Ai Weiwei Reportedly Held by Police at Beijing Airport
Just after announcing that he planned a partial move to Berlin to avoid ongoing harassment in Beijing, artist and activist Ai Weiwei appears to have been detained at the Beijing airport by customs police while trying to fly to Hong Kong, according to reports filed on Twitter by his assistant and others. A tweet sent from his account announced that at about 7 am Beijing time he and one of his assistants were taken away by customs police at Beijing Capital Airport. Both of their cell phones were subsequently turned off and as of 11 am no one could reach them. Ai’s studio outside Beijing was guarded by police, the electricity was turned off, and no one was allowed entry or exit. His wife, Lu Qing, was reportedly being questioned by police, and eight of his assistants were taken also away for questioning, while police went through his computer.
Foreign journalists, including Jonathan Watts of the Guardian, who tried to visit the studio found a heavy police presence.

Euh, Humo isn't a neutral source at all. It's a magazine rather than a newspaper, and it's very ... left-minded, I read it often, solely for entertainment, not information.

Austrians do this all the time and then they´re buying energy from your nuclear powerplant :D
Ah, I found the text, He is warning for the dangers of to high pressure and the weak foundation of 2 Belgium nuclear power stations.
I also found a docu he made. This text is about that documentary, made in 2009 by director Alain de Halleux, a former nuclear engineer (!!). He is warning for the dangers in nuclear power stations in mostly France but also Belgium. He had interviews with (former) employes of nuclear power stations, and 1 thing was heard a lot, mistakes and problems are covered up or not mentioned in any report, and many more problems in favor of profit or keeping your job.
text part 1 (in Dutch)
text part 2 (in Dutch)
Hope I can find the English (or subtitled in English) video :) Someone must stream it, has to be.

No, we need tests for all powerplants. Belgian powerplants are very old, but due to political crisis of last 4 years now, this hasn't been top priority.

eastern powerplants have many tests, nobody believe us that we have modern powerplants.
But nobody is looking on old western powerplants, that is true.
do you know that proverb:
The biggest dark is usually under the lamp. :-)
