I have some really good Monday morning news! Yamashita has been fired! :-)
Ob_Li found multiple stories of it yesterday. They will be appointing a five member panel to deal with the public health issues in Fukushima.
Radiation protection personnel and report outside the radiation protection advisor Dr. Shunichi Yamashita, Fukushima Prefecture, Fukushima prefectural assembly
Posted 8 Mon 28th 2011
Jiro Fukushima prefectural assembly member信市Ishihara (d) on Twitter itself, but was clearly in charge and out of the radiation protection radiation protection advisor Dr. Shunichi Yamashita, Fukushima Prefecture. Mr. Yamashita is out of the radiation protection, he said that is to be appointed as an advisor to the new five.
Ishihara prefectural assembly, we are actively on the radiation protection activities to create a group called Children first, so far, 20 mSv and review the standards, support for voluntary evacuees, Mr. Shunichi Yamashita, a radiation protection advisor, Fukushima dismissal has been asked to radiation protection and the establishment of the centralized system.

@dean I don't think they have put and laws against comingling food to get to a "safe" radiation level.

Yamashita being demoted is good rice is not
by elainekirk 8/29/2011 12:05:33 PM

@elainekirk I think they fired him and he is completely out.
by lillymunster 8/29/2011 12:07:55 PM

Elaine were you still here when PB posted this?
www.independent.co.ukby lillymunster 8/29/2011 12:11:44 PM

I wasnt sure so I asked OB_Li
@ElaineKirk it seems like true that Yamashita no longer the advisor of radiation safety. It's a big step for now.@ElaineKirk He is released from the radiation safety advisory but still in the position of health admin research group. #akatsubu @ElaineKirk Yes he's caused massive damage we might not be able to recover. Hope other GOOD prof. will start the clean up instead of him.
by elainekirk 8/29/2011 12:13:08 PM

@lillymunster yes I simplyinfo tweted it I hope having said that I didn't read it all is thre aa problem?
by elainekirk 8/29/2011 12:14:07 PM

@elainekirk So he is no longer in charge and they shuffled him back to his lab. Still good news, he had no business running this.
by lillymunster 8/29/2011 12:14:52 PM

@elainekirk nope no problem.
by lillymunster 8/29/2011 12:15:11 PM

@lillymunster fantstic news now would a this is wrong this is right bullet sheet be a good idea simple stright forward then OB_Li or rock could translate and maybe Pelukiss illustrate?
by elainekirk 8/29/2011 12:16:36 PM

@lilly.. I'm sure yamashita could get work at the cleanup site with the other workers

Fukushima evacuees' response to NodaResidents of Iitate Village near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant have asked newly elected Democratic Party head Yoshihiko Noda to step up the rebuilding of their community.
Almost all of the villagers had to evacuate after the accident at the nuclear plant.
A 43-year-old woman who fled to Fukushima city says she doesn't want Noda to forget his responsibility of restoring the lives of the evacuees.
She said she wants him to visit Fukushima to learn what the people there truly need, and to work to pave the way for reconstruction.
A 56-year-old woman said she wants the new government to decontaminate her village so she can return home. But she said she has little hope the new leadership will make a difference, as Japan's prime ministers change all the time.

US to keep an eye on Noda's prowess for time beingThe US government will likely keep a close watch on Yoshihiko Noda to determine his political skills.
A US State Department official has told NHK that the United States will continue to work with the new prime minister to tackle a wide range of issues, include helping the restoration process in regions devastated by the March disaster.
The fierce tug of war involving the ruling and opposition parties over Kan's resignation in recent months has prompted concern among US officials that Japanese politics may be becoming dysfunctional.
The White House is scheduling brief talks between US President Barack Obama and Noda when he visits New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly meeting in late September.
In China, state-run Central Television provided live coverage of Monday's leadership election. The broadcaster called Noda "a dark horse," as he is less known in China than some of the other contenders.
The online version of the Communist Party's official newspaper, the People's Daily, says Noda is conservative and takes a hard-line position towards China. It cites his remarks regarding Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo that honors Japan's top war criminals and the Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea claimed by China.
An NHK correspondent says China will closely monitor Noda's foreign policy, as bilateral relations have become strained over the islands and other issues.
Russia's state-run television has reported that newly elected Democratic Party leader Yoshihiko Noda will face a tougher task as prime minister.
It says Noda will have to shoulder a heavy burden, including addressing the ongoing nuclear reactor accidents, ballooning government debt and a deteriorating economy.
Referring to Noda as the sixth prime minister in the past five years, the Russian TV station said Japan's political scene will remain unstable because there are few politicians who can control all the factions.

@Elaine, rockhopper mentioned doing that. Sounds like a good idea.

@you lilly what do you make of that the tweet comment
by elainekirk 8/29/2011 12:31:10 PM

@elainekirk It would be good to know what authorities told them to ignore the radiation soil testing. The more things happen the more I think citizen testing is the only unbiased method to know what is contaminated.
by lillymunster 8/29/2011 12:38:20 PM

@es they are relatively stable, there are 2 or 3 temperatures rising, but these gauges show chaotic behaviour all the time. the rest is stable and well over 100° C

the chaotic sensors are: RPV Supporting Skirt Top, RPV Bottom Head and CRD Housing Top. these sensors are in the lower vessel part, so they maybe molten, although they could be the most interesting ones for us. :(

@es yes :) you're right, but look at the chaotic history of this sensor. i think it is damaged. but i keep an eye on that, it can still give a tendency or pattern, damaged or not.

@Ian : i made a zoom in in #3 pressure graph, so we can compare it with the predictive meltdown models. the raw data is here: www.tepco.co.jp my graphs use this raw data, they are drawn automatically 2 times a day. www.houseoffoust.com

btw: i saved every day's raw data, so they cannot manipulate it.
by Edano 8/29/2011 1:17:28 PM

the raw pressure data is a bit complicated, because it swaps between absolute and relative (to atmosphere) pressure, and they are in MPa. so there is a lot of recalculation to be done.
by Edano 8/29/2011 1:19:55 PM

in the csv files pressure is column 4,5,6,7.
