Fukushima Disaster - Of Stable Doors & Lost Horses

The old adage refers to the futility of closing the stable doors AFTER the horses have escaped.

Last of Japan's 50 reactors goes off-line--announced today.

Before I properly begin I would like to express the sentiment that the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster which was precipitated by inadequate protection from easily predicted Earth Quakes and subsequent Tsunami waves will eventually be known as the zenith of man-caused disaster--in that untold very long term damage on a global scale will eventually be acknowledged and cited to be the worst carnage inflicted by the madness of mankind.. So vast is the ongoing emission of deadly radiation it may be decades before the full extent of the travesty is known.

Japan this weekend became a nuclear-free nation for the first time in more than four decades, at least temporarily.
This unusual circumstance was prompted by Japans' citizens who have lost complete faith and trust in their government and corporate masters. While closing all of the plants is a small step in the right direction, (if a tenable, sustainable  future is desired,) it does not address the ongoing concern presented by the volatile and ongoing disaster unfolding within the bowls of the seriously crippled nuclear facility which is yet still in various stages of collapse and meltdown.

The order of magnitude of this latest insanity is far and away beyond compare with any other nuclear "accident", and experts agrees there is no known solution to what is unfolding... in particular with plant #4 which some accounts say is in imminent danger of final catastrophic failure.

In the meantime, since the disaster began, an invisible stream of deadly radiation has been circumnavigating the globe while untold streams of highly radioactive liquid is pouring into the ocean.

The entire globe is now peppered with these "doomsday" time-bombs while at the same time it is readily acknowledged that the majority of them are situated in disaster prone locations and are poorly equipped to withstand the rigors known to threaten these abysmal examples of man's folly. Nuclear energy is a tempting solution for indifferent profit driven corporations and governments but represent generations of misery for citizens if not total obliteration of life as we know it. This is no small dilemma to contemplate.

Any basic form of gain -v- risk analysis would shut them all down arbitrarily.


There are no "small" or irrelevant nuclear incidents--they are all guaranteed to threaten life sustainability - period! Even though many advocate continuing down this certain path of decimation, surely common sense tells us it is shear madness and should be universally stifled--the sooner the better.

Unless of course you happen to subscribe to mass population reduction as postulated by various eugenics inspired elitist factions. State your case and confirm your position to us--please.

Beyond Prophecy...: Earthquake Tsunami Nuclear Events - ETNE
Mar 11, 2011

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.



Stay tuned...

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...

Terrifying Arctic methane levels

A peak methane level of 3026 ppb was recorded by the MetOp-B satellite at 469 mb on December 11, 2021 am. This follows a peak methane level of  3644 ppb  recorded by the MetOp-B satellite at 367 mb on November 21, 2021, pm. A peak methane level of 2716 ppb was recorded by the MetOp-B satellite at 586 mb on December 11, 2021, pm, as above image shows. This image is possibly even more terrifying than the image at the top, as above image shows that at 586 mb, i.e. much closer to sea level, almost all methane shows up over sea, rather than over land, supporting the possibility of large methane eruptions from the seafloor, especially in the Arctic.  Also, the image was recorded later than the image at the top with the 3026 ppb peak, indicating that even more methane may be on the way. This appears to be confirmed by the Copernicus forecast for December 12, 2021, 03 UTC, as illustrated by the image below, which shows methane at 500 hPa (equivalent to 500 mb). Furthermore, ...

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 ...
