  • By the way, that post on the dam being blown up is the only report of the "event" and is in a sketchy looking online news site. It may be a "sovereign citizen" site attempting to intimidate people.

  • I followed the link from below to the Daily Nonpareil Online. Was there another posting? You would think such an event would generate lots of news coverage.

  • @lilly well I don't have to tell you, there are a couple of "sovereign citizens" scattered here or there who want people to think they are actually social leaders. If it really happened, local news stations would be all over it, and so would the national press. It would be domestic terrorism.

  • @bo There is a pile of websites that fit the same model as that one. They manage to get themselves in Google's news feeds somehow. They look just enough like a newspaper to confuse people until you dig a bit deeper.

  • Reuters Africa: FACTBOX-Details on Japan's 19 active nuclear reactors af.reuters.com By the end of September, seven of the 19 operating reactors are scheduled to be shut for maintenance. By the end of December, another five are due to shut. Japan's trade ministry said earlier this month that, without
    approval to restart reactors now down for maintenance, all of
    Japan's reactors could be shut by next April, adding more than
    $30 billion to the nation's energy costs.
    The story lists the location of nuclear power plants still in operation and the dates by which each is scheduled to be taken off-line for maintenance.

  • Higher radiation detected on fields than asphalt

    A government survey has found higher levels of radiation on fields and forests than on asphalt pavements in towns about 10 kilometers from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant.

    The Cabinet Office and the ministry of science monitored radiation for more than 10 days from June 13th at 400 locations in Namie and Tomioka towns, which fall within a 20-kilometer no-entry zone.

    The survey centered on JR Namie station, about 8 kilometers from the plant, and JR Tomioka station, about 10 kilometers from the plant. Measurements were made at one centimeter and one meter above the ground.

    The highest level in Tomioka was detected on an unpaved road 2 kilometers northwest of the station, where the reading at the one-centimeter point was 39.1 microsieverts per hour.

    In Namie Town, 25.4 microsieverts was detected at the one-centimeter point in a forest about one kilometer west of the station.

    Readings were generally lower -- around several microsieverts -- on roads and parking lots covered by asphalt and higher on fields and forests.

    Radioactive substances are believed to be easily washed away by rain on asphalt but adhere to soil and plants.

    The government plans to monitor radiation at more than 3,400 locations in no-entry zones and evacuation advisory zones by the end of August.
    Measurements will be taken at gardens of private homes and roof gutters, where radiation tends to be high, as well as roadside ditches.

    Suit filed to seek decommissioning of Hamaoka reactors

    Plaintiffs carrying banners calling for an end to nuclear power walk to the Shizuoka District Court in the city of Shizuoka on July 1, 2011, to file a lawsuit seeking the decommissioning of the reactors at the Hamaoka nuclear power plant in the prefecture. Located in a major active fault zone, Chubu Electric Power Co. suspended the plant's Nos. 3 to 5 reactors in May at the request of the central government in the wake of the nuclear crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant crippled by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami. The Nos. 1 and 2 reactors at the Hamaoka plant were deactivated in 2008 for decommissioning. (Kyodo) english.kyodonews.jp
