Nuclear
Doom
Hot
Particles - Slow Death - Cancer
|
|
Here
in the above video we are looking at nuclear hell on earth, a night film
of the radioactive steam that continues to rise from Fukushima 24 hours a
day. Arnie Gundersen, a former nuclear power industry executive, is one of
the experts who has been saying from day one that the nuclear crisis in
Japan was much worse than they were telling us.
|
|
He
was absolutely correct. Finally, three months later we are getting some
numbers on what the real dangers are. And finally we can begin to
understand the enormous cover-up of the nuclear doom that is reaching
lungs all over the west coast of America, Canada, Alaska, Hawaii and at
least half of Japan! For infants it’s a terrible valley of death we have
created for them. As we shall see for years all of them have been born
with already polluted bloodstreams and now the very young ones are dying
in greater numbers on the west coast of the United States since Fukushima
blew up.
|
|
After
the first week, officials had enough information to call for evacuation of
a wide area in Japan and also Hawaii, Alaska and the entire west coast of
North America. They really should have evacuated all of
northern Japan and also the west coast but that was almost as impossible
as evacuating the entire planet or the entire northern hemisphere.
|
|
Evacuation
of planet earth might be the best way for humanity to avoid the terrible
nuclear, heavy metal and chemical toxicity we are now facing all at the
same time. Avoiding exposure is always the best plan but there is no way
to avoid breathing in air contaminated with tiny hot particles. Inhalation
issues are much more frightening than ingestion issues because you can
pick and choose what you eat and drink but you can't buy bottled air.
|
|
Nuclear
Toxicity Syndrome is about how to survive in nuclear and chemical
hell. But one cannot do what is necessary to survive hell if a person
doesn’t know they are living in one. It just keeps getting worse by the
day and now we have Fort
Calhoun nuclear plant outside Omaha, Nebraska on emergency alert as
first fire and now flooding threatens to overwhelm yet another nuclear
facility. With Mother Nature now angry (in a most bitter sense) we are
really in more serious trouble than any of us would be comfortable
imagining. We knew nuke power plants were bad news but who would think
they would build them on fault lines or in flood zones?
|
|
|
|
On
CNN Arnie was asked, “So should people on the west coast be worried?
Gundersen side-stepped just a bit saying, “Well, the average person
breathes in about 10 cubic meters a day, and the filters out there for
April show that they were breathing in, per day, about five particles. Now
these are charged, which is why we call them ‘fuel fleas’ since they
latch onto lung tissue. We’re at a point now where you just can’t run
from the particles that are still in the air. We call them ‘fuel
fleas’ also because they’re incredibly small, smaller than the
thickness of your hair.”
|
|
That’s
Mr. Gundersen’s way of saying, yes, there are definite risks tied to
these “hot particles.” But that really does not answer the question. I
am afraid I will have to be brutally honest and be the bearer of really
terrible news. The information coming out about hot particle
concentrations near Fukushima, Tokyo, and now Seattle tell us that not
only should all those populations be worrying but their governments should
have been issuing evacuation orders months ago.
|
|
|
|
They
did not of course except in a too-tight circle around Fukushima, which is
getting 40 times more than in Tokyo or Seattle. Because of the jet stream
in April, after the large explosions that destroyed three reactor
buildings, it was as dangerous in Seattle and much of the west coast of
North America as in Tokyo.
|
|
It
only takes one of these
particles to trigger a cancer.
|
|
A
new report from independent scientists in Japan found a much greater
release of “hot particles” from the Fukushima power plant than
originally estimated. These include radioactive isotopes of cesium,
strontium, uranium, plutonium, cobalt-60 and many others. The
average person in Tokyo is thought to have inhaled 10 “hot
particles” per day throughout the month of April 2011. The
inhabitants of Fukushima were estimated to have inhaled 30-40 times more
than that—or up to 400 hot particles per day every day that
month. In Seattle, WA in the Northwestern U.S., it is estimated that the
average person absorbed five “hot particles” per day
during the month of April 2011, or 10 “hot particles” per day if they
are athletes who are working out. These invisible atomic particles become
lodged in your lungs, intestines, bone or muscle.
|
|
Professor
Christopher Busby, scientific secretary of the European Committee on
radiation risks, says that fuel rods at Fukushima got blown sky high, that
concentrations of uranium and plutonium particles had been detected in air
filters in Hawaii and the Marianas Islands by the end of April. So people
knew about this but they were not talking.
|
|
Gundersen
says, “Well, the radiation initially comes out as a big cloud of gases,
and that’s what you can measure with a Geiger counter. But now what
we’re finding are these things called ‘hot
particles,’ and in the industry it’s interesting
because in Seattle it didn’t go down much. It was about five particles a
day, because most of the time, as we talked about in April, the wind was
blowing toward the west coast.”
|
|
A
hot particle is defined as an alpha-emitting particle
that contains sufficient activity to deliver at least
1000 rem/yr to the surrounding lung tissue.
|
|
Severe
damage and disruption of tissue in the lungs are associated with exposure
to these types of nuclear particles. The most relevant lung experiment is
Bair’s Pu 23902 inhalation study with beagles. Twenty
of the 21 dogs that survived more than 1600 days post
exposure had lung cancer.
|
|
The
government recommends that the maximum
permissible lung particle burden for members
of the public be 0.2 hot particles, and the average
lung burden for members of the public be 0.07
hot particles, a factor of 3 less than the maximum.
|
|
Let’s
say that the official numbers were five
“hot particles” per day (10 if one is physically
active outdoors) for everyone on the west coast for the month of April.
Now let us be very conservative and say that this has dropped from the
initially high post-explosion levels at Fukushima down now to one a day.
At one a day that would still be 30 of these death particles a month. So
perhaps the average person has already absorbed in these three months
approximately 200 radioactive particles into their lungs and other
tissues. When you think that if even one of these 200 is plutonium, we
have to think in terms of millions of eventual cancer deaths!
|
|
|
|
All
of these hot particles will burn the local tissues.
They will compromise health in a myriad of ways. But doctors will stand by
not having a clue what to tell their patients to do except receive more
radiation diagnostic scans and more radiation treatments for cancer
patients. The allopathic paradigm will not survive Fukushima because it is
utterly ignorant about the approaches that stand a chance of helping us
get through this.
|
|
Gundersen
says, “That’s why we were warning you to wash your lettuce and things
like that. Now what that means is that these hot particles can lodge in
your lung or in your digestive tract or in your bone and, over time, cause
a cancer. But they’re way too small to be picked up on a large radiation
detector.” This is one of the reasons many people felt something wrong
in the first weeks after the radiation started pouring out of Japan.
Sensitive people will register such an invasion of hostile chemical and
radioactive toxicity even though radiation detectors will not.
|
|
Gundersen
understandably would have a hard time telling people how bad it really is.
He is not a doctor but he knows full well what only one particle of
plutonium will do to surrounding lung tissues. How does anyone tell 200
million people to get out of Dodge or tell them it’s already too late
since health-damaging contamination has already taken place?
|
|
Evacuation
is the only way to avoid continued exposure but hardly anyone perceives it
this way. I received a letter from someone in southern California today
asking if it was okay to go to Hawaii for a vacation. My real answer to
her was you should abandon not only your travel plans but also your home
in L.A. and move to the southern hemisphere.
|
|
“Geiger
counters simply cannot measure whether or not someone has ingested a hot
particle but we know they’re here because the air filters have measured
these radioactive particles and they’ve been found in the topsoil, in
water supplies and in the milk produced on both coasts of the U.S. This
suggests that the same would be true of the meat of any livestock raised
outdoors—and of the vegetables grown outdoors,” says Gundersen.

