Huffington Post: Exxon Oil Spill Cleanup Continues In Arkansas

Posted: 01 Apr 2013 10:55 AM PDT


(Adds detail, background)
HOUSTON, April 1 (Reuters) - An Exxon Mobil Corp crude oil pipeline that ruptured and spewed thousands of barrels of oil into an Arkansas subdivision remained shut on Monday as cleanup efforts continued with no word on when it would be fixed and restarted.
The company had yet to excavate the area around the Pegasus pipeline breach, a critical step in assessing damage and determining how and why it ruptured.
Exxon spokesman Charles Engelmann declined to speculate on when excavation would start. He said the company's focus remains on cleanup.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Transportation Department's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), as well as state and local responders, were on the scene as well.
Exxon also did not yet have a specific figure of how much oil was released when the 20-inch line ruptured on Friday. The company said on Sunday that 12,000 barrels of oil and water had been recovered.
Engelmann said the ruptured section of the pipeline was installed in the late 1940s, but had no information on when it last underwent maintenance.
To prevent and track corrosion buildup, pipelines are periodically "pigged," or cleaned with a device that moves through the line to remove buildup of hydrocarbons, dirt, and other substances. Often the device is outfitted with sensors that point out areas of corrosion or wear and tear that need repair.
PHMSA said in a recent report that more than half of the nation's pipelines were built in the 1950s and 1960s in response to higher energy demand after World War II. Some, like Pegasus, were built earlier. (Reporting By Kristen Hays; Editing by Gerald E. McCormick and David Gregorio)

Huffington Post: Dead To Us: Four Characters Who Are Guilty For Crimes Against Rob Lowe

Posted: 01 Apr 2013 10:58 AM PDT

Forgivneness can only go so far, and those who push the boundaries of good taste must be humiliated publicly. We wish it didn't come to this, but we've held our silence for far too long about the following guilty parties.

evil wayne campbell

WAYNE CAMPBELL: The main antagonist of the dystopian horror film "Wayne's World," Wayne is an jobless teenager who lives with his parents and hosts an unwatchable cable access show. Out of the kindness of his heart, Rob Lowe tries to bring him out of squalor by giving him a real TV show. Rob Lowe seduces the beautiful rock star Cassandra, but in an act that defies all logic, she chooses to end up with the slovenly, irresponsible Wayne, rather than the handsome, successful, multi-lingual Rob Lowe. The only explanation is that Wayne is a sorcerer using his powers for evil.
