Radioactive Cesium Content In Japan Sea Water 25 Times Limit, Radioactive Iodine At 127 TImes Maximum Allowed
According to Kyodo, the Fukushima sea fallout is getting material enough to where the sea soon won't need a blacklight to glow in the dark:
- Kyodo says radioactive caesium found in sea water 24.8 times limit
- Kyodo says radioactive Iodine found in sea water 126.7 times limit
The only logical solution is for the Japanese ministry of deadly disinformation to raise the radioactive Cesium sea water limit by 25 times, and that of Iodine by 127 times. And all shall be well.

I plan so devious its bound to work! MUHAHAHAHA
Mine is an evil laugh.
Anne Coultier doesn't mind, and now she gets the chance to visit and report from Japan. Alex Jones has offered her airfare to the Island State.
Would love to see her swimming next to Fukushima.
Ann Coulter is personally invited to my house where she can crawl around in my garden on all fours using her cock to plow a furrow in which to plant my soon to irradiated green beans.
Thanks Cooper, I just pissed my pants
Thanks for that image. I just threw up in my mouth a little.
FTW, literally.
Strong work Coop!
She'll be right over after her Fukushima mineral water high-colonic.
Ann Couter would be particularly susceptible to radiation, given her ginormous adam's apple.
She's like ET in a wig.
Stop, you're killing me Colonel!
ET, in a wig, with a big ole' irradiated cock, plowing glowing fields of grain and veggie's!! Epic
I haven't stopped laughing in way too long... this is some of the funniest shit I've ever read on this site. Go Colonel.
Go Go Godzilla!!

Are those dots at 128º the used ones? If so, this is really bad news...
I don't know, unfortunately. The German newspaper "Die Welt" didn't comment on this picture - just "thermal image fukushima blabla - reactor no. 3".
Not that it has any useful information beyond 'Under Survey', here is the 'official' page of background radiation readings from throughout Japan:

So what's the story with the West coast? Radioactive materials should have started hitting by now. We know neither the strength nor the area affected.
Anyone with answers?
Some elevated numbers moved across the West coast a couple of days ago, but this was before the epa site was readily available to the general public, so one was taking the word of people who claimed to have access.
The claims seem to prove out however, as the EPA has since made the site available to the general public without having to implant a microchip in your left testicle to gain access; numbers were elevated this morning in the midwest. This rise in the numbers seemed to coincide with rainfall??? (just guessing, but the rain has moved off, and the numbers have subsided)
The elevated numbers have not stayed that way. It seems that a cloud (for lack of a better word) passed over. When I dug my counter out, I never expected to find a damn thing. I will be monitoring consistently for a while now.
Also see below post
https://cdxnode64.epa.gov/radnet-public/showMap.do
The pertinent question is where were the samples taken. 100 yards off shore of the plant or 100 miles? Or Tokyo bay? Often it's not the answer you received but the actual question asked that's important.
Then of course there are the questions completely ignored......but that's another matter entirely.
Simple / excellent point cognitive - however what is disturbing is the fractured nature of the information , it does not inspire confidence.
My gut tells me a area of 50 miles from the plant will become a maritime / terrestrial wildlife park.
Radioactive Park Bitches.

And their building new homes right next to it as we speak. The Californian's migrating out to Colorado will never know....
is this true? i had a buddy who was a chemistry major back in the 80's who told me...but i digress...
There's the 903 area leakage and 2 plutonium fires in 1957 (40-500gm of 239/240 airborne) and 1969(<1gm of same).

