Highly radioactive water seeping into the ocean from Japan’s crippled Fukushima nuclear plant is creating an “emergency” that the operator is struggling to contain, an official from the country’s nuclear watchdog said on Monday. This contaminated groundwater has breached an underground barrier, is rising toward the surface and is exceeding legal limits of radioactive discharge, Shinji Kinjo, head of a Nuclear Regulatory Authority (NRA) task force, told Reuters. Countermeasures planned by Tokyo Electric Power Co. are only a temporary solution, he said. Tepco’s “sense of crisis is weak, Tepco’s “sense of crisis is weak,” Kinjo said. “This is why you can’t just leave it up to Tepco alone to grapple with the ongoing disaster. Right now, we have an emergency,” he said. Tepco has been widely castigated for its failure to prepare for the massive 2011 tsunami and earthquake that devastated its Fukushima plant and lambasted for its inept response to the reactor meltdowns. It has also been accused of covering up shortcomings. It was not immediately clear how much of a threat the contaminated groundwater could pose. In the early weeks of the disaster, the Japanese government allowed Tepco to dump tens of thousands of tonnes of contaminated water into the Pacific in an emergency move. The toxic water release was however heavily criticized by neighboring countries as well as local fishermen and neighboring countries as well and the utility has since promised it would not dump irradiated water without the consent of local townships.

My mom died of pancreatic cancer in January 2012. I give responsibility to FUKUSHIMA.

My question at this point is Do you know of any infant or elderly deaths in the year following FUKUSHIMA MELTSOWNS ❓

So Lurker what your saying is now with this radiation meter we’ll know when to kiss our ass goodbye…..

We may have advavce notice of when the birds will be glowing in the night. Or timely notice of what has leaked onto I-75 from all those nukewaste transports.

I already have a dysfunctional thyroid and have been cautioned to minimize necessary exposure. My dentist has a thyroid collar but they don’t seem to know how to work around it.
Just had another EKG. Guess they havent broke the insurance co. yet.

So Lurker what your saying is now with this radiation meter we’ll know when to kiss our ass goodbye…..

Tried to preview and lost a big post :whistle:
Her goes the short version.

F’N Shadow Gov’t. Has compromised RADION LEVEL READINGS across the USA ever since FUKUSHIMA’s UNCONTROLLABLE MELTDOWNS BEGAN. I DUMMPED THE APP I HAD BEEN WATCHING FOR SOME TIME BECAUSE THEY DO NOT WANT US TO KNOW ANYTHING ❗
The spikes in INFANT & ELDERLY DEATHS that followed a year after Chernobyl Meld Down is probably just an ongoing increase added in with usual DEATH RATES ❗
ONLINE RADIATION READINGS became WORTHLESS hours after Fukushima Meltdowns began. Not to panic anyone, just expect more untimely INFANT & ELDERLY DEATHS EVERY YEAR. POPULATION CONTROL PERSONIFIED:!:

BUT NOW WE CAN BUY A GOOD RADIATION METER WITH ALARMS for a fraction of the cost in 2011.
Though most OnLine services are comprised BPEarthWatch.com has come up with a way to eliminate corrupt OWG interference.
With eventually thousands reporting via email, the updates may be slow but at least any abnormally high readings will not be automatically scrubbed out.

For little over $100 the GQElectronics 320+ (non WiFi-to minimizes tampering) looks to be the best deal.
Read up on it at BPEarthWatch.con first.

I ordered both to eventually determine if the WiFi unit gets compromised.

Seems new news up date guess earth is officially been FUKUSHIMAed!! :angrymob:

:8:

God help us Lurker…………

They should have entombed it in 2011…bad enough that it ejected it fuel cores all over the area, even worse to dump sea water on the reactor and let it go out to sea…Out of all the ways to boil water, this is the most retarded idea :angrymob: !! Speaking of retardation and mutations…….

God help us Lurker…………

WELL, 6 YEARS LATER……. AND FUKUSHIMA IS WORSE THAN EVER !!!
…….AND THE COVER UP IN THE NEWS IS BEGINNING TO COLLAPSE !!!
…….Hell, IT KILLED A ROBOT IN LESS THAN 1 HOUR OF EXPOSURE!
I would like to propose that we kick out all illegal immigrants to make room for a few million or so Japanese Survivors.

Then too, eventually we may want to fence off the pacific coast for a mile or two safety zone.
GOD help us feed everyone when the fish begin to die off. I don’t eat tuna anymore.

Yep, same critter. Thanks Pablo! I’ve been up to a lot in the last few years, though I’ve tried to keep tabs on this place.

