China Detects Radiation Over Southeast Coastal Areas As Asahi Reports Of Holes In Reactor Pressure Vessels 1, 2 And 3
Radiation damage control now shifts over to the granddaddy of all free media China, where Xinhua has just reported a "tiny amount of radioactive material in the air over the nation's southeastern coastal areas" has been detected. But not to worry: just like in Japan and everywhere else in the world, this radiation is of the special "Ann Coulter" variety which actually boosts one's natural healthy glow and facilitates a prompt chromosome doubling courtesy of supposedly uber-benign mutation, and after all: more is better, so surely 92 chromosomes is much better than just 46 diploid pairs: "Xinhua quoted China's Nuclear Emergency Coordination Commission as
saying that the radioactive level detected does not affect human health
and no preventive measures are necessary."
From Kyodo:
The radioactive material is believed to have drifted from Japan as a result of radiation leaking from the earthquake-crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power complex.
China detected low levels of radioactive iodine-131 in the air over Heilongjiang Province in the northeast for the second day on Sunday, Xinhua said, adding that public health and the environment were not affected.
Chinese monitoring stations detected radioactive material in the air for the first time on Saturday, according to China's Nuclear Emergency Coordination Commission.
And courtesy of EX-SKF, we now learn that TEPCO is once again doing all it can to massage disclosure and delay the release of potentially unpalatable data, after the Asahi Shinbun only recently announced that the Pressure vessels in reactors 1, 2 and 3 may have holes confirming everybody's worst fears of full blown release of radioactive particles in the environment.
From EX-SKF:
From Asahi Shinbun news about one hour ago (3:00PM JST 3/28/2011). Why
the hell are they reporting it now?? The information was supposed to
have been revealed in the press conference that TEPCO had past midnight
on March 28, according to the article:
Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) admitted to the possibility in its early March 28 press conference that the steel Reactor Pressure Vessels that hold nuclear fuel rods in the Reactors 1, 2, 3 at Fukushima I Nuclear Plant may have broken. TEPCO explained the situation "Imagine there's a hole." Because
of this "hole", contaminated water that's been poured into the Pressure
Vessels to cool the fuel rods continues to leak, it is assumed.In
the Reactors 1, 2, and 3, the water level within the Pressure Vessels
are not rising as much as desired. TEPCO admitted in the March 28 press
conference that the reason why the Pressure Vessels haven't been filled
with water was "probably a hole near the bottom, that's the image we
have". Asked why there was a hole, TEPCO answered they did not know.The
Reactor Pressure Vessels (RPVs) are the most important of the 5-layer
protection against radiation leak (other 4 are the fuel pellets,
cladding of fuel rods, Container Vessels, and the Reactor buildings).
The RPVs at Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant is made of 16-centimeter
thick steel, and it has an outlet at the bottom to insert measuring
instruments. It is possible that the leak is from that area.TEPCO also admitted to the possibility of the exposed nuclear fuel rods overheating and damaging the RPVs.
According to the nuclear experts, if the fuel rods get damaged and
start to melt, it will fall to the bottom of the RPVs and settle. It
then becomes harder to cool with water effectively, because the surface
area is smaller. It is possible that the melted fuel rods melted the
wall of the RPVs with high temperature and created a hole.On the
other hand, TEPCO said it didn't think the RPVs are completely broken,
because the pressures inside the RPVs were higher than the atmosphere.
"It is not like Chernobyl where the RPV exploded and the fuels were
outside the RPV." TEPCO continued to believe in the integrity of the
RPVs.
The article continues, but it's not about the RPVs. So far, it's only at Asahi.

