I am livid about the rash of press releases over the study of internal exposure tests performed on the citizens of Minamisoma, which was the one town (at least in part) that was spared the brunt of fallout from Daiichi. They go in, test the people from the part of town that was not affected by the fallout, and declare by omission of people in the areas where the fallout did hit hard that all Japanese citizens are free and clean of radiation exposure. Lies by omission, and the press is all jumping on the bandwagon on this one. It makes me ill to see so many so eager to prove that Fukushima is a paradise, instead of the hell it truly is.
Some lowlights: "mental toll", "levels not terribly high", "lower than Chernobyl", "tsunami caused", "most exposures within a week of meltdown", "airborne cesium" (only)… on and on. It's really piled thick.

"Japan is to help Vietnam set up a compensation plan for nuclear accidents, despite criticism that its own system fails to meet victims' needs."
After reading a lot about holes in the earth's magnetic field, and the sun going through it's 11 year cycle with solar flares and its most active period being 2012-2013 in that cycle, I can't help but wonder what would happen if we got a big flare like they did back in the 1800's where it fried telegraph wires.
Nowadays, that would wreak havoc I would assume, including messing up the electricity needed to keep a nuke plant up and running "safely". What on earth would we do if say, even half the nuke plants were taken offline from something like this?
In May I was asked to join a group a group around 15-25 people who met with the then Chairman of the NRC, Mr. Jaczko when he came in to tour the Palisades nuclear plant. We talked with him about a variety of concerns regarding the Palisades nuclear plant. The following week we found out about the leak and then sent a letter to Chairman Jaczko as to why he did not tell us about the leak at the time we met with him, apparently he didn’t know either. I have a lot more to say about this but don’t have time right now to post more. Here are some links to my blog entries regarding this meeting as it occurred at the time.

But it is possible that the reactor could be shut down for good. Willy De Roovere, who heads the FANC regulator agency, said it was always hard for a company to meet a requirement to prove a nuclear plant is safe. He told a news conference that Electrabel, the Belgian unit of France’s GDF Suez, would have to show that "in a period of the remaining lifetime there is no single risk, there is no risk at all that cracks can go [on to produce leaks].""

Westinghouse Signs Teaming Agreement with Studsvik to Provide Full Range of Decommissioning Services in Europe
The first commercial nuclear power plants in Europe were commissioned 50 years ago and many of these units are now approaching their designed operating life. Additionally, political decisions have shortened the expected operation of nuclear power plants in Germany, where 17 nuclear reactors are planning to be phased out by 2022; eight were shut down in March 2011. For these reasons, a significant number of nuclear power plants across Europe will need to be decommissioned and dismantled in the next 15 to 20 years.
Millstone Looking To Adjust Operation To Warmer Water
WATERFORD — — As the Unit 2 nuclear reactor at the Millstone Power Station begins its sixth day of a shutdown due to record high water temperatures in Long Island Sound, engineers at the plant are beginning to look at whether the plant could be operated safely with warmer water than the current license allows.
"It's a long-term project to analyze whether we could go above 75 degrees," said Ken Holt, spokesman for Millstone owner Dominion. "It may involve some changes in the equipment."
Temperature data collected by environmental scientists at Millstone shows average temperatures of the waters around the plant have risen by 0.67 degrees per decade since 1976, Holt said. In 1976, the annual mean temperature was 51.6 degrees, compared to 53.4 degrees in 2009.
Record Heat, Drought Pose Problems for U.S. Electric Power
Record heat and drought conditions across the United States this summer have plagued power plants that require cool water to produce electricity.
From Connecticut to California, high water temperatures and diminished access to water caused by drought have forced a number of power plants to ramp down production or acquire waivers to operate with cooling water above regulated temperatures. At least one plant has suspended operations
As More About Fukushima Contamination and Casualties Is Known, Japan Proceeding Without Nuclear Reactors
It has been almost 18 months since the disastrous meltdowns struck four nuclear reactors at the Fukushima plant in northern Japan. While daily news footage of exploding reactor buildings, emergency workers dressed like spacemen, and officials sweeping radiation detectors over children's bodies have disappeared, the impact of Fukushima continues.