A
photograph of a monkey’s lung is shown, with a major depression at its
center where a “hot particle” is embedded in the tissue. This is a
photo of a “hot particle”, in this case a one-micron particle of
plutonium, and it shows the alpha tracks emitted from that particle in one
year. This particle has bombarded the surrounding tissue with radiation
and damaged it quite dramatically—just one particle. Gundersen says the
body will fight off an irritant such as this and it will usually win but
sometimes a hot particle will cause cancer. They will all put wear and
tear on infected people’s immune systems.
|
|
You
really do not want even one of these hot
little pieces of sun burning in your tissues.
|
|
Plutonium
in Lung Tissue: The dark, star-like image in the above photograph
(magnified 500 times) shows tracks from alpha particles radiating from a
speck of plutonium lodged in the lung tissue of an ape. Alpha radiation
from plutonium and other alpha-emitting radionuclides can be blocked by
skin or even a piece of paper but it is the most biologically destructive
form of ionizing radiation when the alpha-emitting substance is deposited
in the soft tissue of internal organs like the lung. The alpha tracks
shown above were captured over a two-day period.
|
|
These
hot particles result in an
intense but highly localized irradiation.
|
|
The
damaged number three reactor was in its first fuel cycle using MOX nuclear
fuel with plutonium. If this MOX
reactor goes into full meltdown spewing plutonium dust across Japan and
everywhere else, it is lights out via cancer for anyone who breathes the
stuff. The half-life
of various plutonium isotopes ranges from minutes to 80 million years.
Plutonium-239 has a half-life of 24,100 years meaning it takes that long
to lose half of its radioactive potency—nothing compared to depleted
uranium, which counts its time in billions of years. Uranium-235 has a
half-life of 700 million years. And caesium, which tends to go airborne
easily, has a half-life of 30 years.
|
|
The
fuel rods at all six reactors at the stricken Fukushima Daiichi complex
contain plutonium. Only six percent of the fuel rods at the plant’s unit
3 were a mixture of plutonium-239 and uranium-235 when first put into
operation. The fuel in other reactors is only uranium, but plutonium is
created during the fission process. This means the fuel in all of the
stricken reactors and spent fuel pools contain plutonium. Plutonium is
super nasty stuff, especially damaging to lungs and kidneys. Inhaling or
ingesting only one radioactive particle of
plutonium can cause cancer.

Valley
of Death
|
|
In
Nuclear Toxicity Syndrome you will read about the dangers we are all
facing, especially for those billions who live in the northern hemisphere.
If you have not noticed, things are getting real dangerous out there and
the media is going to make sure you are blindsided by events they will not
inform you of until it is too late.
|
|
This
is a tough book and it’s going to face you with some very frightening
information. Though the main thrust is nuclear radiation, we also will
look at mercury as an invisible chemical cloud that has contaminated
everything. Lead too is still a problem but they don’t inject lead into
babies or plant it in people’s mouths like they do with mercury, a heavy
metal more toxic than lead.
|
|
Would
you believe they are just now finally stopping the use of a drug (another
heavy metal actually) that farmers have given to chickens for decades.
Arsenic is being pulled off the market after federal scientists found a
potentially carcinogenic form of arsenic in the livers of animals treated
with the substance.
|
|
In
the past two and a half years thousands of workers, villagers and children
in at least nine of mainland China’s
31 province-level regions have been found to be suffering from toxic
levels of lead exposure, mostly caused by pollution from battery factories
and metal smelters.
|
|
In
many areas of the world people are already at death’s door from chemical
and heavy metal pollution. Pollution has reached a zenith and has gone
even higher with huge forest fires that have released huge amounts of
radioactive and chemically contaminated soil into the atmosphere. Then we
added mega oil disasters and now nuclear hell on earth. Is there any nice
way to refer to this disaster? Look at that video again above that is a
vision of what human darkness can conjure up.
|
|
We
might as well have shot ourselves in the head. There is nothing for us
humans to be proud of if we honestly sweep our minds across reality as it
is presenting itself to us this year. For infants it’s a terrible valley
of death we have created for them. As we shall see for years all of them
have been born with already polluted bloodstreams and now the very young
ones are dying in greater numbers since Fukushima blew up.

