1. The Chernobyl disaster was a nuclear accident that occurred on 26 April 1986, at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine (then in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, part of the Soviet Union). It is considered the worst nuclear power plant accident in history and is the only level 7 event on the International Nuclear Event Scale. During a routine test, the plant’s safety systems were turned off to prevent any interruptions of power to the reactor. The reactor was supposed to be powered down to 25 percent of capacity, but this is when the problems began. The reactor’s power fell to less than one percent, and so the power had to be slowly increased to 25 percent. Just a few seconds after facility operators began the test, however, the power surged unexpectedly and the reactor’s emergency shutdown failed. What followed was a full-blown nuclear meltdown.  The reactor’s fuel elements ruptured and there was a violent explosion. The fuel rods melted after reaching a temperature over 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit. The graphite covering the reactor then ignited and burned for over a week, spewing huge amounts of radiation into the environment.  About 200,000 people had to be permanently relocated after the disaster. IAEA reported in 2005 that 56 deaths could be linked directly to the accident. Forty-seven of those were plant workers and nine were children who died of thyroid cancer. The report went on to estimate that up to 4,000 people may die from long-term diseases related to the accident. Those numbers are a subject of debate, however, as the Soviet Union did much to cover up the extent of the damage. The World Health Organization reported the actual number of deaths related to Chernobyl was about 9,000.

2. The Kyshtym disaster (INES Rating: 6) was a radiation contamination incident that occurred on 29 September 1957 in Mayak, a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in Russia (then a part of the Soviet Union). It measured as a Level 6 disaster on the International Nuclear Event Scale, making it the second most serious nuclear accident ever recorded (after the Chernobyl disaster). The event occurred in the town of Ozyorsk, a closed city in the USSR built around Mayak. Since Ozyorsk/Mayak (also known as Chelyabinsk-40 and Chelyabinsk-65) was not marked on maps, the disaster was named after Kyshtym, the nearest known town. Read the rest of this entry »

Winterizing your travel trailer will keep you safe and comfortable during cold weather and can be done in eight important steps: Prepare your winter essentials; empty the water tanks, water lines and holding tanks; dispense antifreeze into the water lines; find a suitable location for parking; attach plastic sheeting to the windows; use thick acrylic fleece curtains; cover air vents and exposed pipes; and cover the lower part of your trailer.

The winter season can be oppressive to travel truck and bothersome to its occupants. Although Jayco travel trailers are great for outdoor living, they are not immune to the harsh effects of cold weather. Cold weather can cause trouble for your automobile’s engine and water pipes and can even result in insulation problems. To avoid the hassles common in the winter season and to save your travel trailer, it is good to know how to prepare your automobile for extreme changes in the weather. Follow these simple steps to winterize your travel trailer and motor home.

Step 1: Prepare your winter essentials

Some things you should secure for car maintenance are antifreeze, a blow-out plug and an air compressor. Because travel trailers normally lack the appropriate insulation for extreme weather, you should also secure acrylic fleece curtains, plastic sheeting or vent covers, pipe jackets and plywood. Keep all these winter essentials on hand and readily available before the winter season kicks in. Read the rest of this entry »
