Designs for Newest U.S. Nuclear Plants Aim to Balance Safety and Costs
The first new nuclear reactor ordered in the U.S. in roughly three decades is beginning to take shape near Augusta, Ga. Southern Company and its partners have dug 27.5 meters down to reach bedrock and are now refilling the hole to provide a stable, anchored foundation for what is likely to be the first of a new generation of reactors in the U.S.: two new AP1000 models at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant that stand next to two older pressurized water reactors, which came online in the 1980s--the first of some 14 AP1000s and 20 new reactors in total that may be built in the U.S. in the next 15 years.

Top Five reasons to open a Tax?Free Savings Account (TFSA) in 2011
#5 ? It's an investment vehicle and a savings account all in one: the TFSA lets you buy all the things you can inside an RRSP, like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, but the money you make on them is tax?free when you make it, and when you withdraw it. And because it combines a savings account and a registered investment vehicle, there are rules. Learn the rules.

A Tax?Free Savings Account is an easy way of growing your money short?term and long?term
(NC)?Before the Tax?Free Savings Account (TFSA) came along, you had to choose between having the flexibility of a savings account, and the profitability of a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP). But with the TFSA, you can put in money, make earnings on that money tax free, and best of all, you can buy investments within a TFSA, just like you can with an RRSP. The big difference is that that the money you put into a TFSA can't be deducted from your taxable income like with an RRSP, but whether short term or long term, you can work the TFSA to your advantage.

Braving explosions and invisible hydrogen fires as well as bursts of radiation at least eight times higher than government hourly safety standards, a cohort of 50 or so workers has returned to the embattled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan. The workers represent the last line of defense in cooling the overheating reactors and spent fuel pools, such as reactor No. 3, which is still billowing white smoke or steam--a possible indication of a breach in the thick steel and concrete that contains the nuclear core or of water boiling off its spent fuel pool.