So it's still got 'some' pressure...
Bullish... definitely...
"so surely 92 chromosomes is much better than just 46 diploid pairs"
LOL TD... I can't believe you're so knowledge in areas outside of finance as well.
Got a hole in your reactor? Fear not. Just throw in a couple of 55 gallon drums of "Bar's Leaks Radiator Stop Leak" and all your problems will disappear. In just 20 minutes the hole will be plugged and you'll be on your way to Happyville.
/sarc
BTW folks, does this remind anyone of the BP disaster and "junk shots" in the blowout protector?
Yeah, it does. However, I have since learned to love petroshrimp. I'm guessing folk will learn to like radioactive sushi, too. As some ZH'rs have pointed out, plutonium isn't really all that bad. /sarc
And so as the criminal syndicate known as Wall Street attempts its typical low volume afternoon markup, have no fear! Follow the bankers...for they always lead people to truth and profitability. But just be sure to feel around for the death of credibility, too...for it is almost upon us now. It lurches towards us now, the stench of it on the air.
hmm.. plutonium, tastes like chicken...
That's exactly what Ben Bernanke told me.
-------> Real men use JB Weld. <-------
Now that's funny. Thanks CD. We needed that.
Can't we just disperse the radiation with a little surplus Corexit?
Good idea, unfortunately there isn't any spare. Responsible people are dumping Corexit into the gulf of Mexico as fast as it's produced. You see, this is needed to protect BP err... um... us. Yes, to protect us.
Typical male sexist bullshit. Tampons.
And for us, ear tampons:
http://www.salusa.se/sida62.html
Great idea.
But who's gonna get close enough to insert said tampons? "Not me" said the coward CD. :>)
Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, not 46.
Except for trolls and bots, ZH readers have a diploid number of 46, representing 23 paired chromosomes. From Wikipedia
Human sex cells (sperm and egg) have one complete set of chromosomes from the male or female parent. Sex cells, also called gametes, combine to produce somatic cells. Somatic cells therefore have twice as many chromosomes. The haploid number (n) is the number of chromosomes in a gamete. A somatic cell has twice that many chromosomes (2n).
Humans are diploid. A human somatic cell contains 46 chromosomes: 2 complete haploid sets, which make up 23 homologous chromosome pairs. However, many organisms have more than two sets of homologous chromosomes and are called polyploid.
you know I fuckin KNEW I was different...
It's actually 23 pairs, plus a pair of sex chromosomes to keep things interesting...

More good news for the Dow, up up and away bitchez
nothing to worry about...this is the good kind of radiation...the kind that brightens your smile and gives your skin that healthy glow that supermodels and movie stars pay top dollar for.
Sadly, only space alien movie stars like the 'healthy glow' as it has a blue-green tint. However, the 'little green men' from Mars will be happy to take it off our hands, if we can manage delivery.
Its called "Nuclear Tan". Gives you a nice complexion when they throw you in the coffin.

Nah, that's called plastic surgery...
Xinhua further reports that the cities affected are void of human inhabitants. GDP should not be impacted either as businesses in the indicated region have no actual revenues.
well there's no shortage of them is there?
My popcorn is beginning to glow.

hey trav...if you're in the market for a more upbeat spin on radiation poisoning, earthquakes, tsunamis, war and unemployment...may I suggest...
http://www.cnbc.com/
enjoy.
Let's decompile the headline shall we:
While from Asahi:
That said, we are confident you could certainly phrase the headline to fit your bias better. How about this:
"There is nothing to be worried about in Fukushima. Nobody has died yet. Plutonium leaked was of the non-toxic variety. TEPCO workers' burns due to direct exposure to massive radiation poisoning from sunbathig. Everyone remain calm."
Is that better?
Trav's just ZH's latest resident douchebag whiner.
these rebuttles are why people pray to ZH instead of Allah now...
And yet "admitted to the possibility" means nothing if you stop and think about it.
---
I admit to the possibility a woman may get pregnant; "imagine there's a hole..." bees and all that. Suddenly everybody is discussing if it's a boy or a girl and the woman doesn't even exist...
I think Trav is just having a bit of Ann Coulter envy. He'll feel much better once the radiation kicks in.

trav has lodged a complaint here that's better directed at Asahi.
Hey Tyler, please don't report the delayed, obfuscated, concealed truth when it finally does reveal itself (let alone stay on top of the glaring black hole that is the Lame Stream Media 'coverage' - h/t to you for that excellent summation by the Brazilian expert)...
....and don't quote from things like...oh I don't know...Asahi....
...because trav777 says you're shameless (for reporting what the mainstream Japanese media is now) for doing so, apparently.
"It is not like Chernobyl..."
- TEPCO. 28 March, 2011.
"I am not a crook."
- Richard Milhous Nixon. 3 April, 1974. Resigned 9 August, 1974.
LOL ... that's what I love about this site, the 'free-association' stuff ...
"I am not a crook."
Hey, nixon didn't steal anything, so he was right in his claim.
Now goldbutt sachs are good crooks, like robbing (the) hood, doing gods work.
Keeping us from the truth, is a growing (prosperous), new normal and a hard (hand) job. They made some (planned) mistakes.
>"There is nothing to be worried about in Fukushima. Nobody has died yet. Plutonium leaked was of the non-toxic variety. TEPCO workers' burns due to direct exposure to massive radiation poisoning from sunbathig. Everyone remain calm."
Write that and I know it's Project Mayhem starting.