As the Wall Street Journal reports (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703806304576233221749626458.html),
the U.S. government has now admitted that radiation is being found in milk
from Washington state. They say it's "safe" to drink, of course.
That's the U.S. government for you: Irradiated milk is safe, but raw milk is
dangerous!
* The battle to save Fukushima is now over, as
Japanese officials admit the nuclear power complex must now be abandoned and
entombed (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1371793/Fukushima-nuclear-plant-entombed-concrete-Japan-admits-lost-battle-crippled-reactors.html?ito=feeds-newsxml).
The Dailymail published, "officials said it would mean switching off all
power and abandoning attempts to keep the nuclear fuel rods cool." The
problem with that, of course, is that there are already "three raging
meltdowns" under way as Dr. Kaku explains (below). If you abandon efforts
to cool the fuel rods, then an accelerated meltdown is "inevitable,"
says Dr. Kaku.
* Japanese nuclear experts now admit it will
require 20 years to decommission the Fukushima nuclear reactors. (http://english.kyodonews.jp/news/2011/03/82090.html)
* Cesium-137 has now been found 25 miles from
Fukushima at such dangerously high concentrations that they far exceed the
threshold of land abandonment used by the Soviet Union following the Chernobyl
catastrophe (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/31/world/asia/31japan.html?_r=1&partner=rss&emc=rss).
This is raising questions of whether the evacuation zone around Fukushima
should now be expanded.
* It has now been revealed that Japan's nuclear
disaster preparedness plans were written by complete morons. The entire
Fukushima power plant complex, for example, called for only one emergency
stretcher to be on-site, and only 50 protective suits (even though hundreds of
people worked there). Do you see shades of the TITANIC at play here? (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703712504576232961004646464.html)
* In a shocking video interview, physicist Dr.
Michio Kaku explained, "If it goes to a full-scale evacuation of all
personnel, it means that firefighters are no longer putting water onto the
cores. That's the only thing preventing a full-scale meltdown at three reactor
sites. Once they evacuate, then we past the point of no return. Meltdowns are
inevitable at three reactor sites, leading to a tragedy far beyond that of
Chernobyl, creating permanent dead zones in Japan." Watch that video at: http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=604AB3FA803FF3647DF6E34EC5E8C8A0
* Meanwhile, the Fukushima denialists
are in full swing, complaining that anyone talking about Fukushima's meltdown
is "fearmongering." One especially idiotic journalist in the UK
constructed a completely fabricated article today, claiming that "nobody
has suffered or will suffer any radiological health consequences [from
Fukushima]." How's that for a total denial of reality? This writer goes
on to say, "The nuclear power plants in the stricken region have suffered
less damage and caused less trouble to local residents than anything else that
was there." (I'm not linking to this source because they don't deserve
the attention, but trust me, this is from a major newspaper in the UK.) It
just goes to show you that these spin doctors will stop at nothing to try to
convince people that nuclear power is the safest thing in the world. There's
little question that most of these denialists are on the payroll of the
nuclear industry (or just hate the human race for their own twisted or demonic
reasons).
* As reported by the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/31/world/asia/31japan.html?_r=1&partner=rss&emc=rss),
"The level of radioactive iodine 131 in the waters off the Daiichi plant
continued to increase on Thursday, rising to 4,385 times the statutory
limit... The increases raise the possibility that contaminants from the plant
are continuously leaking into the sea."
* Fears about radioactive seafood are growing
as Japan's ocean waters are increasingly contaminated with very high levels of
radiation, now even exceeding the 3,300 times recently reported (http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Tainted-seafood-fears-spread-apf-166668369.html?x=0&.v=19).
But remember, everyone: There's nothing to
worry about according to your government! Don't be concerned about radiation. It's
invisible, so it must be safe!
At least, that's the message we're hearing from
many "official" sources. The FDA, laughably, thinks that drinking
radioactive milk in the U.S. is just fine for you, but drinking RAW milk is
extremely dangerous!

BBC

Radioactivity Basics - Facts About Radiation And
Radioactivity
With the current news that nuclear
fallout radiation from Japan has hit the US the US
Government
has put real time radiation monitoring data online. Keep in mind this is
government data. They are not
going to tell us the real truth.
As Of Today, Radionuclides From Fukashima Have Been Detected Over N.A.
Nuclear Physicist Kaku, who works with Con Edison of New York, claims it is
now a race against time to
get Fukashima buried. He believes that the breech in Reactor 3 trumps all
attempts at rescue, the
increasing core radioactivity splillage into free flowing water which burns
skin on contact, is increasingly
making everythinng unworkable at the site. That water....of course....will
drain directly into the N. Pacific Ocean.
As the company withdraws its men, the other two cores will be left unattended
and three meltdowns may result,
making Chernobyl look like kindergarten.
Here's today's story on the worsening radiation situation:
http://www.naturalnews.com/031836_radioactive_fallout_Fukushima.html
And here's a story from Ethan Huff about the
growing radioactive fallout contamination of the water, food and air:
http://www.naturalnews.com/031835_Fukushima_neutron_beams.html
Radioactive

downplay the severity of the release of radioactive material from Fukushima,

catastrophe that the nuclear...

unfolding nuclear meltdown situation, you might come away thinking that
everything is just fine and under...
Japan before and after
http://www.abc.net.au/news/events/japan-quake-2011/beforeafter.htm
Per the usual, just like with the BP spill when
the Government puts information online they bury
it so deep it’s very hard to find. Then once you do find what you are
looking for it takes a month
worth of Sundays to get through it all.
So this guy made an application that generates
thumbnails of all of the real time Japan nuclear
radiation monitoring data for the major US west coast cities every three
hours 15 minutes and
posts them right here. (After watching Fairbanks
Gamma Graph from jump from 1,000 CPM
to over 30,000 CPM in just minutes my initial assumption that these graphs
were slow moving
and discernible differences would take hours was proven incorrect. I now see
the graphs and
thumbnails will show spikes much faster than I anticipated). If 50 cpm equals
about .02 mrem/hr
hen 1000 cpm equals about .4mrem/hr which is still low but significant.
This will allow you to quickly check the status
of all active EPA radioactive fallout monitors
at once on this single. As more monitors come online I will update the app to
include data
from those monitors.
Update: Looks like this is up just
in time as independent
radiation monitoring has just gone offline.
Keep in mind though this is Government supplied/censored data.
You can click on the individual thumbnails to