In 77 or 78 I knew this guy. He had one of the original reports on West Valley NY. One of the sections stated that the waste was burried in fifty gallon drums, packing cases and CARDBOARD BOXES. That the ditches were twelve inches deep but runnoff was 20+.
That was deleted from later reports.
The guy I knew was scared shitless that someone would find out he had actually read, let alone possessed, a copy and TPTN would Silkwood him
http://www.factsofwny.com/westvalley/
I found out more than I wanted to know from a book I have called(growing up in the late 50s/early 60s upstate NY and NE were getting dosed from above ground tests);
"Secret Fallout: low-level radiation from Hiroshima to Three-Mile Island", by Ernest J. Sternglass
He wrote some papers on the subject as a nuclear physicist for the Naval Ordinance Lab.
Free download of his book here;

Nightime snorkling and scuba! No lights required.
I'm sure they swam right up to the exploded nuclear plant's beach and took a sample. Come on in the water's fine! All your gov't friends are doing it...
The water's a bit warmer than usual though. Wow that IS a shark with a frickin' laser beam on its head. Cool!
UHOH... he's coming this way...
The water also seems to be a bit warm here as well. Come on guys, who peed in the (spent fuel rod) pool?
My perception is that Kyodo has been alarmist throughout this event. Your question is very important, as are these:
junk me if you want, but when you call me in the control room and tell me you've found contamination, I can't do a goddamned thing about it until you answer questions 1, 2, and 4 at least, plus this one: what other forms of contamination were present, and in what concentrations? In other words, this information isn't actionable as is. It's just scary. Period. Which is the point, isn't it?
If you take dilution into account the half life is shorter
I have a question too CD. It may be obvious to everyone else, but if not, it needs to be asked.
"How is the radiation getting into the water?"
If they want us to stop speculating and sounding hysterical, they should be updating folks with real information.
WTF????
I have a question too...why is it all the smart people who always say to never believe a word of what any media or govt ever says, work so hard to believe what they say now?
so who should one believe - you or some of the other armchair quarterbacks around here?
gimme a break, most of the previous posteers said they need to know more about the sampling specs.
you guys especially George Washington have been hyperventilating ever since the eerthquake hit - talking up your book?
~rj
So why would we believe a government (Japan) that refuses to release the numbers anywhere near the site, and posts numbers on the low side of atmospheric for everywhere else? It's the believability factor here. It's trending negative.
No rjabele actually youre a liar, I've never commented since the earthquake, about the earthquake or anything else, in fact Ive been gone from ZH for over a week so I havent commented at all.
I don't care if you've been gone since LTCM - you did made a statement - and I disagreed with it
lump it.
~rj
I think it has more to do with people trying to figure out if they should be believed/disbelieved.
When information is scarce, or the information you receive is adulterated, more questions are generated than answers.
I am Chumbawamba.
As long as they tell us only pretty lies, we are justified in believing the worst.
I think its clear they have lost control of this thing. If there were a sensible plan B, we would know that by now.
All reasonable questions MsCreant.
I have come to the conclusion that media plays the same role as the left-right tennis match of politics. Never to inform, only to confuse and obfuscate. Sooner or later most people just throw their hands up in the air and tune it out. Mission accomplished.
Those of us left who want actual answers are a small minority and of no importance. Then the "officials" can control the unfolding story as well as the eventual "official" explanation.
@ Cog Dis
That was a Bullseye. The media has effectively lowered the brain function of their viewers to that of a lap dog.
They have just enough "cognitive" power to pee on command, eat when food is in front of them and not when they are hungry, and go fetch when ordered. Anything beyond that, they just look at you puzzled but with great focus followed by a 45 degree tilt of the head.
Then off to the next command. Immediately wiping out any previous thought or memory.
Bingo!! I just asked, pretty much the same question on another thread about the nuclear crisis... specifically:
I'm just gobsmacked by the blatant coverup, obfuscation and general assholishness of the Japanese gov't and TEPCO. I mean, here are just a few examples of what's got my 'radar' pinging;
1: Isn't this the second time that the J'Gov has raised the limit of 'acceptable' radiation levels?
2: The US took thermal images of the site but the J'Gov has blacked them out, refusing the release those.
3: The radiation levels near the reactor sites continue to be classified as "under survey" by the J'Gov.. "under survey"??? WTF? this is the most basic piece of information there is.
4: TEPCO and the J'Gov have NEVER release the temperature or pressure readings for the reactor sites... just occasional statements that they are 'elevated' or 'may' be increasing.
I am a firm believer that you can learn as much from what's NOT being said as from what is being said.. in this case, what's not being said speaks so much louder.
They don't mind people dying from a lack of info they just don't want them to panic.
Bingo! And to some extent, I can understand the bind they're in. What do you do with 120 million people stuck on an island that is glowing green?
Print Yen.
Maybe the radiation in the water indicates the use of exploded nuclear bomb(s) (aka a "natural" tsunami) & the 3-4 reactor "meltdowns" provide cover. ... who would know the difference?
i'm back-testing this one. i'll get back to you via "the usual sources" when i know more...
I think the sea currents along the east coast of Japan flow north, not south toward Tokyo.
So these readings are probably from near the plant, or north of it.
What I can't find out is how far down the ground water table is. I don't understand how to entomb without putting a floor underneath the whole are first -- but I assume that would have to be above groundwater ?
I don't think you can entomb without (1) separating the fuel rods to prevent recriticality, and then (2) defending groundwater by creating a new foundation under the whole area.
But if that gray smoke is uranium and plutonium oxide -- I guess that fire has to be stopped first.
God help them.
Fed delenda est.
I have no link to this, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that the plant is sitting on bedrock and that all Japanese plants by law must sit on bedrock. Something to do with the earthquakes and not wanting to site the plant on soil that might displace or crack during the quake. Again, I have no reference to this, just something I read early in this disaster.
Is it safe to assume that this close to the ocean (meaning on the edge) that the water table is at the same level, meaning sea level?
Yes, the water table near any body of water is at the same level as the water surface. Geomorphology 101 (or 102).
Who are the poor saps that have to draw straws to find out who does the entombing?
We have all the tech to do something like this:
http://www.smartplanet.com/technology/video/iron-man-robot-suit-gives-so...
except where the man is remote, and seeing everything that the "robot" sees in a head-up display.
It wouldn't really be a robot, it would be completely man-controlled.
Alternatively, build something like this, give it removable radiation armor so that a man can work inside that plant safely for ... 30 mins or whatever ... then throw the armor away and get new armor.
There's your BioRobots! That's how to get in there and separate the rods to prevent recriticality.
Hey, Raytheon! Want some good PR? Want to do your part to save Japan? We need 50 of these things, and we need them yesterday.
Fed delenda est.
The removable armor would be sheets of lead. I'm sure they have some inbred clones they jacked up gene sequence on somewhere on this planet we could use.