Just found this blog written in english by Anne Kaneko who lives in Koriyama, Fukushima prefecture, Japan. She started the blog in March 2011 and it provides an interesting insight from someone who lives and works in Fukushima. http://annekaneko.blogspot.co.uk/2012_08_01_archive.html
Instead of encasing excess plutonium in glass shells and placing the weapons material in a repository deep underground, as if it were nuclear waste, the United States and Russia agreed to convert the plutonium into a mixed-oxide fuel known as MOX…
About 30 power reactors worldwide use MOX, though it's MOX made from plutonium that's in the spent-nuclear fuel left over in a reactor after electricity is produced rather than MOX directly from weapons.
Now, the Tennessee Valley Authority, a leader in the nuclear industry known for demonstrating new technologies, is considering the use of MOX made from weapons plutonium at two of its nuclear plants: Sequoyah near Chattanooga, Tennessee; and Browns Ferry in northern Alabama. TVA has posted a draft environmental impact statement on its plans in the Federal Register. MOX would replace conventional uranium fuel in 40% of the fuel assemblies at each nuclear plant.
Russia's nuclear plants are already using MOX that has been produced from weapons plutonium under international safeguards.
Once TVA demonstrates the use of MOX, other U.S. nuclear utilities are likely to do the same.
Chasa, I asked 13 people at work yesterday if they knew that Fukushima was still a threat. The majority of responses I got to begin with were, "what's Fukushima?". I was floored. Anyway, after reminding them of the nuke plant in Japan most of them vaguely remembered and didn't believe me that there was still a problem because they haven't heard it on the news. I'm about ready to give up.
Many I know are somewhat aware, but just don't want to think about it.
I also get similar responses as CBuck. I try not to gasp when they say "What's Fukushima?". Then I try my best to let them know there are 3 meltdowns and that workers cannot even enter the buildings to work on them.
I am confident that everyone will be effected, one way or another, sooner or later.
My answers would be:
1. a.
2. d.
I will never 'give up' trying to do the right thing.
Here's a video/movie about never giving up. I saw this movie as a child and when I watched it again the other day I knew it's message had become a part of me.

In the United States, several tons of nuclear waste were generated during the Cold War’s arms race, and the radio active byproducts were dumped in over 3000 sites around the country. 70 million cubed meters of soil and 3 trillion liters of water were contaminated when Uranium, Cesium, Plutonium, Strontium, Technetium, Chromium, Lead, Mercury, TCE, and toulene by leaching. A variant of D. Radiodurans genetically engineered to express decontamination genes of other bioremediating bacteria was introduced to several sites as an in situ decontamination method, a project sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy. Radiation levels at these sites were toxic for all other bioremediating life forms, however D. radiodurans was observed decontaminating the sites Mercury and Toulene waste. Traditional methods such as dredging and pumping were likely to range above $300 billion, but the economic advantage of using D. radiodurans in bioremediation reduced the cost by millions. http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Deinococcus_radiodurans