Trav 7777,
I wan't to be honest with you, in that I used to hold you in high regard here at ZH. But over the last few weeks as this situation has gotten worse and worse your attitude toward ZH and it's members has deteriorated.
If ZH put out this information without verification don't you think the credibility of ZH would be put at risk.
Riddle me this !............why has everything ZH reported turned out to be correct and everything you have rebutted turned out to be, well ? "rebutted". Does that not tell of whose credibility is deteriorating ?
That being said.................Dont you have a History book to read ?
He's an asshole. End of.
specifically, what information have I put out that has been rebutted?
TD. What is going on with all the junking??? Every post has a junk now!!
Yes, the junk signal to noise ratio is definitely decreasing on these fuku threads.
This is what nuclear industry panic looks like.
Not really,
TEPCO spouts BS, Japanese Government repeats BS, US Government repeats BS, and now Chinese Government repeats BS, it’s an endless cycle of nonsense orbiting truth/facts/objectivity at a vast distance.
Since, in addition to forgery, the Chinese are pretty adept at making lemons form lemonade, I would liked to have seen some State tool at Xinhua come out and blame every case of cancer in China since the Great Leap Forward on Japan's "non-meltdown".
The Chinese and Japanese don’t sit around together and sing kumbayah, or coordinate their greed and mismanagement imbalances
What good are front row seats to the fight when the boxers are prancing around like sugar plum fairies?
Let's decompile, yeah:

Yes, South Korea report:

Thank you Dagny, at least the radiation levels are apparently low.
It will not be fun for us in the bearing business if Fukushima turns into a mega-disaster, spewing lots of sieverts all over the place, and losing our suppliers...
Actually, it will not be fun for anybody.
:(
:(
losing our suppliers...
Ding Ding Ding...give this man a cigar.
At least THOSE aren't made in Japan.
Lots of various suppliers affected.
"Actually, it will not be fun for anybody."
You are abs correct there ...
Do, are you still down in bolivia?
Zh has funk junk fun days.
I´m in Peru on a business visit (our family owned company is here), velo, but we have decent internet connections so I am able to stay in touch.
Being down here means that I have missed a couple of days of ´nothing to worry about´amounts of yummy radioactive iodine and cesium isotopes. I can start working on my radiation intake on April 1 when we get back...
Yes, I have seen a couple of real junk-o-ramas in the past few days here at ZH.
I hope the Chinese government isn't using "Made in China" detection equipment- if they are, how do they separate out all the pre-exisitng background toxic crap that they have been poisoning their own population with for decades?
If "Made in Chu-goku" radiation detection equipment scares you.
Look up the AP1000 by Westinghouse.
And look at what the Chinese company is planning on doing with it.
speaking of which...
on radiationnetwork.com this morning, northern alabama had a high reading i saw of 174
now there is no reporting of that location at all
do we assume bad detector, or actual problem now being covered up?
Bama has the internet kill switch; don't expect network sensors funded by govvie to be online if shit goes south
And how do we know the source of radiation is not of their own making? If you have problems this is the time to blame others...
Radiation causes epicanthal fold.
This just in from Ann Coulter:
Japanese radiation will endow powerful mutations in humans ala "X-Men".
Stand next to Reactor #1 to be Wolverine, and next to #2 to be Cyclops.
If you want to be all you can be, stand next to Reactor #3's plutonium and you can be Magneto!!!!!
The only thing you have to fear is the non-mutants in your neighborhood who will be soooooooo jealous of you and your awesome new powers!
and reactor number 4 for Captain Goo...
Ann's just proud of her early and massive exposure.