"Then of course there are the questions completely ignored......but that's another matter entirely."
You mean like, "What's the level at the Fukushima plant?"
"So sorry, batteries are dead in monitor. Please check later."
"Would you like some batteries?"
"So sorry. Monitor is broken also. Please check later."
"Would you like to borrow a monitor?"
"So sorry. The number you have dialed is not in service. Please check later."
"What about at the Onagawa plant?"
"So Sorry. Onagawa workers at Fukushima. Batteries also dead. Please check later."
Of course the levels are far below any dangerous point if you are more than 18 kilometers away. Trust Tepco, the Japanese and US Governments.
My other question would be why the radiation levels across much of the US upper Midwest this morning, (raining) were higher than every number "reported" across Japan, with the exception of Ibaraki.
LOL ah so funny.
I second your first. The classic three stooges run around.
where are you getting these higher radiation readings? I'm following several links and they all indicate normal or slightly above normal levels? Please share additional links!

i'm unable to download from EPA site.
Its raining here in AZ and i wonder what is in the rain--no hiking today!
Have you tried the "for the public" EPA site?
https://cdxnode64.epa.gov/radnet-public/showMap.do
Numbers have subsided substantially, but western SD still at 200 CPM (Down from over 320), western Nebraska at 120 ish..
At my house Upper Midwest, my counter read low 50's this morning, when normal background up until today never exceeded 25. The closest monitoring station east of me was reading low 80's.
These are obviously not dangerous levels, but the higher counts this morning were 6 times "normal" at least according to radiation network's data.
My only real point in bringing this up was that in the beginning, this radiation wasn't even going to get here, remember? And how are epa.govs readings 8-9000 miles away higher than Tokyo, 100 miles away?
Thank you. I'm sorry to be clueless but i cannot understand the significance of these numbers for Tucson AZ
Gamma Energy Range 10 Gross(CPM) 47
Gamma Energy Range 2 Gross(CPM) 2920
Gamma Energy Range 3 Gross(CPM 1575