"Researchers, activists gather to discuss nuclear-free world" is today's msm headline in my part of the world. I perked up and read the story to find that it was "only" about nuke weapons. Good for them, but nuke-everything-else was just not on their radar – Fukushima wasn't mentioned. Bummer!
The conference was at a historically famous site, set up by industrialist Cyrus Eaton. It got me thinking about how many of the old "robber baron" industrialists (Nobel, Stanford, Carnegie et al.) contributed major humanitarian efforts – as they aged and got worried about their legacy. Anyway, I tried to recall names of similar contemporary figures and came up only with Bill Gates. At the risk of over-generalizing, it strikes me that today's robber barons are even more greedy and self-centered than their predecessors – they seem to lack the "give-something-back" gene.
A big part of the current "letter writing campaign" for MOX is the claim that it takes dangerous nuclear weapons and turns them into "clean" energy, so this sounds like it could be part of that campaign.
Like this MOX plant by GE at Sellafield to "clean up" plutonium…
'Untested' nuclear reactors may be used to burn up plutonium waste
Feasibility study looks at building revolutionary new facility at Sellafield to dispose of stockpile
An ambitious plan to rid Britain of its civil plutonium stockpile – the biggest in the world – has come a step closer with the submission of a feasibility study for building revolutionary nuclear reactors to "burn" the waste at Sellafield in Cumbria.
The plan envisages the construction of twin nuclear "fast reactors" at Sellafield that can dispose of the plutonium directly as fuel to generate electricity while ridding the country of a nuclear-waste headache that has dogged governments for half a century…
The American company behind the proposal, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, still has a long way to go to convince experts that it can deliver reactors that can work as promised, as well as being delivered on time and to budget. The NDA has consistently said that its "preferred option" to deal with the plutonium waste is to first convert it to mixed oxide (Mox) fuel …
That's a compelling thought, NoNukes. That "nuclear-free-world" story certainly reads like a press release on someone's behalf but I hadn't tried to connect any dots. The paper it's in is family-owned, not part of the giant media chains. I'd guess that means this particular story will be a one-off local pride thing and not get picked up by the big media echo chamber.
There does seem to be a surprising amount of pro-nuke media fluff lately – surprising in that nobody pays much attention to media in August (present company excepted, of course). Their money would be better spent after Labor Day. Maybe they are in dress rehearsal mode. Gulp!
''Business as usual''
The everyday releases of low-level radioactivity by nuclear power plants has been found to cause several kinds of health damage including premature births, congenital defects, infant mortality, mental retardation, heart ailments, arthritis, diabetes, allergies, asthma, cancer, genetic damage and chronic fatigue syndrome. It has been linked to previously unknown infectious diseases, and the resurgence of old ones by damaging the developing white blood cells originating in the bone marrow and thus weakening the immune system.
The nuclear industry and the cooperating MSM have taken control of the Fukushima Daiichi story, and the "no problem now, don't worry be happy" theme is playing louder than ever. I think Wilcox has got it right, yes?
"Fukushima Nuclear Situation “Deteriorating”
by Richard Wilcox / August 20th, 2012
His thoughts about Tokyo radiation enhanced by the dozens of incinerators burning hot debris is very scary for everyone downwind. He lives there himself.
Another of his articles has a paragraph that aptly portrays the American political system for president:
Excerpt: The fact that billionaire gangsters (10; 11) can bid to buy their respective presidential candidates with hundreds of millions of dollars attests to Total Political Corruption in USA. The real economy that people depend upon for life is being robbed of trillions of dollars, no one blinks an eyelash (12). On “January 21, 2010, the US Supreme Court” granted “corporations the freedom to donate unlimited amounts of money to political candidates.” Since it is well known that the “candidate who spends the most money wins in 9 out of 10 races,” the political process is bought, lock, stock and barrel (13)."

"In this sobering film, a family living 50 miles outside of New York must escape the fallout from a nuclear bomb dropped upon the Big Apple. Features (a very young) Walter Matthau as Dr. Spinelli."
Great acting. Some interesting inaccuracies. The social and psychological aspects may be pretty close though. Very sad when people start getting sick.
The 'no immediate concern' Nuclear campaign slogan will become a large scale fail! They used the same logic back then too. hmmm…?
However, at least this film shows some of the realities encountered by average people. First they are told the danger will pass in hours or days. Then, reality sets in.

Westinghouse Signs Teaming Agreement with Studsvik to Provide Full Range of Decommissioning Services in Europe
The first commercial nuclear power plants in Europe were commissioned 50 years ago and many of these units are now approaching their designed operating life. Additionally, political decisions have shortened the expected operation of nuclear power plants in Germany, where 17 nuclear reactors are planning to be phased out by 2022; eight were shut down in March 2011. For these reasons, a significant number of nuclear power plants across Europe will need to be decommissioned and dismantled in the next 15 to 20 years.

Millstone Looking To Adjust Operation To Warmer Water
WATERFORD — — As the Unit 2 nuclear reactor at the Millstone Power Station begins its sixth day of a shutdown due to record high water temperatures in Long Island Sound, engineers at the plant are beginning to look at whether the plant could be operated safely with warmer water than the current license allows.
"It's a long-term project to analyze whether we could go above 75 degrees," said Ken Holt, spokesman for Millstone owner Dominion. "It may involve some changes in the equipment."
Temperature data collected by environmental scientists at Millstone shows average temperatures of the waters around the plant have risen by 0.67 degrees per decade since 1976, Holt said. In 1976, the annual mean temperature was 51.6 degrees, compared to 53.4 degrees in 2009.

Record heat and drought conditions across the United States this summer have plagued power plants that require cool water to produce electricity.

Instead of encasing excess plutonium in glass shells and placing the weapons material in a repository deep underground, as if it were nuclear waste, the United States and Russia agreed to convert the plutonium into a mixed-oxide fuel known as MOX…
About 30 power reactors worldwide use MOX, though it's MOX made from plutonium that's in the spent-nuclear fuel left over in a reactor after electricity is produced rather than MOX directly from weapons.
Now, the Tennessee Valley Authority, a leader in the nuclear industry known for demonstrating new technologies, is considering the use of MOX made from weapons plutonium at two of its nuclear plants: Sequoyah near Chattanooga, Tennessee; and Browns Ferry in northern Alabama. TVA has posted a draft environmental impact statement on its plans in the Federal Register. MOX would replace conventional uranium fuel in 40% of the fuel assemblies at each nuclear plant.
Russia's nuclear plants are already using MOX that has been produced from weapons plutonium under international safeguards.
Once TVA demonstrates the use of MOX, other U.S. nuclear utilities are likely to do the same.

