INTERVIEW: Dr. Helen Caldicott - Nobel Peace Prize nominee, founder of Physicians for Social Responsibility, pediatrician, veteran anti-nuclear activist and author, discusses her latest book, "Crisis Without End." NUMNUTZ OF THE WEEK: When your nuclear reactor has cracks in its core, just say you expected them and now expect some more and everyone steps away from their panic - oy! PLUS: Did the explosion near the Parchin military facility near Tehran in Iran have anything to do with their nuclear program? Typhoon Phanfone triggers alarms at Fukushima Units 1 a 3 with new water leaks; Congress wakes up and joins Native American tribe in opposing Ontario's proposed nuclear waste dump less than a mile from the shores of Lake Huron; Judge upholds 20-year ban on new uranium mines near Grand Canyon; DOE misses deadline to start pumping nuke waste from leaking Hanford storage tank, so Washington state gives 'em another 18 months! And given the radiation rates among reindeer in Norway, Rudolph won't be the only one that's glowing.
