@Nancy documentation of requests makes a difference, if its not documented it doesn't exist the more we request information the greater the impact when information is released and publicity as to why is wasn't released . . .

@wtm there was a mention of possibly being cranes but no more info or real confirmation I saw

maybe contact the dalai lama.

[quote]Tokyo Electric, better known as Tepco, has an interest in concluding that the quake did not cause the crisis since that could trigger a more costly review of power plants across Japan, said Sophia University's Nakano.

"It could very well be that Tepco is rushing to conclude that the tsunami is to blame to prevent further questions and give more momentum to the nuclear camp. It's not just Tepco, it's the whole nuclear industry, maybe business circles as a whole. It's highly political," he said.[/quote] Source: uk.reuters.com

GoJ should have removed TEPCO from this situation completely and allowed an indepenent task force to take over. Why should the fate of the world be left in the hands of a private company, who care only about their own interests, have demonstrated many times in the past that they cannot be trusted and have made pathetic progess in handling this global disaster? It is APPALLING beyond words!

If the GoJ won't take proper control and responsibility, the other nations of the world should act decisively, and quickly. Enough is enough - time for truth and action. It is OUR world!

So to reiterate Lee's gig: He is hired to "mend" bloggers contentious relationships with Washington -- by "harnessing" their "reach and passion" to "spread the administration's message". Think about what this might mean in terms of the administration's nuclear energy policies... just as an example....

@ms in la - Good point ms. From now on I shall refer to this person "Lee" as General Lee Astroturfer. Or General Lee for short.

@all, the Admin also now has the power to "Blacklist" all U.S. web sites that it feels are not to their liking !

I imported the historic TEPCO pressure and temperature CSV files, and put frozen headers above them. Still mostly Japanese if someone wants to edit them with something more meaningful. ;)

@wtm black list from what?

@you I really doubt that and saw nothing in that article that said they were able or going to do that.

www.rawstory.com DHS shutting down 1000's of websites without a court order....

So far most of those were not opinion sites but were copyright infringment. I really take issue at how the govt. resources are being used for something that is a civil matter between parties.

Multiple 10-Centimeter Holes in Reactor 2 Containment Vessel


So says the Mainichi Shinbun reporters who must be reading the report submitted by TEPCO on May 23 and released on May 24.

Multiple 10-centimeter holes in the Reactor 2 Containment Vessel, and one 7-centimeter hole in the Reactor 1 Containment Vessel.

Hiroaki Koide of Kyoto University was so right. The Containment Vessels' integrity has been long gone. TEPCO should have known all along, and all the experts, including Koide, must have known.

From Mainichi Shinbun Japanese (2:30AM JST 5/25/2011):

　東京電力が２４日公表した福島第１原発２、３号機で炉心溶融があったとする報告書の中で、１号機は原子炉圧力容器の外側にある格納容器に直径７センチ相当の穴、２号機では格納容器に直径１０センチ相当の複数の穴が開いている可能性が初めて示された。

In the report that TEPCO disclosed on May 24 regarding the core meltdown in the Reactors 2 and 3, the possibility of holes in the Containment Vessels of the Reactors 1 and 2 is mentioned for the first time. The Reactor 1 Containment Vessel may have a hole 7-centimeter in diameter, and the Reactor 2 Containment vessel may have multiple holes 10-centimeter in diameter.

According to the Mainichi article, TEPCO came to the conclusion of multiple 10-centimeter holes in the Reactor 2 Containment Vessel and one 7-centimeter hole in the Reactor 1 Containment Vessel from the analysis of the pressure data.

@Edano If there's a CSV of it available on the TEPPYsite, we can certainly incorporate it.

Where is he getting the plotted data? I imported these live from the TEPCO website. I need spreadsheet functions to locate the last row and use the values and we can have the current readings posted on the site.

Off to the station in fact. I'll be back on later.

our bojack's blog showed up in the Google search when i was trawling.. Two months later, truth is told at Fukushima

@Panser Thanks to everybody on this site for giving me news to summarize for my blog readers.

@bojack54 :) just happy to see you made the news feed!!
