Iran Removes Seals at Nuclear Site
"Iran removed the final seals from equipment at a uranium conversion plant as U.N. inspectors watched Wednesday, paving the way for Tehran to fully open the facility despite European and U.S. calls for it to maintain the suspension of its nuclear program.

The move came as Europe and the United States were struggling to find leverage to stop Iran from forging ahead with its nuclear program, which Washington says secretly aims to develop nuclear weapons. Iran says its program is peaceful, intended only to produce electricity.

Board members of the U.N. nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, canceled a session tentatively planned for Wednesday in Vienna, Austria, signaling how difficult it was for delegates to agree on how to rebuke Iran."

3. I read that headline wrong
Thought they were removing seals from the water near the nuclear site so they didn't get hurt when the hot water ran out of the plant.

4. LOL! "Dateline Tehran..."
"Greenpeace activists cooperated with Iranian park rangers today to remove an endangered species of mutant elephant seals from their temporary home in an Iranian nuclear facility. Mohammed Al Zaravi, head of the Tehran chapter of Greenpeace, had this to say:

'I am delighted to see the government working with us on this one. Really, I'm very delighted. The reprisals can get incredibly ugly when we have to go it alone on these projects. I mean, I've been in this job for about two weeks. Do you have any idea what happened to the last guy who had this position? No? Neither do we. Allahu Akbar!'

"The elephant seals were forced to migrate to a ledge under the cooling tower of the reactor facility when their former habitat in the Tabriz chemical weapons factory was converted to an orphanage."