Gamma Energy Range 6 Gross(CPM) 145
Gamma Energy Range 7 Gross(CPM 164
Gamma Energy Range 8 Gross(CPM 102
CAN SOMEONE HELP EXPLAIN WHAT THESE LEVELS INDICATE, PLEASE!
Those numbers are measuring gamma, and from what has been explained to me, they are cumulative and are within normal ranges. The very top number is measuring beta, which would be the iodine fallout, is above the column you are looking at. These are the numbers that have been running high.
If I am mistaken in this interpretation, I would appreciate anyone more knowledgable helping to explain it.
Thank you very much. I'm going to go force feed my kids sea weed again!
The numbers I've seen in the southwest aren't exceeding normal atmospheric radiation at all. Vegas area and east seems to be high, I've been told that area is just higher than elsewhere. Higher altitudes also run higher numbers.
If you look at radiation network, they say 30-60 is normal, and unless it goes above 130, it isn't much to worry about. Even 130 is just a value that calls for investigation.
Good luck with the kelp.
The devil with radioactive iodine, cesium, millisieverts -- there is but one salient point which must be stressed: the media owe investors an apology for hyping this event, which is now quite clearly under control. Laughable -- alarmists abound simply to sell newspapers and ad space on websites. Jim Altucher knows. The exposure to-date amounts to little more than a "dental x-ray." Now, BTFD, and desist from all this apocalyptic bombast.
http://finance.yahoo.com/tech-ticker/james-altucher-the-media-owes-every...
Sample was taken near the water outlet of the plant. It seems TEPCO only took one sample. 0.5 liter. They also found cesium-137.
http://ex-skf.blogspot.com/2011/03/fukushima-i-nuke-plant-radioactive.html
Now that they've restored power they'll be able to start pumping some serious quantities of sea water through the reactors and boost these numbers substantially.

It is time for all the forward thinking Japanese people to move to CA. There will never be a better time to buy. Take that insurance payout and come to our sunny shores. This message was not brought to you by Chase Bank.
I wouldn't consider you to be that good at forward thinking if you were Japanese and moved to another part of the world where a massive earthquake / tsunami combo could wreck nuclear power plants.

Or where your Radiation followed you.
Let's face it. When US immigration policies are opened to accept the ~35 million out of the area we'll know that HAARP was deployed.
The answer to Social Security's future, the upside down pyramid, is mass imports. The Indians(dot not woo-woo) failed because they reveal themselves as the slime scum that they are.
Let's try the Japanese.
Japanese may not have a fond memory of immigration to CA. The last time they did in great numbers, they ended up somewhere in Arizona or Idaho. At least for a while.

I spent a good portion of Saturday evening arguing with my dad's side of the family.
I finally got them to stop interrupting the lessons I was trying to teach when I told them to do a comparison between US now and WW2 Germany and they would realize that we are Hitler's wettest wet dream.
You might argue that our lizard overlords learned from the best?
If you are they type to argue such obvious points.... The comparisons are unmistakable.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. More fluoride for the sheeple!
It's kinda funny that Jews in America and Israel came closest to realizing 'Hitlers wettest dream' isn't it.
Than again Hitler was merely rephrasing many of the jewish inherent traits when he was writing his 'Mein Kampf' so maybe it' s not all the surprising after all
I've found that it is very difficult to convey such ideas to an older generation since accepting any of those ideas to be fact would shatter the pillars of their belief of what American supposedly is. It's unfortunate, yet sadly understandable. The best hope lays with the younger generation if they can be taught these things despite the brainwashing they get in school. It's a challenge to say the least...but one we must rise up to meet head on.
We must all be grateful that the economic toll isn't as bad as the human toll.

