research the industrial info yourself, you can discover that, while the ?seasonally adjusted? jobless rate is 9.7%, the ?not seasonally altered rate? is really 10.6%, in comparison to the ?not seasonally altered rate? in December 2009 of 9.7%. So did the rate of unemployment actually drop 0.3%? Or has the information been manipulated to color a better picture than fact? But the unemployment nonsense don?t end there. When it is slowing down and you spot that there are not as many customers, that's when you wish to sell.

A good rough guide is to focus on momentum. Don?t hold out thinking you can squeeze higher profits out of it or you might finish up losing cash at the end. Stock option day-trading isn?t right for everybody so do not feel pushed into it.