RadStickers, as little as $2 each.
The RadSticker is an inexpensive citizen's dosimeter which could minimize
panic in the event
of a radiological incident. The downside is there is a waiting list now
to get one and it only measures
large doses. Available at http://www.ki4u.com/products1.php
Has 8 shadings from 0 Rads to 400 Rads.
Refer to chart in main 3-17 newsletter to
put dose versus effects into perspective. This company also
carries the www.NukAlert.com
Nuke Alert key chain monitor. They also carry Potassium Iodide and
Thyrosafe iodine sources. And geiger counter meters but the one I have , a
CDV-720 only measures
in Rads. The smallest mark on it would measure 100 millirads.
If you can measure anything, you are in
big trouble. Do a google search for geiger counters to find ones that have
more meaningful scales, like
measuring in 0 - 1 millirem or millrads for example. Remember the difference
between radiation and
contamination. Contamination is the flourlike fallout particles that float
down and settle out which contain
radioactive atoms emitting alpha, beta, and gamma radiation as they attempt to
stabilize out. Depending
upon the isotopes involved these can have halflives (the time required for
half of it to decay out) in the
millions and billions of years which means practically speaking, they will
never stabilize out
and will continue to emit radiation for as long as they are
present. The half-life
of various plutonium isotopes
ranges from minutes to 80 million years. Plutonium-239 has a half-life of
24,100 years meaning it takes
that long to lose half of its radioactive potency—nothing compared to
depleted uranium, which counts
its time in billions of years. Uranium-235 has a half-life of 700 million
years. And cesium, which tends
to go airborne easily, has a half-life of 30 years. It's why farmers in the UK raise sheep
and cows that are radioactive. They eat grass which contains fallout particles
from Chernobyl which are
still radioactive. The grass takes the particles up from the soil. The
radiation emitted from them can never
be stopped. That's why it is so important to not injest these
internally. If these particles settle out on your
skin, they can be washed off, but if you injest them internally, they are
virtually there forever, although some
can be chelated out by using clay and other chelating agents.
From http://www.ki4u.com/products1.php you can also buy a pocket dosimeter and charger for about
$110 (the charger is
$65, the dosimeters are $45 each). But again these measure high doses only. These
can tell
you what your accumulated radiation exposure is over short periods of time. A good explanation
of
what these devices can measure is found at http://www.radmeters4u.com/
Lots of good information at this site.
For example:
Q: What's the Difference Between Alpha, Beta
and Gamma Radiation?
A: Everything in nature would prefer to
be in a relaxed, or stable state. Unstable atoms undergo nuclear processes
that cause them to become more stable. One such process involves emitting
excess energy from the nucleus. This process is called radioactivity or
radioactive decay. "Radiation" and "radioactivity" are
often confused, the proper relationship is that "radioactive atoms emit
radiation."
The three main types of nuclear radiation
emitted from radioactive atoms are:
 | Alpha: These are actual particles
that are electrically charged and are commonly referred to as alpha
particles. Alpha particles are the least penetrating of the
three primary forms of radiation, as they cannot travel more than four to
seven inches in air and a single sheet of paper or the outermost layer of
dead skin that covers the body will stop them. However, if alpha particle
emitting radioactive material is inhaled or ingested, they can be a very
damaging source of radiation with their short range being concentrated
internally in a very localized area. |
| Beta: These are also actual particles
that are electrically charged and are commonly referred to as beta
particles. Beta particles travel faster and penetrate further than
alpha particles. They can travel from a few millimeters up to about ten
yards in open air depending on the particular isotope and they can
penetrate several millimeters through tissue. Beta particle radiation is
generally a slight external exposure hazard, although prolonged exposure
to large amounts can cause skin burns and it is also a major hazard when
interacting with the lens of the eye. However, like alpha particles, the
greatest threat is if beta particle emitting radioactive material is
inhaled or ingested as it can also do grave internal damage. |
| Gamma: Gamma rays are similar to
x-rays, they are a form of electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays are the
most hazardous type of external radiation as they can travel up to a mile
in open air and penetrate all types of materials. Since gamma rays
penetrate more deeply through the body than alpha or beta particles, all
tissues and organs can be damaged by sources from outside of the body.
Only sufficiently dense shielding and/or distance from gamma ray emitting
radioactive material can provide protection. |
