Japan's workers get rushed to the hospital after three men stepped into high levels of radiation contaminated water at the reactor site, which caused severe burns to their skin. Two of the three men were taken to the hospital. Tokyo governor states "that the tap water is safe to drink" and to prove how save it is he drank a glass of tap water for reporters. Skeptics doubted that the water could be safe in just a 24 hour period and suggested that the governor wants to down play the severity after a day of panic when there was a shortage of bottled water.

Air Traffic Controllers put two jets at risk in Washington, D.C. at the Reagan National Airport. The jets were minutes away from The White House. A very nerving experience for the pilots when air traffic controllers were not responding to give the clearing for landing. The pilots were forced to land on their own. Conflicting information if it was only one controller or two on duty and not sure if the controller(s) was sleeping or just off his post. The pilots also commented "that this was not the first time that there was no response from the tower." The air traffic controller (s) has been taken off his post until a complete investigation is made. New restrictions will be made that there has to be at least two air traffic controllers on duty during each shift.

Gadhafi sends up a warplane during a No-fly Zone and gets shot down by French fighter jets. The no-fly zone is costing a billion dollars shared with other allies, but the U.S. is still paying a large portion of that amount.
