Japan reports Error and Higher Emissions

bump

bump

Some things to keep in

Some things to keep in perspective:

The beginning of the event saw estimates of 10,000 TBq per hour.

This revised estimate is only from April 5 until around the 20th

The end of the article states that current emissions are back down to 1 TBq per hour.

But, yeah, not so good.

LOL enenews doom

LOL enenews doom fail:

CORRECTED by EX-SKF: “The previous estimate was 1 terabequerel per hour, not per day. So, per day would be 24 terabequerels.”

New doom is only ~6 times higher.

“Correction: 1

“Correction: 1 terabecqerel per hour, not by day.”

The ongoing radiation leakage from Fukushima #1 is: 6.4 terabecquerels/hour (which is 154 terabecquerels per day. (One terabyte is 1 trillion)

“since March 23, that’s already additional 4,160 terabequerels.”

I have a few questions I would like answered.

[1] Is this true an accurate translation? I don't read Japanese.

[2] Is THIS, FINALLY, the honest-to-God truth?

[3] What, if any, impact does this information have on estimates of North American total depositions, accumulations, exposures / dosages, etc.?

[4] Compared to Chernobyl, what is Fukushima NOW, and what is it likely to be in the long run?

[5] What is our Government planning to DO about this -- dfining "this" as, "Japan's continued total f---ing charlie-foxtrot 'handling', if it can be called that, of this debacle and its complete f---ing lack of credibility in ANY regard, not to mention its absolute uselessness and the enemy-of-humanity-level ass-covering machinations of the TEPCO higher-ups?

...Yes, I'd really, teally, REALLY like some answers, now, before we ALL start dropping like flies. And a moment is coming when I am going to be prepared to DEMAND them, folks, however I must. And I don't think I'll be alone, on that day. And I WON'T simply do it by writing a letter to the editor, or to my Congressman, or to the Director of the EPA r Homeland Security or whatever. I am getting ANGRY.

ANYONE RIGHT THERE WITH ME?

Japan Error:Calling Any Military Service in Western States!

Rick,

I'm completely with you as is every concerned person visiting here. My husband thinks the true levels are being broken to the public slowly and, having worked with the occasional radioactive waste from good old Lawrence Livermore Lab and working in another type of lab, military exposure too he knows what it FEELS like and he pointed out that when almost every 3rd to 5th person we encountered over the last week in March was experiencing a similar dry cough with dry nose and throat that 'something was UP' 'way UP!' Ozone will do the same thing along with lack of moisture in the atmosphere too, but this was kind of more persistent than normal Ozone exposure. Oh, and an elderly friend up in Modoc county is rather angry that high levels of radiation are in the 'underground ocean' that they get well water from up there AND families are being told locally who live above 7000 feet to either keep their children indoors or if they do let them out, to warn then not to eat the snow!

Also, anybody reading this thread: Please, if you are or know of any Military Service people STATIONED in the Western States: California, Texas, Washington,Nevada,Utah,Idaho,Arizona,Colorado,New Mexico,Oklahoma PLEASE REPLY HERE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE BEEN SUDDENLY RECEIVING ANY NEW THINGS SUCH AS A PIN ON DOSIMETER (SIMILAR TO WHAT DENTISTS, HYGIENISTS AND RADIOLOGISTS WEAR) RECOMMENDED SHOTS OR COMBINATION OF PILLS OR SUPPLEMENTS AND IF ANY MORE FREQUENT MEDICAL TESTING IS OCCURRING UNRELATED TO UPCOMING ASSIGNMENTS OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTRY OR STATE YOU ARE STATIONED IN. ALSO, PLEASE SHARE IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY BRIEFINGS CONCERNING ELEVATED RADIATION.

I also know medical and dental staff wear personal pin on dosimeters if they work with radiation/x-rays on a daily basis:Early on with the Fukushima releases Hawaii medical and dental staffs were noting elevated readings on their dosimeters so maybe a coordinated effort of data from medical and dental staff would be a great way to obtain broader sample data?

-Off my menu: All Seafoods because the oceans really are a military and industrial sewer! Yes, I will miss Anchovies on my pizza, fishsticks, red snapper, tuna (even 'chicken of the sea' is no longer 'worthy,'crab, fake crab (made with Pollock, an ocean fish), clam chowder, Nori Seaweed,Caviar etc... See: http://pstuph.wordpress.com/2011/04/01/can-ocean-currents-transport-radi...

Reading this gave me chills:

"Also, anybody reading this thread: Please, if you are or know of any Military Service people STATIONED in the Western States: California, Texas, Washington,Nevada,Utah,Idaho,Arizona,Colorado,New Mexico,Oklahoma PLEASE REPLY HERE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE BEEN SUDDENLY RECEIVING ANY NEW THINGS SUCH AS A PIN ON DOSIMETER (SIMILAR TO WHAT DENTISTS, HYGIENISTS AND RADIOLOGISTS WEAR) RECOMMENDED SHOTS OR COMBINATION OF PILLS OR SUPPLEMENTS AND IF ANY MORE FREQUENT MEDICAL TESTING IS OCCURRING UNRELATED TO UPCOMING ASSIGNMENTS OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTRY OR STATE YOU ARE STATIONED IN.

...I shuddered when I read that, Hot Caviar (I'm assuming it was you who made that post).

And I thought nothing could frazzle me now... What absolutely mind-blowing times we live in. I feel like a character in a Neil Schulte, David Brin or Whitley Streiber novel.

New seawater levels

New seawater levels announced 4/23

http://www.asahi.com/english/TKY201104230223.html

"In the sea 34 kilometers

"In the sea 34 kilometers from the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant, 186 becquerels per liter of water was recorded on April 15. The figure is close to the 200 becquerels found in the Irish Sea," Hirose said.

Pretty disturbing, seems like high levels that far out for the great diluter.

Do not drink the milk my

Do not drink the milk my friends

as someone who drove across

as someone who drove across US post plume and back, I can attest all people in the vehicle suffered the dry hack cough intermittently. Naseau and feeling like needed to vomit from time to time. Observed yellow snow in high elevations of northern AZ

dry cough only appeared

dry cough only appeared after the plume had caught up with us. This was verified by following local news as travelled that they were detecting different isotopes
