A large explosion has occurred at the Carnival of Villepinte, located 18 kilometres outside of central Paris.
Early reports indicate that 20 are wounded including 3 people in critical condition.
The apparent cause was a wicker scarecrow that was to be burnt as part of the carnival. Foul play is not suspected at this time.

With the exception of a few mentions in the mainstream press when the incident originally occurred, Exxon is getting away with murder concerning their most recent snafu. I’m talking about the huge explosion at a gasoline refinery in Torrance, California that rained toxic ash on playgrounds and homes. Exxon assured their employees, and local citizens that “all was well,” though.
Witnesses have documented what was called a “huge explosion” at a transformer at the Indian Point nuclear power plant via a Twitter feed. The plant is located just north of New York City, and was large enough to cause the operator to shut down the impacted unit.