I'm starting to think that Ann Coulter's piece on radiation being good for you was brilliant biting sarcasm. Think about it; you write it as seriously as you can and anyone who doesn't like you or your political bent gives you weeks and months of thrashings. That kind of sarcasm would be pointing the finger at the TEPCO inability to tell the truth, no?
Could they airlift those vessels using those plated helicopters to the Marianas trench, and would sinking to the bottom create enough compressive force to seal those vessels?
What are they going to do otherwise? Send in wave after wave of sacrificial humans to "cool" something that can't be cooled? Why haven't they buried them either?
As it is they seem to be delaying the inevitable melt down and leakthrough into local water and land while throwing human flesh at it instead of sand and concrete.
They ought to build reactors into silos attached to rockets so if there is a non-containable leak they can shoot it off into the void of space past our friend Pluto.
It is just agonizing to hear these slowly detailed nightmares and picuture people trying to "cool" what seems un-coolable with firehoses and seawater that simply becomes irradiated and washes back out to burn the poor souls and go into coastal and drinking water.
An evil enterprise for sure.
Sand and concrete? Maybe soon nobody will be able to do that.
Human greed went to far this time.
Japan syndrome.
Anyone who's listened to Ann knows that biting sarcasm is her style. Why would anyone really think she meant radiation is good for you? Unless you've never listened to her, or read her blog.
She's the queen of sarcasm. I like her, looks aside.
But then, I ain't no Adonis either.
your post contains more tragic admissions than an OJ Simpson deathbed confession.
Really?? Biting sarcasm - laughing out loud!
cbxher, i read where she was originally a man. she changed her name and gender. i knew i didn't care for her voice. i don't respect that mancunt. i really don't know why a man would want to be a woman. she has a huge adams apple. i guess that means girls don't have an adams apple, i forget?
Lots of pictures here, some when she was considerably younger, and better looking. Puts to rest that "used to be a man" crappola.

Does trav know they found plutonium and shit outside the reactors?
I better tell him -
Trav says ain't no thing, and that you can put two scoops of plutonium on your raisin bran and not have any health issues.
If that's a woman, the estrogen levels are waaaay off.
Funny, I was thinking about the trench idea too. WTF is the ending to all of this?
A giant concrete tomb is not really practical given the amount of seismic activity in that neck of the woods.
Would it even be possible to relocate these damaged reactors? Would dumping them into the deepest hole on earth fuck up our oceans and pollute them forever?
Is Rockefeller still in Chile? How big are the underground cities and can I reserve a place amongst the privileged few if I agree to be Ann Coulter's man-slave? These are all questions that are floating through my head right now.
'A giant concrete tomb is not really practical given the amount of seismic activity in that neck of the woods.'
Neither is a nuclear power plant...
Not practical? Maybe with the incoming radiations.
But the "cube" would be the most resistant building in a 30 km radius, especially if erected on sands.
Go ahead, shake it, and tell me if it breaks.

she is the archetypal debater. she can take the podium, act like she owns the place, and apply her mechanical, mercurial sophistry to fuking anything, with total impunity. when she finally shuts her fuking piehole, you can just see her thinking, "I won, again!"
at first, when she was actually defending fuking cheney somewhat successfully, i thought, wow! that is fuking amazing! when Valerie Plame got outed from the CIA b/c of her husband, she was just simply awesome! the "source" (novak, after forever!) the disinfo in the Times, the people in the White House trying to remember this trivial shit, she made absolutely sure that no one would ever think...
so, she's got her skills. robot debater! as a person, disgusting!
I thought that Dick Cheney was the bitch...
Now you have a country so fucked and busy with Muslims that not only you can't fix the real problem, but you can't even (really) see it.
From NHK
"16 tons of water was being injected into the reactor every hour but TEPCO now says it wants to reduce the amount to 7 tons. This would be enough to replace the amount that is evaporating..."
Losing 9 tons of water per hour is around 30 gallons per minute. Take 3 5/8" garden hoses turn them on full blast and that is what is 'leaking' out of reactor 2!
You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and a little more red.
Saint Peter, don't you call me, 'cause I can't go;
I owe my soul to the boss and Tepco.
I'm pretty sure everyone's going to flame me, but I honestly foresee China invading us when the SHTF. Call it science fiction, doom and gloom falderall, malarky, whatever. I just see this radiation polluting their land and agriculture combined with their population mid-crash in America being a pretty good time to halt oil exports and ... y'know ... sail the ocean blue kind of thing.
Either way it'd be a bad ass book.
"It wasn't a choice. It was an unbearable truth the dynasty had to act upon. The nation with the least nuclear fallout was South America and the southern most parts of the United States like Texas and the Coast. Millions by millions they came and took over our land. Radiation had decimated their numbers, but there was still hundreds of millions of them. Unable to eat, unable to drink their water that had sustained them for centuries they moved. They moved into America." - Circa 2035 AD.
</crap>
I love it when you read to me sweetie.
well No, they certainly won't be invading Japan...
All about resources.
They could certainly use our agricultural land - and probably wouldn't mind the blondes.
A couple of well placed nukes at altitude over major ciites to cause an electromagnetic pulse and population centers would be helpless.
The new Blitzkrieg.
"A couple of well placed nukes at altitude over major ciites"
A few dozen on them and there would be no one coming this way.
- 1,400,000,000 of them...
True.
One nuke for each coast, about 18 miles altitude - one between L.A. and San Diego to knock out the naval bases and panic the cities - one between N.Y. and D.C. to knock out Norfolk and Government.

