Air Raid Siren goes off in Pocatello, Idaho

Pocatello/Chubbuck--

At around 20:20 (mountain time) Monday, 25 August, 2007, an air raid siren went off from the Simplot area. It went off again 5 minutes later. There was an odd smell in the air shortly after. All tests of sirens are supposed to be announced, and this was not announced. No known reason as to why the siren went off as of yet, but any further info I shall post it.

All major factories and facilities are to be equipped with a siren in the case of an incident at the facility that can affect the nearby community.

Reason known: A man unfortunately caught fire and had severe burns. He later died from his injuries.

Simpsons

This is a great Simpsons movie!  Great fun, containing the same type of comedy as the series.  This is a must for all Simpsons fans!  Although some people may think that it being the same comedy as the series, it doesn't feel like a movie, but that is just opinion.  Go see it and tell yourself what you think!

Tornado in N.Y., Earthquake in L.A.

I heard today that there was a tornada in Brooklyn, N.Y. and an eathquake in L.A.  It seemed odd to me that I heard of the tornado for only 4 seconds on the news, and the earthquake from Jay Leno only.  It seems that the tornado did quite a bit of damage, and they are still cleaning up.  20 buildings were evacuated, and 32 families are without shelter.  The storm that the tornado was spawned from brought over 3 inched of rain in less than an hour.

The L.A. earthquake was a 4.6 magnitude earthquake.  There was no significant damage, but a bridge was closed temporarily, then reopened after sustaining "cosmetic damage".
