Mushrooms are the latest addition to threats facing Japan’s food chain from radiation spewed by Tokyo Electric Power Co.’s Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear plant. Nameko mushrooms grown in the open air in Soma, a city about 40 kilometers (25 miles) north of the crippled plant, were found to contain nine times the legal limit of cesium, the local government said yesterday. Japan’s farm ministry asked growers in Fukushima prefecture to refrain from harvesting mushrooms off raw wood left outside, public broadcaster NHK said today. www.bloomberg.com

Mushrooms are going to be a problem. IIRC wild mushrooms in Germany are still a "don't eat" from Chernobyl
by lillymunster 8/13/2011 12:38:46 PM

@Majj @lillymunster yes I recall @edano saying they can't eat the mushrooms

another problem that has got very worse during Japan day is the scientist saying EM eats pollution and that low level radiation is harmless we need to debunk her

@ElaineKirk @SimplyInfo1 This woman is a leader of the group 'Bridge to Chernobyl' and does many lectures these days. The title reads...

@ElaineKirk @SimplyInfo1No way... This woman also says, life energy (like qi) can beat radiation... She is also positive about EM fungi.

Kyoto rejects ceremonial wood over radiation fears: Japan's former imperial capital of Kyoto apologised Saturday after rejecting wood from the tsunami-ravaged Pacific coast for a traditional bonfire festival over fears of radioactive contamination.
For centuries, Kyoto has marked the end of a Buddhist holiday season, during which ancestors' souls are believed to return home, by setting giant bonfires on mountains.
In modern times the event has been held every August 16, and Rikuzen Takata, a city in Japan's northeast devastated by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, last month offered Kyoto wood from pine trees uprooted by the waves. www.google.com

Professor's anger at lawmakers creates buzz on Internet: An exasperated University of Tokyo professor who launched an angry tirade at lawmakers over the Fukushima nuclear crisis has become a hero to many on the Internet.
Tatsuhiko Kodama, 58, who heads the Radioisotope Center at Todai, was called to provide expert testimony before the Lower House Health, Labor and Welfare Committee on July 27.
Facing a panel of lawmakers, Kodama said, "At a time when 70,000 people have left their homes and have no idea where to go, what is the Diet doing?" www.asahi.com

Radiation contamination leaves Fukushima schools unable to drain pool water : Many schools in Fukushima Prefecture are at a loss over what do to with their swimming pools, which can't be used or drained because the water is tainted with radioactive materials from the Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant, it has emerged. mdn.mainichi.jp

Culture matters as two countries — China and Japan — deal with disaster : IMAGINE two countries coping with the deadly consequences of a disaster caused or exacerbated by government failure. One is democratic, the other authoritarian. Now ask yourself: Which country will experience the most social unrest in the wake of disaster?
I recently returned from a research trip to Japan, which is coping with the radioactive fallout from a nuclear meltdown, and to China, which is cleaning up the wreckage from a high-speed rail accident. Even though I know both countries very well, I was still stunned by the political calm in democratic Japan and the bubbling foment in authoritarian China. seattletimes.nwsource.com

Challenge to the recovery of all workers will receive a declaration of war to me. @ Thoton: it eliminated the Fukushima Prefecture, the prefectural government to accept two million residents each.

County fundamental concept is to say that pollution does not hold widespread. Measures must be taken together with other neighboring prefectures. Discharge tube can be continued endlessly focusing on the private sector also decontamination. Fuel power plants into the retrieval in the meantime. How clear and raise a white flag at the beginning.

Enviroreporter did a little experiment with one of those in house hepa filters. It did seem to lower the radiation level in the building. www.enviroreporter.com

@lillymunster I use hetty vacuum and buy the hepa filter bags for it it may be an idea to see if people are using vacuums that they can buy hepa filter bags for as hoovering every day with one will help if those ac filters work www.numatic.co.uk

Forgive me if this has been posted already (can't see it) - I've just found this story in the London Times today (subscription) but it appeared earlier in the week in the WSJ:

And the winner is… “Mr. Cesium”...
In a widely circulated blooper here, the radioactive element personified was declared the winner of gifts from March 11 disaster-struck areas in a lottery organized by a local TV station.
In this instance, the prize was rice harvested in Iwate prefecture, one of the areas where fear is growing that farm produce and animals may have been affected by radiation, including cesium isotopes, from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant.
For 23 seconds on Thursday morning, a graphic that showed the supposed “Mr. Cesium” was the lucky recipient of “suspicious rice” and “contaminated rice” from an Iwate prefecture brand, topped off with a cartoon character made out of grains of rice, was broadcast on Tokai TV station’s “Peekan TV” show, now suspended pending an investigation.
The graphic immediately set off a firestorm of fury online, where the clip was widely circulated. Local media reports said the TV station received about 10,000 complaints. Iwate Prefecture fired off its own protest over the “slanderous” comments on Thursday as well.

@lillymunster , I saw the enviroreporter results posted here yesterday morning. The great aspect of the tests is that you can pick the best one based on the results they report.