me thinks you haven't really thought this through, have you...
I'm not sure to get you, but really hope you're not trying to tell me that China is not a bunch of baby killers.
Well, not all of them, I know a guy in Shanghai who has two lovely children...
That kind of "head of family" sheeple will never decide to invade the US, as I guess you know.
It's true that real piece of shit never get children...
The Chinese are 40 to 50 years from being able to challenge America for dominance of the Pacific waters. The ide that they could move troops across the pacific is just unrealistic AT THIS POINT.
That said, They could certainly try the Alaskan route.
Nevertheless, if they invade ANYONE it is going to be the Russians. Why try and take on the most powerful naval force EVER when you have all the energy resources and undeveloped land right across your border in Asia.
The Russians didn't just announce a $650B expansion of their defense budget to modernize their forces because they are worried about Poland invading.
Now you've done it. Screwed up a perfectly good black helicopter conspiracy by injecting common sense.
Thank for nothing.
It's like saying we're more powerful because we can destroy you 50 times where you can only destroy us twenty. The flaw in the logic is sadly quite evident...
So sad. Our sea force was made obsolete on this day: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-492804/The-uninvited-guest-Chine...
You can have all the musketmen in the world, but they'll do you no good against an attack helicopter.
The real power of the US is the Air Force. Unfortunately (or otherwise), we are untested against a modern foe.
another topic for you to make a fool of yourself, i see...don't let a topic go to waste, Claven.
Maritime ASW versus wartime...you might wanna do a little research on this before speaking again.
Yes, and another topic for you to wave your hands around while insulting everyone, while simultaneously demanding everyone else back up their arguments with peer reviewed articles while you cite two anonymous jackoffs on the talk page of a wiki article as valid sources AND where you don't post any facts, but only empty refutations while somehow managing to excuse any and all evil actions or intentions of any and all governments, unless they are run by blacks, in which case you tell us they have tiny brains.
Sound about right?
Only problem is that we would likely come to Russia's aid to prevent Chinese domination of Eurasian continent.
Now, if the Chinese knocked us out, then they might just work a deal with the Russians to share the spoils. Who is going to stop them, the U.K.? France?

I'm personally siding with the above comment regarding Russia being a more likely candidate for Chinese resource aggression.
I wonder what GE Reactor Engineering has to say on this theory (re: melt and all) ...
You know, the guys (PhD eggheads et al) that did the 'worst case scenario' studies and all on coolant loss ...
Update: The comments above got junked? LOL ... stoooooopid. Absolutely Stooooopid.
Trav7777 is right, we've got some real ________ (FITB) here on this site!
So I guess that pretty much confirms what this guy was saying: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2b7Dp5F1Mc
The 'official' report from TEPCO - four or five hours old, I believe ...
[No update from the last release issued at 3:00 pm, March 28th] Unit Status 1 · Reactor cold shutdown, stable water level, offsite power is available. · No reactor coolant is leaked to the reactor containment vessel. · Maintain average water temperature below 100°C in the Pressure Suppression Chamber. 2 · Reactor cold shutdown, stable water level, offsite power is available. · No reactor coolant is leaked to the reactor containment vessel. · Maintain average water temperature below 100°C in the Pressure Suppression Chamber. 3 · Reactor cold shutdown, stable water level, offsite power is available. · No reactor coolant is leaked to the reactor containment vessel. · Maintain average water temperature below 100°C in the Pressure Suppression Chamber. 4 · Reactor cold shutdown, stable water level, offsite power is available. · No reactor coolant is leaked to the reactor containment vessel. · Maintain average water temperature below 100°C in the Pressure Suppression Chamber.Nothing to see here, move along, never mind.
This is insanity in real-time. WTF ????
Haha.. complete comedy. The list above looks like a pretty controlled situation but read the other news stories and you can see that the most damning fact of all is that they still don't know where this highly radioactive water/emission is coming from. You know - the stuff that burned the extremities of the workers who stepped in it.
>they still don't know where this highly radioactive water/emission is coming from.
Guessing it might be that radioactive thingy that's leaky.
