Well actually it has not been this bad in a long time, so I thought I would take a picture of the reactor units when I saw it happening. <span style="color: red;"><b>Time here is 1:50 JPT - Todays Date 2013-7-29.</b></span><br />

You usually see some buildings or can make out the reactors and cranes when there is heavy fog, but this time they are all engulfed in this steam of fog whatever you want to call it.<br />

The crisis that radioactive water is leaking into the groundwater is not anything new. But the amount of contamination is hard to comprehend.<br />
<br />
<i>"Asahi Shimbun: <span style="color: red;">A liter of the water was also found to contain 750 million becquerels of radioactive substances that emit beta rays, such as Strontium.</span>"</i><br />
<i>"EXSKF: 5,000 cubic meters, or 5,000 tonnes of this water is in the trench. <br />Note: <span style="color: red;">5,000 cubic meters of water is equal to 5 million liters.</span> </i><br />
<span style="color: red;"><b><i>One liter was found to contain 2.35 Billion Becquerels of Cesium. </i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><i>If this concentration is consistent, the total amount would be nearly 12 Quadrillion Becquerels of cesium in this one trench."</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Now when we have heavily contaminated groundwater there is for a certain fact the reactor core is exposed to this water. And considering the amount of contamination found in the water there is a high probability that the reactor core or should we say molten reactor corium is the cause for the steam seen here.</b></span></span><br />

We get to hear about what he thinks <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">is the sinister and horrifying reason</span></b> behind why the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Japanese are now trucking and burning radioactive materials from Fukushima all over Japan</span></b> even in the south. He talks about what we can do for the children and what is being done to help them. And also how he has been working on making supplements to block the absorption of the Cesium and the absorption of the Strontium 90 and the Plutonium, Uranium.<br />
<br />
I have transcribed the whole 10 min video for you.<br />
<br />

