They restarted the pool cooling with a simple patch on the hole (the kind of thing DC crews on a ship do all the time)... then also tested a bypass to use the core cooling system if needed.

I'm sure that someone will spill a bucket of paint in Fukushima tomorrow and "beforeitsnews" or RT will figure out a way to pretend that it will result in a new disaster... so we'll all have more "breaking news" to talk about.
