  • I am surprised they were able to get people up on the 4th floor of 4 or that far into #3.

  • @nancy hav they got people into 4 or could it be the camera on the pump? also could it be dated?
    by elainekirk 6/11/2011 9:26:05 PM

  • @edano I couldnt work out whether that was wall,or ceiling ?
    by elainekirk 6/11/2011 9:27:15 PM

  • @elainekirk : must be wall, you can see the exhaust tower.
    by Edano 6/11/2011 9:27:51 PM

  • the south tower. so this is south wall.
    by Edano 6/11/2011 9:30:14 PM

  • that must be a blow out panel surely -if so at least we know something worked at fukushima

  • The photos don't seem to be dated except that they were modified on June 11. So likely when they made copies to put on the web it put the modified date. They didn't put any other info into the image data. They seem to be south end but sort of odd since the end wall is caved in. 4th floor is the refueling floor?

  • 'been a lurker since Reuters. A heartfelt thank you for your tireless efforts to understand the situation and share your expertise. Out of frustration for the lack of information being disseminated (out of sight out of mind), I have posted the links to many of the articles I see here on my FB page. I know it has reached at least of few folks who might not otherwise have known what is/has been transpiring these last three months, and that we are in this for the long haul. Back to lurking and learning....

  • @ty thank you for dropping in I do hope you call again and stay for a chat, ask questions even enjoy a cup of virtual coffee (and no I wont be using the kettle from the 4th floor :)0
    by elainekirk 6/11/2011 9:41:44 PM

  • @Ty Thanks! That is the idea, share information, figure things out, share them far and wide so more people know since the media is falling down on the job. This is going to not be over anytime soon. We are also all so lucky to have the web to document and communicate about what is going on. During Chernobyl there was no way to do this, all that is left is a few photos and eye witness stories.

  • @radioguy still working on the test site for the new design. Waiting on my hosting to fix the database install.

  • I've been slammed anyway, and yesterday was GF-birthday non-blogging obligatory. ;)
    by radioguy 6/11/2011 9:46:23 PM

  • @radioguy LOL. Copied your news update to the group page.
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 9:48:26 PM

  • @Hi all. Maybe people should take precaoutions but not panic? Anyone heard of the baby spike death - is this true? “Arnie Gundersen did an interview on CNN last week, recommending that Americans wash produce thoroughly and stop drinking milk and eating dairy products. He also suggested that any Americans wealthy enough to relocate to the southern hemisphere consider doing so, adding that Seattle residents were inhaling 10 hot particles per day in the weeks following the explosions”
    “Should we all be constructing fallout shelters and stockpiling food and water? Should we be shipping our children to South America until the crisis ends? I have no idea, but neither does anybody else, including the nuclear experts. They know that the crisis is more serious than Chernobyl. The world has never experienced a "china syndrome" event, and there is no way to calculate the potential outcome. One nuclear physicist who posts regularly at enenews.com suggests that another explosion is unlikely given the current status, but warns that reactor 4 is in danger of collapsing on itself from even a minor earthquake or aftershock. A collapse would negatively alter the scenario and could cause another major release of radioactive particles into the jet stream. Chronic low-level radiation produces a myriad of diseases in animals and humans, and even the IAEA recently admitted that no level of radiation is safe, as radiation is the prime cause of cancers. In any event, radiation exposure from a cross-country flight is in an entirely different category from a "hot particle" that would become an internal emitter once inhaled or ingested.”
    “Yesterday Counterpunch published an article by two doctors on the spike in infant deaths in the U.S. since the explosions at Fukushima, a spike which mimics infant deaths in Europe following the Chernobyl disaster. In North America the contamination comes largely in rainwater, which will, in turn, affect tap water, topsoil, vegetables, meat and dairy products over time.”
    “The most logical preventative measures Americans can and should take are these: Avoid going out in the rain and always carry an umbrella, avoid fresh dairy products, wash all produce, increase intake of potent antioxidants, such as CoQ10 and alpha lipoic acid, and buy a reverse osmosis water filtration system for your home or at least for your kitchen faucet. If you want to be prepared for a possible emergency down the road, also look into N95 face masks, which are widely available, HEPA air filters, and stockpile at least a few weeks of canned and dried food and filtered or spring water sufficient for your household.”

