...This strong start must be backed up by further action. The EPA should classify fly ash as a hazardous material, just as mercury, battery acid, and PCBs are. Doing so would require power generators to adhere to higher disposal standards and clean up existing dumping sites as well as increase public awareness of fly ash’s toxicity. Regulators should also ban disposal of fly ash in slurry form and require utilities to store dry fly ash in lined landfills to avoid leaching. The federal government should create financial incentives for makers of building materials to recycle more...

"Jaycee has strong feelings with this guy," her stepfather Carl Probyn - who saw Dugard...
Secular justice, nevertheless, can still have apocalyptic repercussions - in this case, for Olmert's party. Kadima leaders were torn between their loyalty to Olmert, who founded the party with Sharon in 2005, and their desire not to be tainted by the criminal prosecution.
