Nuclear power plants shut down in Germany for testing.

Germany has temporarily shut down seven of its nuclear power plants while it reconsiders its nuclear strategy.

Chancellor Angela Merkel said that all reactors operational before 1980 would be taken offline, and safety checks carried out on the remaining plants.
The move comes after concerns about radiation leaks at a Japanese plant after last Friday's earthquake.

The EU has also reached agreement on "stress tests" of all European nuclear facilities.

I sincerely hope the "stress tests" are more real than the ones on the banks.
Europe, USA, Greece banks were proven to have undergone fake stress tests.