<br />
The Fukushima Catastrophe is probably the worst nuclear disaster in human history, and certainly worse than Chernobyl. The contamination from Fukushima has gone as far south as Tokyo I have measured it personally in air filters from cars. At least 12 different air filters from cars were sent to me, and some of them from the south of Tokyo and many of them 100 km away from Fukushima and they contain very large amounts of radioactivity in them. High levels Cesium 134 and 137. So we can conclude without any doubt that that area up to 200 km maybe more, away from the catastrophe site has been seriously contaminated with radionuclides. Now if the cars are breathing this material and so are the people and so are the children. And so the children will be contaminated with radioactivity, we have recently heard that the Japanese government have been doing whole body counting. That is to say they have been putting some people inside a monitor to see how much Cesium is inside them. And apparently the levels of Cesium are sufficient for them to say that there is no problem, that there not going to be any increases in ill health. At the same time we hear, I hear reports from Japan from mothers of children who say that they are showing all the signs of contamination with Cesium that were also found by my colleague Professor Yuri Bandazhevsky after Chernobyl in the areas of Belarus that were contaminated similarly with this substance Cesium 137.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now what it did there was that it went into the hearth muscle and it caused conduction difficulties and destroyed hearth muscles so the <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">children in Belarus was suffering hearth attacks and arrhythmias</span></b>, that’s when the hearth doesn’t beat properly. And of course later on in life they die young from hearth disease because the hearth cells don’t replicate themselves, the heart cells you get all of you’re hearth cells all at once, you get maybe 1% increase in heart cells per year but over the period of time we are talking about there is going to be no replacement for the cells that were damaged by the Fukushima catastrophe in the children. So we have two different points of view here, we have the point of view of the Japanese government who are ignoring it, who are making these superficial measurements of Cesium in the whole bodies of the children and the people, and they are saying that these concentrations are not sufficient to cause any problems, well of course this is an argument that’s going on and on. It’s like a tennis match, it goes backwards and forwards you know the independent scientists say that there is a problem and the government and the nuclear scientists say it’s no problem.<br />
<br />
<br />
Of course the real problem is that we have to do something about it, I mean I am a father, I have 7 children I have 11 grandchildren and I cant sit back and just let this go on with us in some sort of silly tennis match, between us and the pro-nuclear scientists who are trying to save the industry from collapse. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">And all the time the children are getting more and more sick and they are building up this level of radioactive damage which will result in them getting sick and dieing with cancer, hearth disease, a whole range of illnesses that were all discovered after Chernobyl.</span></b> And it’s not as if this is something new, we know what is going to happen, we absolutely know what is going to happen, we have looked very closely at the health effects of the people who where exposed to these same radionuclides after the Chernobyl accident in the same quantities. Not as many people I have to say which is why Fukushima is a worse disaster. <br />
<br />
<br />
So I decided we have to do something an I have contacted, I was contacted by some people in Japan, who said what can we do. So instead of just moaning about it we decided to do something, now there are actually something we can do. The first thing that we can do is we can actually measure the radionuclides ourselves because frankly we do not believe what the Japanese government are coming out with, we don’t think that they are right. I mean I have measured more radioactivity in a car air filter than they are measuring in a child and the car breaths air in the same way as a child breaths air so I don’t really believe what they are saying. That’s the first point. So we need to have independent testing. And secondly we need to try and do something about these children who are being contaminated, there are two things that we can do. <br />
<br />
<br />
The first thing is we can take them away from the areas of contamination and put them somewhere where there is reasonable safe, but that leads us to another problem because what’s happening now what I have been told is that <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">the Japanese government are trucking radioactive material from the Fukushima disaster area where it is contaminated all over Japan.</span></b> And even as far south as the south of Japan, we are now getting reports of radioactivity, radioactive material taking all the way to the south of Japan to be burnt. Now what possible reason could there be for burning it as far away as that. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">I tell you the reason, it’s really quite sinister and horrifying</span></b>, there reason is this. That eventually when these children start die from Leukemia from other cancer from hearth disease from whatever, their parents are going to want to go to court. They are going to want to sue the Japanese government and they are going to want to have to say that in order to do that these, in order to do that these children were contaminated and that’s why they got high levels of cancer. But of course the only way that they can say that they got high levels of cancer is to have a control group in an area that’s not contaminated, for example the south of Japan. So I believe that the project to take this material and to burn it all over Japan is to destroy all of Japan, this to <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">increase the cancer rate in the whole of Japan in so that there will be no control group to which that you can compare these children in the Fukushima area.</span></b> So that’s that point. So we want to take the children away anyway into some safe area that’s what we want to do.<br />
<br />
<br />
But the second thing that we can do and this is also quite important is that we can try and block the material we can try and block the absorption of the Cesium and the absorption of the Strontium 90 and the Plutonium and the other substances that are not being measured incidentally. We have to wait a minute now because there is a train passing. I’m sitting on a children’s playground here in Sweden this is in Stockholm, and I decided to talk to you from here from <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Stockholm where there is a significant amount of radioactivity as well I have to say in the Baltic Sea</span></b> I measured this myself but that’s another question.<br />
<br />
<br />
So the second thing that we can do is to try and block the ingress of the radioactivity into the child’s body, now we know that we can do this with Iodine because <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Iodine goes to they Thyroid gland,</span></b> we give them <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">stable Iodine</span></b> at least we are supposed to,<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"> it turns out that the Japanese government didn’t,</span></b> and then it stops the bad Iodine the radioactive Iodine from binding to the same sites. And you can do the same thing with the other radionuclides, for Uranium and Plutonium and Strontium 90 which are the most serious and all of <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">which they are not measuring incidentally</span></b> and non of which can be measured with a whole body counter because they are Alpha emitters and not Beta emitters. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">We can block that attachment to the DNA by giving large amounts of Calcium and Magnesium</span></b>, which binds to the DNA and keeps the Strontium and the Uranium of the DNA.<br />
<br />
<br />
So that’s one thing that these children can do, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">they can take a tablet every day of stable Calcium and so we are going to produce tablets which contain stable Calcium which we will supply cheaply</span></b> at the cost of production to parents of these children so that they can take these tablets and block the ingress of these substances. And we are also working on another tablet, which will block the ingress of Cesium 137. Now in order to do this <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">we have set up an organization in Japan called the Christopher Busby Foundation for the Children of Fukushima</span></b> and it has a website and it’s all in Japanese and it’s all been done by a colleague of mine who contacted me from Japan called James Grand. In addition to this <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">we are going to purchase a large number of highly sophisticated radiation measuring devices from Europe</span></b> from suppliers in Europe and suppliers in the Ukraine and we are going to <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">make these devices available to the parents and children to measure the concentration of these substances in the food and also to supermarkets</span></b> and we will measure the substances ourselves. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">We will set up a laboratory in Japan so that the people can bring these substances to the laboratory and find out the truth about the concentration of radionuclides in these substances.</span></b> So these are the things that we want to do and we want you to help us in any that you can. This is an operation to save the children of Fukushima because we do not believe that the Japanese government is doing anything to save the children of Fukushima, they are operating on a principle, which is of the principle of saving not the children of Fukushima but the international nuclear industry, and this is disgraceful.