As for radioactive elements from Fukushima in BC/ on the US west coast, yes, the reports are accurate. However, the activity is tiny, and very similar to the noise (residual radioactivity) from atmospheric tests in the 1960s. It’s so small that my detectors might not even be able to see it without extreme measures. Mind you, these are the ones that can detect the human body’s natural radioactivity from meters away! To give you an idea of exactly how tiny, the testing procedure (if this is data from WHOI) involves passing 10L of seawater over ion exchange resin, then placing the resin in a chamber shielded with roman lead (recently mined lead has natural radioisotopes present in it, the Roman lead has decayed down for ~1k years) and then monitored for between a few hours and a few days. The concentrations of Cs they are seeing are in the range of a 1-10mBq per liter. That means for every thousand liters of water you collect, between 1-10 Cs atoms will decay per second. In the same 1s time period, 14,000 atoms of natural potassium in that same 1000L of seawater will decay. Further, 4,400 atoms in your own body will decay! To match the natural radioactivity of the human body with Fukushima products on the west coast, you would have to gather at least 440,000 kilos (968,000lbs) of water. And that radioactivity is still only 1/10 of that little cesium source in the picture I showed earlier!

TL;DR: Yes, there’s radioactivity from Fukushima everywhere in tiny amounts. It’s not hurting anyone on the west coast.

Here’s an AWESOME AMA from some scientists at UCB where they talk about Fukushima: http://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/20b7v9/science_ama_series_were_professors_in_the/

Also, my offer still stands in regards to measurement. You have something you think is radioactive, I’ll measure it! Rocks, clocks, antiques, whatever.

Is this the ‘Critter’ that was here years ago as a ‘boy’ ?
Damn fine young man he was :8:

well, wouldn’t ya know it, Radioactive elements identified as FROM FUKUSHIMA has been discovered in British Columbia !!! Just when we began to relax and drop our pants to take a shit.

Us old timers don’t need fancy instruments to measure the probe when our own gov’t rams it you know where.

Iodine tablets anyone? :butkick:

Thank You Again Professor Critter ❗

No kidding, I’m enjoying the education 💡

While I can’t comment on the pharmacological uses of boron (not my field), I’d be happy to talk about its nuclear properties. To put it bluntly, boron is an extremely powerful absorber of neutrons due to its unique nuclear configuration. It’s cheap, readily available and nontoxic. As a result, it gets used in shielding, reactor shutdown (as a neutron absorber) and any place where you encounter neutron radiation and want to stop it. However, before I get into boron’s neutron capture properties, I’d like to bring everyone up to date on neutron radiation.

Neutrons are a subatomic particle that have no charge, but are bound in the nucleus by something called the “strong force.” They are released only in very extreme events, such as when a nucleus splits into two (fission) or when two nuclei join to become one (fusion). The only places you’re likely to see neutron radiation are: a) In the core of a nuclear reactor b) Next to a high-energy particle accelerator (medical cancer therapy accelerators as well) c) In a nuclear explosion or d) In the upper atmosphere from cosmic rays. Neutron radiation is not seen in large quantities in fallout or debris from nuclear accidents (Chernobyl/Fukushima). Further, neutrons are odd in that they’re not shielded well by dense materials. Normally when one thinks of radiation shielding, the first thing that comes to mind is lead. The best thing to shield neutrons, however, is a hydrogen rich material with a neutron absorber added in. The mechanics of this has to do with momentum transfer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_moderator#Moderation).

Now on to boron. Natural boron contains two isotopes (nuclei that have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons), B-10 and B-11. Boron-10 (5 protons, 5 neutrons) has a “large neutron cross-section.” Translated to more regular terminology, this means its nucleus is arranged in a manner making it very susceptible to absorbing free neutrons to become B-11 (5 protons, 6 neutrons). At low energies, the neutron cross section (ability to absorb neutrons) for B-10 is thousands of times higher than B-11 (or most other nuclei). Though a few other elements have similar properties in terms of absorption cross-section, they also emit gamma rays (“capture gammas”) when they encounter neutrons. B-10, however, does something unique. Just after the capture, the newly formed B-11 nucleus has so much excess energy that it breaks apart into a helium-4 nucleus and a lithium-7 nucleus. Both of these stop very rapidly, and emit no gamma rays.

TL;DR: B-10 soaks up neutrons because of a unique nuclear configuration. Instead of emitting gamma rays, it breaks up into smaller nuclei that do no harm outside the shielding.

Critter,

What all are the effects of adding Boron to the nuclear reactor water during a manual shutdown ❓

Such as the Salem Delaware Unit 2 that dropped a control rod out of alignment during regular tests so they did a manual shutdown and added Boron to the reactor water.

Boron seems to be a life saver. I heard that Hawaiian dairy farmers used Boron to reduce radiation in milk. And I personally supplement my diet with Boron for pain management.

Can you enlighten us on the radiation interaction of Boron ❓

Does anyone else have a medicinal use for Boron ❓

Any time! Feel free to send me any samples you want to test.
