...factory, built in 1982, is part of the fuel supply line for an experimental fast-breeder nuclear power plant. It is where fissionable U-235 is combined with nitric acid to produce uranium dioxide, which is then combined at another plant with plutonium to produce the enriched uranium pellets used as breeder fuel. According to JCO, workers inexplicably mixed far more than the normal amount of uranium--35.2 lbs. instead of 5.2 lbs.--with the acid. Then they used stainless-steel buckets rather than pipes--again, inexplicably--to pour the liquefied uranium into the tank. The high concentration of uranium...

...Ovitz's real problem may have been his city?s fans. L.A. certainly had plenty going for it, namely television. With broadcast deals skyrocketing at least as fast as franchise fees, TV is the best source of the league?s long-term revenues, and Los Angeles is the nation?s second largest media market; Houston is the 11th. Both cities have shed teams in recent years ? the Oilers left Houston in 1996, and both the Rams (in 1995) and Raiders (in 1994) have found it too hard to make a go of it in L.A.
