Earthquake Tsunami Nuclear Events - ETNE

Fifty years ago science discovered how to duplicate a nuclear reaction, one end result gave us the ability to heat water to produce steam. Steam driven generators produce electricity and so nuclear electricity generating stations were born.

Today we have proliferated nuclear generating stations which dot the landscapes of the world.

The basic design of nuclear steam boilers has not changed since inception of this wild eyed and ill-conceived technological "advancement."

Any advantage ascribed to one of these "doomsday" contraptions is handily overwhelmed by their ability to snuff all life of the planet. I won't even debate the issue--it is a guaranteed path to irreversible demise of all specie on the planet if and when the fallout from the process gets loose into our air, food and water.

I am told (of course) the risks are negligible, aren't they always when reckless profit is to be made?

The average cost of building a nuclear reactor to boil water to make steam to spin a generator turbine has risen to about $5 billion capital cost plus operating costs... think about how to boil water, then think of nuclear Armageddon.

A nuclear reactor - TO BOIL WATER! Need I say more?

The cost to the planet when one of these nuke water boilers goes awry is incalculable since atomic radiation damage is almost impossible to quantify.

We are assured by corporate interests, public servants and their sycophant pocket science persons that risk from nuclear accident is a chance in a million and extraordinarily remote as chances go.

Building these nuclear generators in an area called the "ring of fire" carries with it a feeling of discomfort, what could possibly go wrong with that picture?

Unfortunately we may find out rather quickly...
Emergencies declared at 5 Japan nuclear reactors
Radioactive leak detected at one; thousands evacuated
TOKYO — Japan declared states of emergency for five nuclear reactors at two power plants after the units lost cooling ability in the aftermath of Friday's powerful earthquake. Thousands of residents were evacuated as workers struggled to get the reactors under control to prevent meltdowns.
In the interests of situational awareness, be advised that yet another deadly cloud of atomic fallout is likely over the next few months, will you be properly informed of where and who will be contaminated?

I doubt it, these matters always seem to get glossed over.

You may want to keep an ear to the ground and an eye on the jet stream winds and try to understand where this ill-wind blows.



There have been over 2000 Nuclear explosions since 1945. Explain global warming, cancer and disease outbreaks and extinctions to me again please!



Stay tuned...

Women and children overboard

It's the  Catch-22  of clinical trials: to protect pregnant women and children from the risks of untested drugs....we don't test drugs adequately for them. In the last few decades , we've been more concerned about the harms of research than of inadequately tested treatments for everyone, in fact. But for "vulnerable populations,"  like pregnant women and children, the default was to exclude them. And just in case any women might be, or might become, pregnant, it was often easier just to exclude us all from trials. It got so bad, that by the late 1990s, the FDA realized regulations and more for pregnant women - and women generally - had to change. The NIH (National Institutes of Health) took action too. And so few drugs had enough safety and efficacy information for children that, even in official circles, children were being called "therapeutic orphans."  Action began on that, too. There is still a long way to go. But this month there was a sign that ...

Austerity-A Fancy Word for Destitute.

The reason for this post is not for the folks who have been caught in the first wave of personal economic hard reality, but the next wave. Regardless of the optimism espoused by grinning leaders and sycophant press, we are entering the final stage of global economic collapse. It began in 2008 and was forestalled for five years with fudge putty, but the weight of global indebtedness cannot be propped any longer and the final crunch is imminent. Austerity measures herald the final throes.  Indications of coming austerity.   Austerity measures are the final last ditch effort, futile or not! Back in the day many of us old-timers went through periods of "hard-times". In retrospect I realize there is no comparison to yesteryear hard times and today's version. Back then, expectations were never very high for the working class, there were no sophisticated systems or conveniences anyway. In fact the difference between being "set" or not was about having treats or not. Si...