Thanks for the replies. Interesting mini poll.
Many I know are somewhat aware, but just don't want to think about it.
I also get similar responses as CBuck. I try not to gasp when they say "What's Fukushima?". Then I try my best to let them know there are 3 meltdowns and that workers cannot even enter the buildings to work on them.
I am confident that everyone will be effected, one way or another, sooner or later.

In the United States, several tons of nuclear waste were generated during the Cold War’s arms race, and the radio active byproducts were dumped in over 3000 sites around the country. 70 million cubed meters of soil and 3 trillion liters of water were contaminated when Uranium, Cesium, Plutonium, Strontium, Technetium, Chromium, Lead, Mercury, TCE, and toulene by leaching. A variant of D. Radiodurans genetically engineered to express decontamination genes of other bioremediating bacteria was introduced to several sites as an in situ decontamination method, a project sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy. Radiation levels at these sites were toxic for all other bioremediating life forms, however D. radiodurans was observed decontaminating the sites Mercury and Toulene waste. Traditional methods such as dredging and pumping were likely to range above $300 billion, but the economic advantage of using D. radiodurans in bioremediation reduced the cost by millions. http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Deinococcus_radiodurans

"Researchers, activists gather to discuss nuclear-free world" is today's msm headline in my part of the world. I perked up and read the story to find that it was "only" about nuke weapons. Good for them, but nuke-everything-else was just not on their radar – Fukushima wasn't mentioned. Bummer!
The conference was at a historically famous site, set up by industrialist Cyrus Eaton. It got me thinking about how many of the old "robber baron" industrialists (Nobel, Stanford, Carnegie et al.) contributed major humanitarian efforts – as they aged and got worried about their legacy. Anyway, I tried to recall names of similar contemporary figures and came up only with Bill Gates. At the risk of over-generalizing, it strikes me that today's robber barons are even more greedy and self-centered than their predecessors – they seem to lack the "give-something-back" gene.

'Untested' nuclear reactors may be used to burn up plutonium waste
Feasibility study looks at building revolutionary new facility at Sellafield to dispose of stockpile
An ambitious plan to rid Britain of its civil plutonium stockpile – the biggest in the world – has come a step closer with the submission of a feasibility study for building revolutionary nuclear reactors to "burn" the waste at Sellafield in Cumbria.
The plan envisages the construction of twin nuclear "fast reactors" at Sellafield that can dispose of the plutonium directly as fuel to generate electricity while ridding the country of a nuclear-waste headache that has dogged governments for half a century…
The American company behind the proposal, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, still has a long way to go to convince experts that it can deliver reactors that can work as promised, as well as being delivered on time and to budget. The NDA has consistently said that its "preferred option" to deal with the plutonium waste is to first convert it to mixed oxide (Mox) fuel …

That's a compelling thought, NoNukes. That "nuclear-free-world" story certainly reads like a press release on someone's behalf but I hadn't tried to connect any dots. The paper it's in is family-owned, not part of the giant media chains. I'd guess that means this particular story will be a one-off local pride thing and not get picked up by the big media echo chamber.
There does seem to be a surprising amount of pro-nuke media fluff lately – surprising in that nobody pays much attention to media in August (present company excepted, of course). Their money would be better spent after Labor Day. Maybe they are in dress rehearsal mode. Gulp!

''Business as usual''
The everyday releases of low-level radioactivity by nuclear power plants has been found to cause several kinds of health damage including premature births, congenital defects, infant mortality, mental retardation, heart ailments, arthritis, diabetes, allergies, asthma, cancer, genetic damage and chronic fatigue syndrome. It has been linked to previously unknown infectious diseases, and the resurgence of old ones by damaging the developing white blood cells originating in the bone marrow and thus weakening the immune system.

The real economy that people depend upon for life is being robbed of trillions of dollars, no one blinks an eyelash (12). On “January 21, 2010, the US Supreme Court” granted “corporations the freedom to donate unlimited amounts of money to political candidates.” Since it is well known that the “candidate who spends the most money wins in 9 out of 10 races,” the political process is bought, lock, stock and barrel (13)."