Bottom Line: All three of the
primary types of radiation above can be a hazard if emitted from radioactive
material that was inhaled or ingested. Protected food and water and even a
simple inexpensive dust protector face mask can go a long ways to denying this
route of entry. However, for the penetrating gamma rays, it is essential to be
able to measure the strength of this type of radiation to then discover the
best protected shielding and distance options available. (See our FAQ entitled
Nuclear Blast &
Fallout Shelters FAQ for an understanding of nuclear bomb effects,
fallout, and effective sheltering options.) Also, in a shelter or home,
besides revealing the safest locations there, knowing the intensity of the
local gamma radiation outside will better indicate when it is again safe. Or,
safe enough to perform a brief essential chore outside. More information on
the specific physical damage caused by gamma radiation is below in the section
entitled: Which Survey Meter Would Be
Best For My Needs?
Example 2 - important information
Q: What's the Difference Between Roentgen, Rad and Rem
Radiation Measurements?
A: Since nuclear radiation affects
people, we must be able to measure its presence. We also need to relate the
amount of radiation received by the body to its physiological effects. Two
terms used to relate the amount of radiation received by the body are exposure
and dose. When you are exposed to radiation, your body absorbs a dose
of radiation.
As in most measurement quantities, certain
units are used to properly express the measurement. For radiation measurements
they are...
| Roentgen: The roentgen
measures the energy produced by gamma radiation in a cubic centimeter of
air. It is usually abbreviated with the capital letter "R". A
milliroentgen, or "mR", is equal to one one-thousandth of a
roentgen. An exposure of 50 roentgens would be written "50 R". |
| Rad: Or, Radiation Absorbed
Dose recognizes that different materials that receive the same
exposure may not absorb the same amount of energy. A rad measures
the amount of radiation energy transferred to some mass of material,
typically humans. One roentgen of gamma radiation exposure results
in about one rad of absorbed dose. |
| Rem: Or, Roentgen Equivalent
Man is a unit that relates the dose of any radiation to the
biological effect of that dose. To relate the absorbed dose of specific
types of radiation to their biological effect, a "quality
factor" must be multiplied by the dose in rad, which then
shows the dose in rems. For gamma rays and beta particles, 1 rad
of exposure results in 1 rem of dose. |
Other measurement terms: Standard International
(SI) units which may be used in place of the rem and the rad are
the sievert (Sv) and the gray (Gy). These units are related as
follows: 1Sv = 100 rem, 1Gy = 100 rad. Two other terms which refer to the rate
of radioactive decay of a radioactive material are curie (Ci) and becquerel
(Bq).
Bottom Line: Fortunately, cutting
through the above confusion, for purposes of practical radiation protection in
humans, most experts agree (including FEMA Emergency Management Institute)
that Roentgen, Rad and Rem can all be considered
equivalent. The exposure rates you'll usually see will be expressed simply in
terms of roentgen (R) or milliroentgen (mR). For details on how
much is too much "R", see the Q&A section entitled: Which
Survey Meter Would Be Best For My Needs?
The Sievert
This SI
unit is named after Rolf
Maximilian Sievert. As with every SI unit whose name is derived from the
proper name of a person, the first letter of its symbol
is upper
case (Sv). When an SI unit is spelled out in English, it should
always begin with a lower
case letter (sievert), except where any word would be
capitalized, such as at the beginning of a sentence.
The unit gray measures
absorbed radiation which is absorbed into any material. The unit sievert
specifically measures absorbed radiation which is absorbed by a person. The
equivalent dose to a person is found by multiplying the absorbed dose, in
gray, by a weighting factor (W). The weighting factor (sometimes referred to
as a quality factor) is determined by a combination of: the radiation type,
the tissue absorbing the radiation, and other pertinent factors.[1]
In terms of SI
base units:
1 Sv = 1 Gy · W (where Sv=sievert, Gy=gray, W=weighting factor specific to
each type of radiation and tissue).
1 Gy = 1 J / kg
of absorbing material
therefore:
Sv = 1 J / kg
of absorbing material · W
Frequently used SI
multiples are the millisievert (1 mSv = 10−3 Sv = 0.001
Sv) and microsievert (1 μSv = 10−6 Sv = 0.000001 Sv).
Equivalent
dose is measured in the United
States in rem[3]:
| 1 rem = 0.01 Sv = 10 mSv |
| 1 mrem = 0.00001 Sv = 0.01 mSv = 10 μSv |
| 1 Sv = 100 rem = 100,000 mrem (or millirem) |
| 1 mSv = 100 mrem = 0.1 rem |
| 1 μSv = 0.1 mrem |
The rem and millirem
(abbreviated mrem), as with other customary
units in the United States, are in wider use among the general public,
many industries, and government.[3]
However, SI
units such as the sievert are frequently encountered in academic, scientific,
and engineering environments.