* Entergy fighting for reactor survival<br />
<br />
<div>NEW YORK, Aug 2 (Reuters) - Vermont health regulators said on Tuesday they found a fish containing radioactive material in the Connecticut River near Entergy's (ETR.N) Vermont Yankee nuclear power plant which could be another setback for Entergy to keep it running.</div><div><br />
</div><div>The state said it needs to do more testing to determine the source of the Strontium-90, which can cause bone cancer and leukemia.<br />
</div><div>Vermont Governor Peter Shumlin wants the 620 megawatts reactor shut in March 2012 when its original operating license was to expire.<br />

</div><div>"I am asking my Health Department to keep a close eye on test results moving forward to determine the extent of any contamination that has reached the environment."<br />
</div><div>New Orleans-based Entergy, the second biggest nuclear power operator in the United States, however wants to keep the reactor running for another 20 years under a new license.<br />
</div><div>Entergy filed a complaint in federal court to block the state from shutting the reactor next year.<br />
Officials at Entergy were not immediately available for comment.<br />
</div><div>"One finding of (Strontium-90) just above the lower limit of detection in one fish sample is notable because it is the first time Strontium-90 has been detected in the edible portion of any of our fish samples," the Vermont Department of Health said on its website.<br />
</div><div>The Health Department said it did not know how the Strontium-90, which is both naturally occurring in the environment and a byproduct of nuclear power production and nuclear weapons testing, got into the fish.<br />
</div><div>"We cannot associate low levels of Strontium-90 in fish in the Connecticut River with Vermont Yankee-related radioactive materials without other supporting evidence," the report said.<br />
</div><div><b>MORE ANALYSIS NEEDED</b><br />
The Health Department asked for additional analysis on the fish obtained on June 9, 2010 that contained the strontium-90 and also on other fish samples.<br />
</div><div>These analyses will take weeks to complete, the Health Department said, noting it is working to obtain additional fish for testing much farther upstream in the Connecticut River.<br />
</div><div>The Connecticut River divides Vermont and New Hampshire before running through Massachusetts and Connecticut. Vermont Yankee is located in Vernon, Vermont, near the border between Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts about 110 miles northwest of Boston.<br />
</div><div>Strontium-90 and other human made radioactive materials come from the fairly constant release of very low quantities from medical and industrial users of radioactive materials, and from infrequent releases such as above-ground nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s, and the nuclear reactor accidents at Chernobyl in 1986 and Fukushima in 2011.<br />
</div><div>Radioactive materials are nothing new for Vermont Yankee. In January 2010, Entergy said it discovered a radioactive tritium leak at the plant. The company stopped that leak in March 2010 but not before the state Senate, which was then led by now Governor Shumlin, voted to block the state from allowing the plant to run beyond March 2012.<br />
</div><div>Vermont is the only state in the nation with a say on whether a nuclear plant within its borders can operate. The state gained that right, which Entergy is now challenging in federal court, when it agreed to allow Entergy to buy the plant in 2002. </div><div><br />
