OIL LEAK STOPPED?

The BP oil leak has stopped, according to the Washington Post:

BP said Thursday that it has stopped oil from leaking out of its blown-out well in the Gulf of Mexico. The gusher has been throttled for the first time since the April 20 blowout on the drilling rig Deepwater Horizon.

Engineers now have to determine whether the cap can hold. Officials have not yet determined whether this is a permanent fix.
