Laptop Battery Environmentalists and public officials, including three members of Congress and nine members of the State Legislature, presented a petition to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission yesterday, warning that the Indian Point nuclear plants, 35 miles north of Midtown Manhattan on the Hudson River, are vulnerable to terrorist attack and should be shut down until they can be made safe.

Thinkpad A group of those who signed the petition, including Andrew M. Cuomo, the former secretary of Housing and Urban Development, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the chief prosecuting attorney for Riverkeeper, an environmental group in Garrison, N.Y., gathered on the steps of New York's City Hall to stress their position.
A parallel concern in Washington is Iran's continued backing of Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite group that the administration and the Israeli government say is channeling aid to groups attacking Israeli civilians. Israel also warns that Iran's nuclear program will reach a "point of no return" next year, after which it will be able to make a bomb without any outside assistance.
Microsoft "If the American Airlines Flight 11 that flew down the Hudson River had, instead of hitting the twin towers in New York, banked left and hit the twin towers of Indian Point, we would have a much more dire situation than we're facing now," Mr. Kennedy said.

Laptop Computers Security has been high at the plants since Sept. 11, with National Guard troops standing guard and Coast Guard cutters running round- the-clock patrols on the Hudson River. Federal officials say that there is no need to close the plants and that safety improvements have been made since Sept. 11.
"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."
Laptop Computer But the petitioners, who included two members of the City Council and more than two dozen state and local officials from the area around the plants, said those measures were not enough. They said a terrorist attack could cause a disastrous release of radiation at Indian Point, whose two reactors are in the most densely populated area around any nuclear plant in the country. About 20 million people live within a 50-mile radius of the plants.
And then, of course, we have the Standalone Server product, which is called Acronis True Image Server for Windows or Linux and that will manage a single standalone server. What type of computers can we back up, because in a medium to a large sized, even some small sized businesses, who knows what kind of computers they have They may have laptops, they may have desktops, they may just have anything and everything
Desktop Computer Jim Steets, a spokesman for Entergy, the company that owns the plant, said that closing it would accomplish nothing, and that it would be far harder for a jet to hit the plants than a large target like the World Trade Center. He added that even a direct hit would not necessarily cause a meltdown that would result in a wide release of radiation.
Notebooks "The evacuation plan does consider a worst-case scenario, and even then you would have 8 to 10 hours to evacuate," Mr. Steets said.
Lenovo The evacuation plan, which is reviewed every two years by the federal government and is based on the removal of people within a 10-mile radius of the plants, has come under fire in recent weeks, with many local officials saying publicly that they do not believe it is practical.
Hard Drive The Nuclear Regulatory Commission, in reviewing safety measures after the Sept. 11 attack, is trying to determine what would happen if a large aircraft were to hit a nuclear plant like Indian Point, said Neil Sheehan, a spokesman for the agency.
Travelstar But Mr. Kennedy and others said yesterday that federal regulators had never tested the security of the spent fuel at the plant, which contains far more radioactive material than the reactors themselves but is not protected by a containment structure, as the reactors are.
Gateway Those concerns have been echoed at plants elsewhere in the country in recent weeks. On Nov. 1, the House Energy and Commerce Committee voted to require the N.R.C. to review the potential for attacks on nuclear plants.
Laptop Parts Several speakers at City Hall yesterday emphasized that although safety was a concern at all of the nation's nuclear plants, it made sense to shut down Indian Point because of its proximity to the New York metropolitan area and because use of the plants is less necessary during the winter, when energy is not as likely to be in short supply.
