The nuclear waste will be shipped by roador by rail. And Mike, the NWMOspokesman, said that the public will beprotected during the transport ̶ 100%guaranteed.
Experts talk like that. And I believe Mike is99.99% accurate.
At the nuclear generating plant, the usedfuel bundles will be packed into solid stain-less steel boxes, 192 bundles per box,weighing 35 tonnes. These boxes, like Su-perman, are invincible except for . . . well,you know. There’s always that crack in thearmour.
My reading of the literature does raise oneteeny note of concern. The process is ab-solutely safe “during normal transportationand accident conditions”. NWMO’s ownwords.
Tests show that a box can be dropped 9metres onto steel-reinforced concrete with-out a dent.
A box can survive an 800-degree Celsius fur-nace . . . for 30 minutes.
And a box can sit in 200 metres of water. Noproblem.
But can a box be dropped onto rocks from abridge 50 metres high? Think: the Steel RiverBridge.
And can a box survive a Lac-Mégantic-typeinferno . . . for several days? Rail tanker carsnow ferry crude oil regularly from west toeast across our region. An accident is wait-ing to happen. And if a train with dirty crudeand a train with dirty nuclear waste shouldhappen to meet? It doesn’t bear thinkingabout . . .
The question is, should this stuff be shippedlong-distance at all for any reason?
You see, concerns about shipping are a redherring.
If you focus on concerns about shipping, youare forgetting the flaws in the concept ofdeep geological disposal . . .

Today, you crave a little style. Sensible shoes and practical clothes get the boot infavor of fashionable shoes and luxurious fabrics. Your passion and sense of romanceare at an all-time high, Aquarius, so you might as well take advantage of it for all it'sworth. You can expect to reap a tremendous payoff as a result of the extra efforts youhave been making with your appearance.
It isn't just royalty who gets to live happily ever after in fairy tales, Pisces. You havethis right as well. The conditions are ripe for attracting a special person into your life.There is no need to rely on "expert" advice for attracting a soul mate. It's your ownunique qualities that will beckon to the right one.
While you may feel the urge to put on a pair of boxing gloves and duke it out with yourfamily, Aries, try putting on an oven mitt instead. Cooking a meal or performing otherdomestic chores will help take your mind off your troubles with your family. If you aren'tthe domestic sort, exchange the mitt for some reading glasses and bury yourself inyour work. These tensions on the home front will pass quickly enough.
You have an urge to hop on a plane and leave the country, Taurus. It seems that this is theonly way to free yourself from the mountain of professional and social obligations that arepiling up. How can you ever hope to attend all of them, or even half? Have you consideredthat you may not need to? Send someone else in your stead, perhaps, or simply respond thatyou can't make it. You wouldn't be the first to say no. You are entitled to some downtime.
Finally, all of your efforts are being recognized, Gemini. That's not to say that you cannow sit back and rest on your laurels - quite the contrary! Now is the time to put youroriginal ideas to the test. But this time you have the backing of the higher-ups. Don'tbe nervous; just do what you had planned to do all along. If you work hard, you'relikely to see tremendous professional and financial rewards.
You have a wonderful, nurturing nature, Cancer. Those around you reap tremendousbenefit from your caring soul. Just as you are receptive to the needs of others, so tooshould you be aware of your own needs. You deserve to be on the receiving end ofyour own gentle touch. Don't hesitate to turn to others for help if you need to. Youmight be surprised how mere acquaintances pitch in to lend a hand.
In case you do any writing or artwork today, it will seem to come from a source outsideof yourself, Leo. Is this the divine muse you've heard others talk about? Possibly, orperhaps it's just your own natural talent shining through at last. Today is also auspi-cious for relationships, so be sure to take time for friends and loved ones both old andnew.
Put that book down and get out of the house, Virgo! You've been by yourself longenough; it's time to start interacting with other people. In addition to having heaps offun, you're likely to have some encounters that will prove beneficial in the long run.Group situations are great, but don't overlook the pleasures of an intimate one-on-one encounter.
Your hard efforts to improve your life are finally showing results, Libra. And this is justthe boost you've needed, as some people set your self-confidence a bit on edge. Justdon't let others destroy your vision of happiness. Continue to walk toward your goaland don't hesitate when small obstacles appear left and right.
The people you meet today could be of tremendous benefit to you later on, Scorpio.You have especially keen vision today, so make sure to take note of everything of in-terest that you observe. What you discover today, along with the people you meet,could combine in a powerful way at some future date. Your work also benefits fromyour attention to detail.
This is a time of new beginnings, Sagittarius. Whether you are aware of it or not, youare more than ready to take on some new challenges. You have allowed yourself tobecome complacent about your career. You have the ability to make a major step up,so why not do so? All that is required is a bit of effort on your part. Figure out whatyour ideal job would be and then pursue it. Or better yet, create it!
Romance is in the air today, Capricorn. It's the perfect time to make yourself look yourbest and invite that certain someone to dinner. Even if you're already happily married,why not take advantage of the auspicious mood and plan a special date with yourspouse? Even old married couples are entitled to romance now and then!

- STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI -
The Last Jedi is the best entry in the saga
since Empire Strikes Back. The story ex-
pands the mythos of the Star Wars uni-
verse and brilliantly subverts some
familiar tropes. The characters both old
and new are memorable and well devel-
oped, along with some excellent perform-
ances. The special effects are an amazing
mix of practical and digital and the action scenes are incredible
and intense. Nothing about it feels like a retread and it feels like
it’s offering some new things and even some old things but in a
fresh way. I know this review is brief, but I don’t want to give away
anything and ruin the experience for you. Go see it!

Jokes of the WeekI tried to type on my phone, “I’m a functional adult.”
My phone changed it to “fictional adult.”
I left it as is, as I feel that’s more accurate.

A duck is standing next to a busy road, cars zooming past
while he waits for a break in traffic.
A chicken walks up to him and says, "Don't do it, man. You'll
never hear the end of it."