Maybe they are starting to get a handle on things
The government says parts of
the cooling systems at 2 of the 6 reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi
nuclear power plant have been confirmed to be operable.
The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency told a news conference on
Saturday that an emergency
diesel generator at the No. 6 reactor has resumed operation.
The agency also said that a cooling pump, at the No. 5 reactor, has been
confirmed to be usable,
and that workers started cooling the spent fuel storage pool there at 5 AM
on Saturday.
The agency said the radiation level at the west gate of the plant, located
about 1.1 kilometers west
of the No. 3 reactor, was relatively high at 830.8 microsieverts per hour
at 8:10 AM. But it said the
figure fell to 364.5 microsieverts at 9:00 AM.

You need to read ALL of this article
The Japanese government today admitted that it is overwhelmed by unfolding events.
If millions of Japanese wondering what they need to do to get out of
harm’s way are confused, there is good reason for it. The Japanese
government as well as the American one and health officials around the world
are themselves confused about the potential dangers to the people of the
greater metropolitan Tokyo area, which is practically in the shadow of the
out-of-control nuclear power station. Imagine how they feel being so close.
It’s a nuclear nightmare up there in northern Japan. Is there anyone who
really wants to doubt that?
Top U.S. officials have testified before congress this week that the situation
in Japan has reached catastrophic proportions on par with Chernobyl. Both the
Secretary of Energy Steven Chu and Gregory B. Jaczko, the chairman of the
Nuclear Regulatory Commission gave dire testimony before the House Energy and
Commerce committee. This is not the same story being told in Tokyo, at least
not yet. But Japan’s nuclear agency spokesman conceded that a “Chernobyl
solution” of burying
the reactors in sand and concrete was in the back of the authorities’
minds. A day later it is moving to the very front of their minds.
American officials in Japan continue to operate on the assumption that the
danger level is higher than described by the Japanese and in
this essay we continue to assume the dangers are stratospherically higher than
even the American officials are admitting. At this point both
the primary and secondary containment vessels at the Fukushima nuclear reactor
#4 are breached. To make matters worse, radiation readings taken by the U.S.
indicate that the cooling pond is empty, indicating the fuel rods are in a
state of complete meltdown with no cooling to counteract the meltdown in
progress. These events spell out NUCLEAR NIGHTMARE and there will be many
deaths in this bad dream.
The U.S. has issued a 50-mile
evacuation zone around the plant and even that might be too conservative
of a radius as things get further out of hand. This is in contrast to Japanese
directives that people within about 12 miles evacuate while those between 12
and 19 miles stay indoors. Yet there are strong indications that fuel
rods have begun to melt and release extremely high levels of radiation,
suggesting they should really start considering evacuating Tokyo.
t is time to get people out and it’s time for us to stop using fluoride
in our water and mercury in our vaccines and dental products but that’s the
problem with us humans and our cherished institutions—we don’t recognize
the real dangers until it’s too late and we come up with all kinds of
excuses and rationalizations to do or not do something. The frenetic series of
efforts to get water into four of the plant’s six reactors is
not working.
American officials say they suspect that the Japanese power company has
consistently underestimated the risk and moved too slowly to contain the
damage. To expect the politicians, nuclear power energy officials and the
company owners to communicate in an unbiased/untwisted way about nuclear
events is to be a fool. All they see are safety signs in their minds and they
cannot let anything get in the way of the future of nuclear power even though
it’s proving out to be the stupidest, most insane thing modern man has ever
done. We will now learn this lesson the hard way. Does anyone have any doubt
about that either?
As each hour passes in Japan, the world comes closer to reading news of one
of the largest nuclear stations in the world going out of control creating a
permanent hot spot on our planet that will result in nightmares for ages to
come. It is already happening and we are within a hair’s breadth of
incalculable suffering and harm to human civilization. Yet the risks are not
being disclosed for fear of panic. The days and weeks ahead are going to give
us a shocking wake-up call about who we are and what we have done and allowed
to be done to our lives. It is a good time for prayers and a good time for
some self-reflection.
The United Nations is forecasting a possible radioactive plume coming
across the Pacific Ocean and arriving
in California today, according to the New
York Times. California is going to get dumped on by the jet stream from
Japan with the fallout being the first whiffs from the first, most minor
explosion at Fukushima. The radioactive fallout will contain uranium, cesium,
tritium, strontium, and carbon 14 but not very much radioactive iodine. In our
next essay entitled “No Danger, No Concern, No Sanity,” we will look more
carefully at what to pay attention to regarding long-range, traveling nuclear
fallout.
odine supplementation always makes perfect medical sense for an
iodine-deficient population whether confronted with radioactive iodine or not.
Dr. David Brownstein has tested 5,000 of his patients and has conferred with
many of his colleagues who all sustain the reality that 95 percent of
Americans are iodine deficient. Without sufficient iodine we are sitting ducks
to toxicities of many kinds with radioactive iodine being only one. Fluoride
in the drinking water is much more toxic to an iodine-deficient thyroid. They
will not warn you about that and they will not give sufficient warning to what
is happening in Japan and what lies ahead.
Soon it will be deadly +plutonium coming through. The fuel rods at all six
reactors at the stricken Fukushima Daiichi complex contain plutonium. Only six
percent of the fuel rods at the plant’s Unit 3 were a mixture of
plutonium-239 and uranium-235 when first put into operation. The fuel in other
reactors is only uranium, but even there, plutonium is created during the
fission process. This means the fuel in all of the stricken reactors and spent
fuel pools contain plutonium. Plutonium is super nasty stuff, especially
damaging to lungs and kidneys. Inhaling or ingesting only
one radioactive particle of plutonium can cause cancer.
There
are 3,400 tons of fuel in seven spent fuel pools within the six-reactor
plant, including one joint pool storing very old fuel from units 3 and
4. There are 877 tons in five of the reactor cores. That is a lot of
radioactive material and Japan is actually a very small place.
The
media run by the super elites are not going to tell people what is
really going on. You think they are telling the truth about what is
happening in the Gulf states? You think they are going to warn the kids
going down for spring break to stay out of the water? You think they are
going to tell everyone to go out and buy both eating
and external
clay to help draw radioactive particles from the body? No they will
not come out with any helpful informative information.
You
would think they would give a heads up to the population about the
usefulness of simple Arm & Hammer baking soda and how useful that
can be to citizens worried about or actually suffering with radioactive
contamination? Not a chance even though it’s been reported that you
can clear soil of uranium with it, with sodium bicarbonate, the same
stuff that you can stick in your refrigerator, brush your teeth and wash
your hair with and even save a life in the emergency room. The
world is already paying a high price for nuclear energy. It is not clean
and green and certainly not safe but you will never get them to admit
that. If a company like Boeing can fall to the temptation of arrogance
and shoddy planes, as 60 Minutes exposed, what do you think the nuclear
power industry is all about?
So
what aren’t they telling us? They are not telling us that the mixed
oxide fuel rods used in the compromised number three reactor at the
Fukushima Daiichi complex contain enough plutonium to threaten public
health with the possibility of inhalation of airborne plutonium
particles.
Plutonium
is most dangerous when it is inhaled and gets into the lungs. The effect
on the human body is to vastly increase the chance of developing fatal
cancers. That is why in my protocol I call for use of glutathione sodium
bicarbonate nebulization because it treats and helps clear the lung
tissues. If one has anything above a zero chance of surviving the
inhalation of airborne plutonium it’s going to be this kind of
treatment as well as with the use of clay. Well actually increasing
one’s chance from zero entails the use of a complete protocol for
radiation exposure.
The
damaged number three reactor was undergoing its first fuel cycle using
MOX at Daiichi. If one of those MOX
reactors blows, spewing plutonium dust across Japan and elsewhere, it is
lights out via cancer for anyone who breathes the stuff. The half-life
of various plutonium isotopes ranges from minutes to 80 million
years. Plutonium-239 has a half-life of 24,100 years meaning it takes
that long to lose half of its radioactive potency—nothing compared to
depleted uranium, which counts its time in billions of years.
Uranium-235 has a half-life of 700 million years. And cesium, which
tends to go airborne easily, has a half-life of 30 years.

You've all seen the devastation an 8.9 or 9.1 earthquake can
cause, at least in Japan.
If you haven't here is a link to 182 pictures of that damage.

Here's another 67 pics

sweeping away houses, cars, and people.

It is totally mind boggling what just
30 feet of water can do, and this devastation goes on up to 60 km
inland. In the 70's while doing nuclear work at Pearl Harbor with a team
from our shipyard, I visited
Wiamea Beach in Hawaii on the north shore. I ventured out into the surf, got
just behind where the
waves broke and enjoyed looking at the sand just in front of me 12 feet below
as I bobbed up and
down with the waves. A storm came in that week and the next weekend I
went back up there and
watched 25' waves roll in. There was also about 500 feet of beach missing. I
mean just GONE.
It simply wasn't there any more. Never before then had I really
understood the real power of just water.

