(location: Sao Paulo, Brazil)

Tam Airlines flight 3054 ended in a
firey crash.

After trying to land in a driving
rainstorm at the San Paulo airport--the

pilot apparently tried to take off
again.

The Airbus 320 cleared the airport
fence and a busy highway, but then
slammed

into a gas station and a cargo
terminal.

(Douglas Ferrari / Brazilian Assoc. of
Intensive Care)

(nats: Portuguese)

the situation was very bad .. this
man says.. and the firemen couldn't

enter the plane.

Temperatures inside were said to
reach one-thousand degrees ... leaving
no

chance for anyone to survive.

(nats: upset families)

As waiting relatives clamored for a
passenger list and more information ...

the safety of the runway ... which has
been called dangerously short .. is

once again being questioned . A day
earlier ... two planes slipped off the

runway in rainy weather. .. and in
1996 a plane went down after takeoff..

killing all 96 on board.

early this year, a federal court
banned large jets from using the

airport ... but an appeals court
overruled because of the economic
impact.

Pilots say the main runway is like
landing on an aircraft carrier ... and
is

especially risky since the airport is
surrounded by heavily populated

neighborhoods

The problem runway had also recently
been resurfaced ... but had not yet
been

grooved ... which would have provided
better braking traction in the rain.

The President of Brazil declared three
days of national mourning for the

nation's worst air disaster ... as TAM
airlines offered condolences to the

families.

japan's largest nuclear power plant is

the mayor of earthquake ravaged
kashiwaski city made the decision..
just hours

before it was revealed the radioactive
leak at the plant was bigger than first

reported.

Officials in northern japan now say

the amount of contaminated water leaked

into the Sea of Japan was 50 percent
more than first reported and they admit

400 barrels of nuclear waste tipped
over Monday during the deadly quake .

Adding to the urgency new data that
suggests a fault line may run under the

plant.

Despite dozens of problems at the
plantthe operator claims no radiation
has

been detected outside the facility.

But even if all the damage has been
disclosed the Japanese public, it
seems,

is getting tired of continuing problems
with the country s nuclear power

plants.

I think an earthquake-prone country
where nuclear accidents are likely to

cause major economic damage should
phase out nuclear power, says this
critic.

But Japan s 55 atomic energy stations
supply a third of the nation s powera

powerful reason why nuclear energy
likely won t be phased out any time
soon.

the country is also taking a hit in the
auto industry. automakers, including

toyota have been forced to stop
production because of damage at a major
parts

supplier.

Meanwhile work continues to get the
area back on its feet. Utility crews

are repairing lines.and trucks are
still supplying fresh water to those

have been suspended by the N-F-L for

What Vick's penalty could be from