  • Added Smoss's plutonium inventories research to the MOX in Japan page on the site houseoffoust.com
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 9:59:25 PM

  • BTW, the Simplyinfo.org domain is supposed to be making all sub pages show up at www.simplyinfo.org/whateverpagename I need to check with the hosting company to figure out how to get it displaying right so it quits referring back to the houseoffoust.com domain.
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:00:51 PM

  • @nancy oo brilliant @all I was just looking at this sequence here and what are all those pipes at ground level? when the leaky trenches started filling up we were told they had been dug to channel electrics piping etc that was causing a trip hazard but the piping is/was still there makanaka.wordpress.com
    by elainekirk 6/11/2011 10:03:39 PM

  • @lillymunster smoss good work. :)
    by Mona 6/11/2011 10:03:56 PM

  • @nancy it does because I have had to get new comp and went simplyinfo to pick up links and noticed the url
    by elainekirk 6/11/2011 10:04:52 PM

  • @elainekirk that your getting houseoffoust or simplyinfo if you grab a unique page?
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:05:44 PM

  • Interviews of evacuated people. More don't want to go home. Some have changed shelters up to 9 times. www.yomiuri.co.jp
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:06:21 PM

  • i got simplyinfo @nancy I will go check ....yup simply all the way :)

  • Soil Samples From California Show Cesium 137 at Highest Level Since April Below is the latest test results from UCB. They show Cs137 levels at the highest levels since April and levels seem to be rising. I think it’s safe to conclude that with the latest findings in Seattle and the current steering winds , that the West Coast is in for a wild ride. The sad thing is that this affects us all.

  • Should have done this before... I added links to the 3 live cameras to the group web site. They are under "media resources" in the right hand list of links towards the bottom of the page. www.simplyinfo.org
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:13:29 PM

  • BTW, the photos inside #4 were taken by people who were on the floor, I found a gloved hand in the bottom left of this image. www.tepco.co.jp

    by lillymunster via Tepco.co.jp 6/11/2011 10:18:19 PM

  • @Majj That doesn't make any sense. The chart she posted shows the June levels are LOWER than previous readings.....
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:21:09 PM

  • I am really confused. This is the second web article claiming Berkeley is showing drastically increased readings. The other claimed tap water in San Francisco was off the charts via UC at Berkeley. When I went and looked at the Uni page it showed no such thing.
    This is the current testing of various things and all seem to show levels going DOWN not up.
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:24:17 PM

  • is there testing being carried out that is maybe university based separate to the official testing? if news that they were getting an increase got out and people then go looking for charts they find the official charts that show a decrease?
    by elainekirk 6/11/2011 10:32:02 PM

  • @nancy I need to download picasa i have been playing and think i found something are you around for a few mins while i do it then i can show you and you can say " ah elaine we found that" lol
    by elainekirk 6/11/2011 10:34:16 PM

  • @elainekirk yes still around for a bit
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:35:09 PM

  • @elainekirk the news article below links back to UC Berkeley's regular testing page. Berkeley's testing is all part of educating the students or instructor research etc. it isn't subcontracted by the EPA or anything.
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:36:50 PM

  • @lillymunster That is confusing. Berkeley keeps going down. There was a small uptick of Cs-137 in one sample after all those steamshows, but overall everything continues to diminish.
    by radioguy 6/11/2011 10:37:49 PM

  • Hi @ll. Here's a link to Bo's new RT interview video :
    Nuclear protests in Japan mark three months since disasters rt.com
    Dr. Robert Jacobs, Professor of nuclear history at Hiroshima Peace Institute, explains what risks the current situation at Fukushima-1 plant poses.
    “TEPCO and the government of Japan have known from the first few days of this incident that there were three full meltdowns that had occurred. This information was kept from the public,” he told RT. “The situation currently is, as you say, that there’s been a melt-through of the initial containment into the secondary containment. And at this point what we hope is that the melted core will not melt through that second containment.”

  • @radioguy Ok so I am not crazy. :-)
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:44:30 PM

  • Well at least in reference to this....
    by lillymunster 6/11/2011 10:44:40 PM

  • this blog has got the tsunami sequence and from the initial stage where water is just starting to come into the plant there is a vent connection that has failed that must be quake damage makanaka.wordpress.com