The cause of this earthquake?
This is a disturbing URL as there was much speculation HAARP was used to
create the Asian tsunami also.
It certainly is within the realm of possibility though. Maybe they hadn't
planned on the reactor part of it, or
maybe they did? http://www.ufo-blogger.com/2011/03/japan-earthquake-tsunami-haarp.html
Others say it was due to a planetary
alignments involving earth, the sun and what NASA is calling a
comet named ELININ. Problem with that is many truly believe Elinin is
Nibiru or Planet X. Watch this video
all the way through. Not only does it show there were alignments at the time
of the Asian Tsunami and the
huge Chilian earthquake as well as the Christ Church New Zealand quake but
also on March 11th when the
Japanese 8.9 quake occurred. Now this all happened when this thing was a long
ways out there. The
really interesting part of this presentation is what happens in the future,
like Sept 27, 2011, this year, when
another alignment occurs, but now it is really really close to us. Watch all
of this!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfOfBrNUOGA
Was HAARP used to supplement the
planetary alignment situation? You will have to be the judge of that.
Now besides all the physical devastation let's get to the real meat of
the problem.
Japan has 55 nuclear reactors, 6 of which are housed at the same location on
the east shore
of Japan at the Fukushima Daiichi plant. The incoming tsunami shutdown
utility power and the tsunami
was higher than the walls around the backup electrical generators, flooded the
spaces the generators
were located at and rendered them unusable. Oh-oh. No power to run main
coolant pumps circulating
water around the reactor core. Three of the reactors were operational and were
shutdown by lowering
the boron control rods into nuclear fuel modules of the core. But reactors
don't shutdown like a car engine.
They still continue to produce heat which has to be removed. In fact the three
remaining reactors were
already shutdown and had their fuel modules in what is called a spent fuel
pool which has to be cooled
for six years before the fuel modules can be moved to an inground storage
facility. There is a very large
number of spent fuel rods in these spent fuel pools and when the water
covering disappears big troubles
happen , like rapid oxidation of the titanium housings which then can create
spontaneous combustion of
the spent fuel as it is still making heat, lots of heat with resulting fires
containing lots of fissile material of
contaminated particles that are radioactive. This part of the problem is
extremely serious, especially if it
gets into the jetstream which sends it to the United States. A radiation
monitoring station in Bakersfield ,
CA, has already recorded a radiation cloud of 232 microrems on March 16th,
about 4-8 times above
background levels, it but settled back down as the radioactive cloud headed
east and south. See
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnZEWCKla1A&feature=fe...
for a screen shot of that event.
The term Microrems probably doesn't mean much to
you. Let's put that number in better perspective.
A Rem is 1000 millirems (mrem)
When I first started working in the shipyard we
were allowed a 5 Rem dose per year.
REMS and RADS are about equal, the REM has biological factors entered in is
the main difference.
When I left ten years later the powers to be had lowered that number
to 500 mrems per year, one
tenth of the previous doseage allowed. The
symbol micro µ
(looks somewhat like a U with a tail)
means
one millionth, or ten to the minus 6. So
a millionth of a rem is really .001 or 10 to the minus 3 mrems.
Before I go into further explanation I
want you to watch this video which does a very excellent job
of explaining just why this is a big problem.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjdgHqY2K-4&feature=player_embedded
As of March 18th
The International Atomic Energy Agency reports that electrical power lines
have reached Fukushima site.
Pumps and generators have not been restarted yet, however.
The United States is ready to supply pumps, generators and necessary support.
Helicopters have stopped water drops.
Water cannon firetrucks were unable to reach reactor site.
At least two reactors and possible three have started meltdown because of lack
of coolant.
There have been fires in at least two of the facilities.
The top was blown off one of the containment facilities by a hydrogen
explosion but the REACTOR
containment vessel was not blown apart.
All six reactors are in trouble, actually the three spent fuel pools are a
bigger problem than the three other
reactors because of the large number of spent fuel rods in them.
The evacuation zone from Fukushima has been extended to 30 km.
There are radiation readings well above background being detected in this
fallout zone.
People are being frisked for radioactive contamination.
If they don't get electricity restored and primary coolant pumps and spent
fuel cooling pumps running
very very soon this can make Chernobyl and Three Mile Island look like a
cakewalk.
I hope you realize this is amazingly serious if meltdowns happen.
The Fallout will travel according to the trade winds... This Jetstream
Map shows air currents through March 19th
http://www.forbiddenknowledgetv.com/videos/meteorology/cbc-alert-japanese-nuclear-jet-stream-fallout-map.html
Core meltdown WILL send radioactively contaminated particles to the US,
although most should settle out over
the pacific. How serious can that be? In the United Kingdom, many farmers
cannot sell their livestock because of contamination from Chernobyl that is
still in the soil and the grass and as it comes up in the grass and the
animals
eat it, they become radioactive emitters in themselves containing these
radioactive atoms. The radioactive atoms
are in them. And if we eat those products, the same atoms then come into
us. There are probably few left in Japan remembering the pain and agonizing
deaths of those irradiated and contaminated by the Hiroshima and Nagazaki
bombs. This event is no different, just a different delivery mechanism.
We are entering the time of troubles spoken
of in the Bible. The Japanese people have the potential to receive
lethal doses of radiation if cooling pumps are
not restarted very very soon. If the wind turns and starts blowing west
instead of east, they are in super big trouble.
Exposure versus effects
80-120 rads - You have a 10% chance of vomiting and experiencing nausea for a
few days
130 -170 rads - You have a 25% chance of vomiting and contracting other
symptoms
180-220 rads - You have a 50% chance of vomiting and having other severe
physical effects
270 -330 rads - 20% chance of death in 6 weeks, or you will recover in a few
months.
400-500 rads - 50% chance of death
550-750 rads - Nausea within a few hours ; no survivors
1000 rads - immediate incapacitation and death within a week or less.
Although I have built a page at www.detailshere.com/radiationposioningprevention.htm
that speaks
to minimizing the effects of radiation exposure, I haven't touched much on the
problem at hand. The problem
is huge. There are now 6 reactors in trouble, fires burning in three of them,
no coolant water on exposed
spent fuel modules in cooling pools, some fuel modules with the tops not
covered with water at all, essentially
melting, evacuation zones have been extended to more than 20 miles, US
Carriers out in the sea near Japan
had their radiation monitors go off and have relocated to avoid exposure
