As BP executives repeat amorphous phrases like “all legitimate claims” and “make things right”, Gulf Coast residents are becoming increasingly suspicious. First obtained by NewOrleans.com through an “insider”, a 582-page report details how BP would handle an oil disaster similar to the one we are now experiencing. From BP’s Regional Oil Spill Response Plan for the Gulf of Mexico, updated on June 30, 2009:: www.scribd.com As oil from the massive Deepwater Horizon slick in the Gulf of Mexico laps at Louisiana’s shores and tar balls wash up on beaches in the Florida Keys, saltwater-dependent power plants on the Gulf Coast prepare for the worst. “We’ve been monitoring the spill since it began,” says Suzanne Grant, a spokesperson for Progress Energy Florida, which runs four power plants on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Three of the plants pump in water from the Gulf to cool their turbines. “The good news is that forecast models continue to indicate it’s highly unlikely the slick will reach our coastal plants, but we’re putting an action plan in place just in case,” Grant says. … news.discovery.com

www.TransAlchemy.com Today, Nintendo and Disney announced, at the E3 conference, the new “Epic Mickey” videogame. The game involves rebuilding a “wasteland” post-apocalyptic version of Disney World. What’s interesting, though, is that some scientists warn that the state of Florida in the United States, in which Disney World is located, is at major risk for massive environmental destruction, due to the Deepwater Horizon oil disaster – possibly necessitating evacuation from the “wasteland”. During Nintendo’s E3 2010 press conference, Epic Mickey was demoed on the show floor, showing off some of the game’s features. One thing that immediately jumped out at us was how good the game looked, especially being a Wii game. At first glance Epic Mickey almost looks like your standard 3D plat former, but the player will be able to use paint or thinner to modify the environment to their liking. You could even thin the floor out to make a hole, and drop down below. Alternatively, you can paint the level to restore it. Apparently these choices will have an effect on the game later on down the line, but it remains to be seen what they could be. Epic Mickey makes its debut later this year exclusively for Nintendo Wii. Includes music by KMFDM. Read the lyrics http
