TEPCO unable to gauge No.2 reactor water level, NHK, June 25, 2011:
[TEPCO] says it still cannot obtain accurate data on the water level and pressure of the Number 2 reactor. It says a provisional measuring device installed earlier this week is not operating properly. [...]
TEPCO says this is because the temperature near the reactor containment vessel is so high that water inside the device’s pipes has evaporated.
Fuel meltdowns are believed to have occurred at the Number 1 through Number 3 reactors, leading to a possibility that there is little water left inside the Number 2 reactor. [...]

So, if there’s already been a meltdown, and now there’s very little water left, how does this get any worse? What is the next lousy thing to happen in reactor 2?

Spontanious exotermal combustion.

Here is what Gundersen said about what happen in # 2, leaving the cover building standing unlike others that blew off during exsplosions !
Gundersen news *VIDEO*
Tepco admitted that the level was 7.5 million times higher than the legal limit. CNN host makes lame comparison of amount of radioactive water released to the amount of water in the ocean without reporting the astronomical high concentration.

Like I said, if the 50 story office tower in the city near you is engulfed in flames, and the fire department starts reporting increases and decreases in the thermal readings, it’s time for a new fire department.

Your analogy is a good one.
In this case, the “fire department” is evidently the global nuclear mafia (or real “nuclear family” – http://globalcooperative.wordpress.com/2011/05/02/real-global-nuclear-family/), which conglomerate “entity” is a primary political “tool” of the global corporate oligarchy.
Thus, for us to get a “new fire department” will require unprecedented numbers of human beings (ie. hundreds of millions and even billions of people) collectively demanding such a change. These global rulers will not let go their tight and powerful grip on planet Earth without massive and active resistance from essentially all of humankind.

5 Russian experts who helped Iran with Bushehr plant killed
Five Russian scientists who died in a plane crash on Tuesday had been helping Iran with its Bushehr nuclear power plant, Dailymail reported. They were among 45 killed when the plane’s lights failed in heavy fog and careered into a motorway before bursting into flames. Russian security sources confirmed that the dead scientists worked at the Bushehr plant on the Iranian Persian Gulf.

@ westcoastgirl: Yep, that’s how these psycho creeps operate. Take out a whole plane to get their “targets” – too bad for the ordinary folk who happened to be flying in the same plane.
This has been happening since planes existed (dozens of historical examples in fact), but here are two other prominent examples from the past decade:
Oct 25, 2002: Senator Wellstone (and his entire family) – he was the single vote that WOULD have tipped the balance of power such that psychotic policies like invading Iraq could NOT have progressed. He “had” to be killed by the PTB for their plans to proceed.
Feb 13, 2009: Beverly Eckert, a 9-11 widow and one of the most significant figures in the 9-11 “truth” movement expressed by her unrelenting efforts to uncover the truth about what happened on that dark day, until her untimely death (curiously, only days after meeting and shaking the hand – of death? – of Puppet-in-Chief Obama). She was one of the only ones who did NOT take payout money after 9-11, as such required forfeit of ANY possible future legal action – she was not willing to give up this right and a hero she is for it. Certainly someone who “had” to be killed to make an example for those wanting the truth about the US government.

Here’s something that most people probably don’t know: Firefox is in bed with big brother Google when it comes to tracking your every move online.
http://blog.jim.com/politics/google-is-evil.html
“Firefox reports your IP and all nearby wifi systems to Google. Thunderbird reports your IP to Google. From the nearby wifi systems, Google can locate you relative to nearby wifi points.. From a multitude of browsers reporting in, it can locate wifi systems relative to each other. When it does ground level photo drives for Google Earth, it locates wifi systems relative to streets and houses. Knowing the location of some wifi systems relative to streets and houses, it can locate all wifi systems relative to streets and houses. So when you launch a search for a sexual preference, or a politically incorrect fact, Google can tell where you are sitting, what house you are in, when you search for unapproved knowledge. It keeps this information forever.”
- The article then goes on to tell you how to disable this “feature” in Firefox that is all about automatically tracking your every move.
Indeed, for at least 5-6 years Google has directly included in their legal terms and conditions the claim of PERPETUAL copyright free use of ANY information put into ANY and ALL Google services.
This means that ANY of us who send ANY e-mail or enter ANY search or upload ANY images/videos/etc via ANY and ALL Google services are giving Google “legal” (debatable!) permission to use ANY of this information FOREVER, without any further permission required.
I’ve been warning people about the true nature of “G O O gle” (yes those ARE spying eyes in the middle) for many years, yet most struggle to see this company (with such a simple, safe looking colourful logo) as it is. Certainly, Google is one of the most integrated big brother spy technologies ever created in human history.

We were already told that number 2 had a meltdown –probably melt through, why are they saying anything about water level in the containment? They reported holes in the bottom, so now they need to measure the water level?

They have been repeatedly, over months, trying to confuse and divert everyone through the use of technics: my feeling is that if you let yourself get involved in these obfuscations, you have become a party to the crime.

Water treatment system at plant achieves decontamination
National Jun. 25, 2011
TOKYO —
The glitch-plagued water decontamination system at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power complex has been able to lower the concentration of radioactive substances in highly contaminated water to the targeted level, the plant’s operator Tokyo Electric Power Co said Friday.
The successful trial run of the water treatment system paves the way for the start, possibly by the end of June, of operations to cool the damaged nuclear power reactors using water recycled in the decontamination system to establish a circulating cooling system as part of efforts to contain the crisis triggered by the earthquake and tsunami in March.

Why do I think this is like saying, “The forest fire has burned a million acres with no end in sight, but, the fire department has decided to have all of their people pee on it in an attempt to control it”. 3 cores have melted thru. The SFP in 3 exploded. Arne said in one of his interviews he believes it is now in a ‘run away state’, I regretfully agree with that statement.

Yaaaaay! They fixed it! Whew.

If melt thru occured there are no more ‘reactors’ to cool. The reactor PCV’s have been breached and liquid hell is lying in the SCV, maybe. Or it has burned it’s way beyond that and is somewhere underneath the reactor buidling. In any event, there is no more ‘core’ left in any of the reactors as it has all melted and burned thru the bottom by now.

It takes out cesium, oil and sludge does not make the water radiation free.
“The company says the amount of stored contaminated water will drop significantly, once the decontamination system begins operating. It says it wants to start spraying the recycled water into the reactors by the end of this month.
But first, pipes and valves must be checked thoroughly as the components of the system are located in different parts of the plant, and the contaminated water travels a distance of 4 kilometers during treatment.”

“The system is designed to filter radioactive material, oil and salt from the
contaminated water and to reuse the treated water to cool the reactors.”

I highly doubt building 3 is in any shape for anything inside of it to ‘work’. That goes for buildings 1, 2 and 4 also. But 3, look at the pictures of it, it looks like it could hardly be more destroyed….

In order to clarify the situation and assemble more accurate data I suggest that they stop referring to the individual structures as “reactors” but instead call them hellhole 1 thru 4. Water does not exist in hell.