to the crews, some reactor compartments
are now so hot radiation wise workers can't enter them, this is an extremely
volatile situation that is going to
affect more than just Japan. I wish I didn't know what I do about the
nuclear industry. How much it affects us
in the US is soley a function of how high the contamination goes. If it gets
to the jetstream five miles up, the
contamination - think of it as particles smaller than a grain of flour - WILL
come to the US. Contamination is
the small particles containing the radioactive atoms. The particles are
radioactive and attempt to reach stability
by giving off emmissions in the form of alpha particles ( sizewise two
netrons two protons like a helium atom,
very heavy and very high specific ionization - don't travel far but create
much cell destruction in a short distance
if taken internally through breathing or drinking or eating the contaminated
molecules.
Beta particles are the size of an electron, can be
attenuated by 30' of air, or a piece of paper but again create cell
destruction. Gamma radiation is similar to xrays except they originate from
the nucleus of the atom and have
much higher energy levels. They pass through you with the speed of
light, 3 x 10 to the 8th meters/sec, and
break apart DNA strands and change and damage the chromosones on those
strands. Much of this contamination
may settle out in the ocean before it reaches the jetstream. We don't
know yet. Obama's statement that it won't
reach the US and is a non event for us shows his ignorance on the
subject. It already has at Bakersfield and
we certainly haven't seen the end of it. You can't just shut a reactor off
like a car engine. Even with the boron
control rods put all the way in , the heat continues to build, and needs to be
removed. Reactors run at very high temperatures and pressures, like 2500psi
and 480 degrees fahrenheit. You can't just inject cool water into a
reactor easily. Like putting more air into an already full balloon. When water
molecules go through the core and
absorb neutrons the hydrogen atoms in the water molecules (remember H2O)
become deuterium (one extra
neutron in the nucleus) and tritium (two extra neutrons in the nucleus). Both
of these are radioactive and emit
ionizing radiation . When they vent off steam from these reactors to relieve
pressure, even though this is
filtered, some of this deuterium and tritium escapes to the atmosphere, along
with other fissile daughter
radionuclides, like cesium 137, iodine 131,and metallic wear products
like cobalt 60 because these particles
are so small. People have no idea of the seriousness of this situation.
The Japanese people have no idea
of what radiation sickness is like. It's a slow agonizing death. They
are being killed from inside out. Specific
ionization has no limits when the source of the radiation doesn't die or stop.
Half lives of some of these particles
can be in the millions of years. There are probably few left in Japan
remembering the pain and agonizing deaths
of those irradiated and contaminated by the Hiroshima and Nagazaki bombs.
This event is no different, just
a different delivery mechanism. We are entering the time of troubles spoken of
in the Bible. These is a lack
of information coming forth from both the US as well as Japanese Nuclear
Regulatory Commissions.
France wants the nuclear disaster upgraded to
level 6. Japan insists it is only level 4. (3-mile Island was less
than 6 - Chernobyl was 7). We still do not know whether the radiation has
reached the jetstream or not. Although
the US is monitoring that, they are treating us like mushrooms. They are not
talking.The consensus seems to
be that it wasn't a mushroom cloud and so probably did not go that high.
At this time of year, rising steam is
likely to condense at 1000 feet or so. The jetstream is 5-7 miles high.
Also, the jetstream does not go 200
mph all the time. It goes no faster than 200 mph. It could be a
great deal slower. Most of the reports I read
today indicate that Japan remains tightlipped about the quantity and levels of
radiation being emitted.
I encourage everyone to think back and remember anyone you ever knew with
knowledge of the nuclear
power industry and find out whatever you can. Every single report is
contradicted by another report. The
govt and the media are not forthcoming with the truth. This is a joint
effort. We have to figure it out ourselves.
Reportedly, some radioactive isotopes likely to be in this fallout are iodine
131, cesium 137, strontium 90,
plutonium 239 and cobalt 60. Potassium iodide only protects against iodine
131. As for the other isotopes,
avoid ingesting into your stomach and lungs and avoid contaminated food, water
and air. To avoid inhaling
these contaminants, wear a facemask out of doors and keep the air conditioner
off when indoors, once it is
determined that we have heightened levels of radiation. For ventilation
indoors, screen or filter outside air.
Filter or distill your water, or have water delivered. Well water that
comes up into a wellhouse and is piped
out of the wellhouse should be fine. I recommend everyone get facemasks,
N95 if possible, surgical
acemasks at the very least, and have them on hand. Before the radiation
cloud gets here, gather water in
anything that will hold water and put a cover on it if possible. Hemp
plants decontaminate soil containing
cesium 137 and strontium 90. It's not too soon to think about
decontaminating soil used to grow food.
Greenhouses are a good plan. The nuclear reactors in Japan have 23 sister
reactors in the US, same
design, many on or near fault lines and close to sea level. In fact the news
tonight predicts a major earthquake
in the US by the 19th. If significant radiation never arrives, this
is a good practice run. Being prepared with
bulk foods, water, first aid, gold and/or silver, personal protection and useful
knowledge is prudent.
The sickening part of all of this is that cold
fusion (this is commercially available today with none of the
products of fission reactors), tesla magentic free electricity machines and
solar panels
are available today to not need nuclear power. When larger and larger
earthquakes start occurring, more
and more fission reactors are going to be spewing out their poison. Check

for when and
where the next big one might be. It's no
wonder Jesus said He had to shorten the clock and come soon
or there would be nothing to come back
for.
What can you do?
Pray! Help begin a "Great Asking" for the Almighty Creator to
dissolve all harm from the "potential"
dangers coming out of Japan heading East across the Pacific.... now primed to
hit the West Coast.
The ONLY thing that can minimize the dangers contained in those trade winds and
pacific current is
ASKING the Almighty to collapse the harm and bury it deep in the ocean, or
wherever He Deems the
Most Appropriate and Healthful for the majority of Mankind..... like hard
offshore breezes coming
off the mountains to meet the Pacific winds to force all harmful particles away
from our shores. We also
ask for protection for the Japanese people from contamination and from the
harmful effects of this event.
Interesting to note that when the big one hit Haiti, a lot of looting and
pillaging and theft went on. In Japan
people don't steal other people's things. Shop keepers lowered prices so more
people could afford their
goods, people brought other people food and put on their doorstep. And although
Japan is supposedly
only 1% Christian, they certainly own up to God's command of love thy neighbor.
