3 #1's in England, first time since Madonna. 21 stands for her age. Adele 19 is the first album. Heavyset girl with a heavyset talent.

Jawdropping!!!Video: The most insane tsunami footage yet Share posted at 5:01 pm on March 28, 2011 by Allahpundit printer-friendly Via Gizmodo, I thought we’d seen the worst a few weeks ago, but no. The clip at the last link looked like a flood turning into rapids transforming into a roaring river. This looks more like what it actually was — an honest-to-goodness ocean spilling into a city and swallowing it whole. By the end of the clip, if not for that lone building on the right edge of the frame, you wouldn’t know civilization had been there. Today’s deep-breath news from the Fukushima plant is that plutonium’s been found in the soil. Time to panic? Not just yet: Japanese officials say three of the five samples they found were deposited years ago by minute fallout from Chinese and North Korean nuclear tests. The other two probably come from reactor three, which uses plutonium-based “mox” fuel; that’s a big deal if the reactor pops open and there’s a major plutonium release, but right now the levels in the soil are low enough to pose no threat to human health. The main problem right now isn’t in the soil or even inside the reactors. It’s in the tunnels underneath the reactors, where the the water is so ridiculously radioactive that workers can’t get in there to reconnect power lines and restart the reactors’ cooling systems. They’re going to have to pump the water out first — assuming they can figure out a way to do it without contaminating everything in the vicinity. I’m sure they’ll think of something soon. This crisis can’t last more than a few … years, right? hotair.com New Powerful Tsunami Video As It Happens: New Look at Japan’s Tsunami Disaster March 28, 2011 By Maggie No comments yet When you look at the first minute or two of this video you might say, ‘well, I’ve already seen this,’ but probably not all of it. It begins with the wave of vehicles we have seen recently pouring over the seawall (were people in those cars?) but this video stays on the scene longer and shows the absolute destruction. In the end, nothing stands but the large, multi-storied building you see to the right of the screen. The second video shows homes and ships being swept away. maggiesnotebook.com Japan Tsunami 2011 See this video at link below…. maggiesnotebook.com
