People of the world .. THIS IS NOT GOOD NEWS ! A 60 year old nuclear reactor in Moscow russia is burning from underneath. Website post with the story links.. and also dozens of links you will need to monitor radiation / radioactive fallout on a international level: sincedutch.wordpress.com The "translation" has come across that a "fire in the basement" has broken out --- I think people should understand that this is not a normal underground BASEMENT --- that beneath a nuclear power plant is a HUGE series of tunnels, slabs of protective concrete etc.. And usually I would venture a guess that not too many flammable materials are stored BENEATH a reactor. This past week... this marks THREE nuclear power plants that have had major issues ... either large steam venting, earthquakes, shutdowns/major leaks, and now fires. one weeks time: Byron Illinois -- Chicago nuclear power plant venting steam during an "unusual event" ...... San Diego, California -- San Onofre nuclear power plant venting steam and SHUTTING DOWN due to an "unusual event" ....... and now a 60 year old reactor at the Experiment Physics complex in Moscow Russia burns from underneath. This is of course on TOP of the ongoing Japanese Fukushima reactor meltdown. (not counting the Virginia earthquake at the Cuckoo nuclear power plant) .. not counting the quakes and shutdowns at the Hanford Nuclear power plants in Washington state... or at the nuclear plant in Ontario which pumped radioactive water into the great <b>...</b>

Haggard became one of the leading figures of the Bakersfield country scene in the '60s. While his music remained hardcore country, he pushed the boundaries of the music quite far. Like his idol Bob Wills, his music was a melting pot that drew from all forms of traditional American music -- country, jazz, blues, and folk -- and in the process, developed a distinctive style of his own. As a performer, singer, and musician, he was one of the best, influencing countless other artists. Not coincidentally, he was the best singer/songwriter in country music since Hank Williams, writing a body of songs that became classics. Throughout his career, Haggard has been a champion of the working man, largely due to his rough and tumble history. Jimmy Rodgers: "His is the music of America. He sang the songs of the people he loved, of a young nation growing strong.
