- 2.6 quake at Wildwood Lake, Tennessee
- 2.6 quake at Searcy, Arkansas
- 3.0 quake at Monahans, Texas < not New Madrid but of interest
- + super quake swarm at OK/KS border area – probably from fracking there. USGS live data map.
That sinkhole in the parking lot in Miss. this weekend was discussed in comments here. Strange Sounds has a story for more info.
See “Enormous sinkhole swallows 15 cars in Meridian, Mississippi”
Also see “Fault Lines in the US: This Map Shows the Major Earthquake Hazard Areas Within the United States”
You can add this one too…
M4.2 – 16km NNW of Medford, Oklahoma
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us10003vkr#general_summary
I said quake swarm there as there’s a TON of quakes on that USGS map … all near each other on the OK-KANSAS border …. you have to zoom in to see them all as many are top of each other on the map.
Take a look at Meridian, Mississippi and what happened…http://www.infowars.com/mysterious-giant-sinkhole-in-mississippi-swallows-at-least-15-vehicles-photos/
That giant sinkhole in Meridian, Mississippi that not a sinkhole.
I saw that on the tv news! I wonder if it is related to area fracking taking some stability out of the ground somehow, or something else!
That a fault line

Is it connected to New Madrid topic? I’ll add it to the recent post if it is ….
I hope they’re right just a drain collapse
But where did all that dirt go before the collapse
That would be a lot of dirt somewhere else that would built up.
They had that big Texas rain storm but I lost track of which way that went off to. Last week.
I was wrong
That was a complete failure of those underground drainage pipes
All those big metal oval culvert drainage pipes collapse.
I don’t know what the Diameter of those culverts were or what the Gauge of steel they had ?
I say if they were round culverts they would have held up.
oh – someone tell them! Who would come up with an oval?? Don’t they know about the Roman arch and the Roman aquaduct?? No ovals there!
OT/ this page is of interest for Walter –
International Union of Crystallography
http://www.iucr.org/
The pipes that collapsed were 18 feet tall, 27 feet wide oval culvert drainage pipes.
I don’t know what the thicknesses gage of those galvanized steel culvert pipes was.

Underground nuclear test at the Tatum Salt Dome in Lamar County, Mississipp
Atomic Journeys: Mississippi segment
two atomic bombs were exploded in Mississippi. One nuclear test was called Salmon and it was detonated on October 22 1964 near Hattiesburg, Mississippi. The bomb had a yield of 5.3 kilotons. The second test was code named Sterling and it was detonated inside the cavity which had been left by the Salmon explosion. Sterling was detonated on December 3, 1966.

This is too complex for me
When their talking about Sendai Nuclear plant not far from Kagoshima Japan and Makurazaki.
M6.7 – 144km WSW of Makurazaki, Japan

Japan earthquake: Powerful earthquake strikes off Makurazaki
NOVEMBER 13, 2015
http://bnonews.com/news/index.php/news/id2462
I keep thinking that Sendai is near Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant.
There two places name Sendai in Japan
http://www.mapsofworld.com/japan/
Walter, the Makurazaki earthquake occured south of the Sendai nuclear power plant in southern Japan. There’s a Sendai in the Miyagi Prefecture, which is just southwest of Fukushima.
[sorry for delay … WordPress put a hold on yr comment!]
I think it’s not all that far. Fukushima on a map is on the Bay of Sendai so it gets confusing.
see also –
http://www.rockythedog.net/F/fuked.html
Also – others are reporting that’s a 7.0 quake….
Also there was one out to the east of the big one that was 5M and another 5er up north of the Bay of Sendai. (on the map from USGS now).
Walter, I just put the earthquakes’ coordinates into google earth for that M6.7, 31.06 N ; 128.87 E earthquake. The quake occured west of Makurazaki in the East China Sea and south of the Sendai nuclear facility. There’s a Sendai in the Miyagi preficture, just southwest of Fukushima.

Pennsylvania nuclear power plant in ‘Hot Shutdown’ over valve closure
Feb. 2015
Hot Shutdown
The plant inserted all control rods into the reactor core during the scram, according to the NRC.

thanks! I will pass it on!
Nuclear Scram
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scram
I sent that over to ENE News
Manhattan Projects Sites
The Manhattan Project Sites special resource study has been completed. The Department of the Interior has submitted a letter to Congress recommending the establishment of a Manhattan Project National Historical Park in Oak Ridge, Tennessee; Los Alamos, New Mexico; and Hanford, Washington. The Secretary recommends that the park be managed as a partnership between the National Park Service and the Department of Energy.
https://parkplanning.nps.gov/projectHome.cfm?projectID=14946
I saw that in the news ….
The article about the Pennsylvania nuke plant, provided by Walter, states in the first paragraph that the owner of the nuke plant DIDN’T know why the plant unexpectedly shut down. Then later in the article “The Norristown, Pennsylvania-based Times Herald reports the valve closed due to a leak in the nitrogen supply line, which is the gas used in the hydraulic system to operate the valve, citing U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission spokesman…” So, statements don’t agree. How can the owner not know how to run the reactor?
The article states “During an accident, the (main steam isolation valves) would be closed to prevent the release of radioactivity from the containment building, which houses the reactor Sheehan told The Times Herald in an email.” I wonder if radioactive steam was really released and they’re trying to feed us a believable excuse. A later article states that repairs were done and the reactor power was returning last Friday.
My comment is missing. Flyingcuttlefish, please read first before posting to make sure I am correct in my thinking. Thanks moderator.
Never mind Flyingcuttlefish. I guess there was another small delay.
yeah …. it wasn’t even in spam … just held up! WP acting nutty lately!
OK …
There was a earthquake at the sinkhole sometime around about 14:30 CST time or you could say 20:30 UTC time.

oh! And I see Japan has very large aftershocks going on and fairly big ones up in Alaska past few days.

Trying to find pictures of chemical separation facility for the X-10 Graphite reactor.
I have seen X-10 Graphite experimental reactor many time front and back of the reactor and the hot room chemical separation facility for extracted of Plutonium.
http://gizmodo.com/why-does-this-nuclear-reactor-have-a-national-park-sign-1742739849
This Reactor was cool by air not water
model shows the internal cross section of the X-10 reactor.
http://www.warbirdsandairshows.com/Historic%20Sites/oakridge2012.htm
The Clinton pile or X-10 Graphite Reactor was a experimental reactor a pilot plant for the larger plutonium-producing plant at Hanford, Washington.
X-10 is a massive graphite block, protected by several feet of concrete, containing hundreds of horizontal channels filled with uranium slugs surrounded by cooling air. New slugs would be pushed into the channels on the face of the pile, forcing irradiated ones at the rear to fall into an underwater bucket. The buckets of irradiated slugs would undergo radioactive decay for several weeks, then be moved by underground canal into the chemical separation facility where the plutonium would be extracted with remote control equipment.
https://www.osti.gov/opennet/manhattan-project-history/Events/1942-1944_pu/final_reactor_x-10.htm
The remote control equipment they had back then was Mechanical Hands with Remote Control.
I can’t say how many inches of glass they had in front of them when working with those mechanical hands.