OK, I checked it out. How is this better than concrete and sand entombment? Cheaper maybe, but not as safe and there is a lot more maintenance if you have to keep the pumps going.
Water is a fast kill, doesn't require a bazillion helicopter dumps and won't crush the spent fuel into a blob. The first 10 feet of water will cool the reactors, the next 10 feet cool spent fuel, 10 more for good measure. Because it's a heavy earthen dike, it's quake resistent. Okay, it's a temporary fix. Add cement and aggregate by conveyer to make a very big block of permanent concrete.
What about containment from the bottom?
How will air drop sand and concrete contain bottom?
After Chernobyl the gubbamints increased the maximal allowed daily dose in Scandinavia.
I didnt check if they lowered the levels after, but due to slow half-life probably not, I know they are still monitoring levels though.
This is EXTREMELY BULLISH FOR CHEMOTHERAPY AND CANCER TREATMENT COMPANIES WORLDWIDE!!!!

I love the smell of cesium in the morning...Smells like...meltdown.
And soon we will see one of the Japanese leaders swimming in the ocean with his children and eating some local sushi stating come on in everythings fine..
Since had a black president swimming in the GOM to show there is no oil, then will the Japanese have a bald and sterile one swimming off Japan to show no radiation?
Obama needs to drop in, take a swim, and let us know that all is safe. Then eat some shrimp and tofu.
If I were in Hawaii on vacation, I would quietly gather my things, pay my bill at the hotel in full even though I'm cutting short may stay, and tiptoe to the airport and cross my fingers I got a seat and deal with my credit card legacy later.
Seriously? I live here. Winds don't normally come this far south. My old home is in the Pacific NW. That doesn't sound any better either.
I live here too, so I checked around and apparently the ocean currents generally follow the wind patterns, so it will end up in the Pacific Northwest/California first, then maybe catch us on the round trip back.

LOL! Tyler, you kill me, man! What a funny thing to put out there on merger Monday. On The Ministry of Truth [CNBC] just minutes ago, a criminal syndicate Wall Street banker just told me, specifically, that there is no bad news today.

@TruthInSunshine
Also, don't forget, that the bigger the hole we dig today, the more future economic activity we create for tomorrow. Bullish. Nevermind that being down 52-0 to the Packers in the first half is probably too much to overcome by the fourth quarter....
Is it true that there is over 1000 tons of uranium fuel rods at fukishima and there was a 100 tons at chernobyl?
don't know about Chernobyl, but total tonnage of spent fuel is probably well over 1000 tons. there was an official TEPCO report from around Nov. 2010 that came to the surface last week. it contained detailed tonnage calculations of waste and common pools. I can't find it at the moment, but if someone can repost it you'll find the best info there.
The report concluded that about 84% (my recall) of total storage capacity was being used. It went into dry container storage methods in great detail and appeared to be one of those glossy corporate publications designed to promote the notion that TEPCO was on top of the growing pile of waste.
The last numbers I saw (including spent rods) were:
Chernobyl 140 tons
Fukushima 4000 tons
Caesium-135 has a half-life of "only" 2.3 million years. No problem, nothing to see here. BTFD.

http://www.badmovies.org/movies/crabmonsters/
The giant crabs, a result of nuclear radiation, made a clicking sound; which in the dark of night was the only way you knew they were very close by. After all of us kids went to bed, thoroughly petrified by the visions of giant man-eating crabs, I awoke later in the dead of night by a repetitive clicking sound just above and behind the head of my cot. Horrified, I pulled the covers over my head, hoping it would provide protection against being seen and attacked. While the sound continued, I slowly drifted back to sleep and in the morning awoke dizzy headed, still cowering under the covers. I forgot why I was under the covers till I became aware of the clicking sound coming from a reciprocating fan sitting on a table at the head of my cot. I hadn't even noticed the fan in the room and someone must have turned it on after we had all gone to sleep. By the light of day, the clicking sound wasn't threatening at all. I knew no one would be able to relate to my ordeal -- you just had to experience it for yourself.
Similarly, our observations on the distant Fukushima disaster lack visceral context. It's one thing to tell you not to be concerned that long standing, government mandated radiation exposure limits have been raised "over there" when "over there" is 12000 miles away and quite another thing when it's only 12 miles away.
Speaking of contaminated sea water, any news on the new slick in the gulf? Surely our Coast Guard has enough experience by now to make a determination is less than 5 days.
I think the coast guard said it was chocolate syrup or something.
