    Back to hard scrabble: Cold fusion could replace the grid of explosive-nuke-generation, fairly conveniently-- If Sterling is correct. In the interview listed above, he states that the Greek company expects their product release this year! (?) Home power-generation units priced in the cost range of a motorcycle. BTW only low level, fully sheild-able radiation is used-- It is being tested for home-safetyby a government agency as well, if i heard correctly. He also covers the South African story of another, non-cold-fusion unit.

    Given this mindset, it remains my expectation, that nuke-clean-up (nano-manipulation) is a realistic hope. There is much more to this than merely building massive concrete tombs for busted nuke plants.
    is the whole greek monetary system being threatened because they are allowing the release of cheap energy systems to the public?

    as for Fukushima, they just admitted one year later that the rods have 60 centimeters of coverage, not the 4 meters, everyone thought...

    Wow... what a HEAVY thread. I have some information that may lighten it a bit. Here is a link to a network of PRIVATE individuals who keep tabs on radiation across the United States. I have been watching it for some time now. It really doesn't show what is being discussed here. And this is IMPORTANT... because this story COULD be a FALSE FLAG operation. I don't know another way to check this now... but I'm not sure the information in this thread is accurate. Here is the site to check out for yourself:

    http://www.radiationnetwork.com/

    I'm going to try to paste the map here so you can also see it in this post. This map is updated in real time every minute. There is one private individual in South American and a few reporting from Japan. According to information given by contributors to this network anything over 100 is something to be concerned about... and as of this post there are no numbers over 100. This might help calm everyone down:


    We all need to be careful here... because we have all realized that TPTB have a vested interest in keeping us all in FEAR. And according to this site, manned by private individuals, there is currently nothing to fear from this story... or at least not in this present instant.

    Thanks Dawn, I was meaning to look for something like that.

    I just now caught up to last weeks coverage of incredible stories on eutimes.net

    Russia Stunned After Japanese Plan To Evacuate 40 Million Revealed


    Massive Radioactive Wave from Japan Approacing US West Coast


    Fukushima Reactor 2: Radiation Comparable to What We See in Space

    I'm persuaded that the pathological liars in politics are locked down themselves. To protect the nuke industry in USA. Since we have many identical reactors in USA. There is at least one large effort by NYC peaceful-activisits to shut down Indian Point facility...

    Or what? If bad leaks are found there? Try relocating 20 million from NYC area to where????

    Ah yes, NewYorkers can fly over and join the Japanese in the ghost cities offered by China?

    While the Pentagon is doing what? To protect us from our own weapons (nuke source production).

    I truly wonder... We met the enemy and them is us.

    Dawn, you are awesome. This is exactly the kind of information that I was looking for!

    PS Can't get the US map to show. Interesting that radiation levels are so low in Japan?

    Maybe we do need to get our own radiation counter? As I said, I find it odd that radiation levels in Japan are shown so low, but maybe these things can be explained.

    Take a closer look at that web page its not a searchable web site. No home page, no contact us, nothing traceable. More like a military PDF or spread fact sheet. So unless we jump in a car with a radiation counter first had. Taking this web page as fact if manufactured by the , who ever cant be verified.

    what many don't seem to realize is that fukushima can happen anytime anywhere. all that's necessary is another large earthquake (or nuke). as has been said in this thread before, it all boils down to money (and convenience).

    something like nuclear power plants should never have been built in the first place, and after fukushima it should have become obvious to everyone that all of them must be closed down immediately if a worldwide catastrophe is to be avoided. more and more earthquakes, countless prophecies of doom and major earth changes and still most people can't be bothered to say, let alone do, anything about the no.1 threat to all life on earth. earthquakes, tsunamis or volcanoes may be devastating but the devastation will be thousandfold if more nuclear power plants are severely damaged in the process.

    it is unfortunate that those people who don't agree with all of this are in the minority and will suffer along with the rest but imo the current state of the world shows that the human experiment once again turns out to be a failure. if things would keep going unchecked humanity would wipe itself out before the seeds of the "golden age" can even begin to take root in the collective unconscious.

    what we see right now is the fruitless struggle of a few who are ready for a peaceful coexistence with all life on earth, to wake up the many who are being controlled by a greedy minority, and yet most of them couldn't care less about it. at least 95% of all people i try to talk to about the current state of affairs have either no clue what's going on, how they're being manipulated, or are completely apathetic about it as long as they have their tv, job, car, supermarket, etc.

    i've said it before an i'll say it again - earth-created/natural worldwide doom with most of humanity wiped out would be the best that could happen to this planet. and if the vibration of earth is indeed rising then those human bodies that are left and their children can become the vehicles of an enlightened race that starts a new golden age...provided they survive the radiation from thousands of damaged nuclear power plants.
    Among the blind the one-eyed is a madman.

    More information to blow the program of nuclear fear that TPTB have spent decades implanting in us all. If you are open minded this detailed scientifically based information will help you become free of yet another lie that has been perpetrated upon the sheeple.

    ......What if the EPA has deliberately been creating a public fear program about radiation that benefits TPTB?
    ......What if nuclear radiation exposure in certain amounts is GOOD for you?
    ......What if there is NOT ENOUGH background radiation in many parts of the world to provide for maximum health? (the US for example)
    ......What if scientists and others who have been carefully investigating this field actually WEAR RADIOACTIVE pendants to provide MORE RADIATION for their bodies to support their health?
    ......What if you have been LIED to?
    ......Sound familiar? Here is more for you to investigate.

    I'd like to tell you that I know all, however this is not true. What is true, is that I have wonderful and brilliant friends. When I am curious about something I ask if they know anything about the subject. Here is a response from one such friend through email. I also spoke to him on this subject. He sent lots of wonderful links for us to explore on this subject. Who knows, you too may end up with a jar of natural uranium ore in your kitchen cupboard to enhance your health.

    IJwheat, if you carefully look at the web page I linked above you will find all the information you desire. This is a site where private parties have purchased Geiger counters and can link to the site to upload data for us all. Therefore some of the meter locations come and go on the site as different private users are sometimes off line. I have not personally contacted the hosting company, but you can, because their phone number and address are readily available. I agree, we cannot know for sure... but we also cannot know for sure about any of the information posted on almost anything on this thread. I am offering everyone a different view. And I think it is very important. This is how we help each other avoid the FEAR traps which are set to ensnare our minds within this reality.

    There seems to be some truth in saying that a slightly higher level of radiation is beneficial for people in certain ways. One piece of evidence for this comes from here in Australia, where it’s now well-known that all the sacred sites of the Aboriginal peoples are areas where there are substantial uranium deposits. Having visited a number of such sites, I would say you don’t need to be very sensitive spiritually or psychically to notice that such places have the effect of being uplifting to the human spirit.

    On the other hand, the problem may be real but not as devastating as some may imagine. I guess people would call my next comment channeling, except that I don’t ever try to do any channeling. But six years ago I did happen to be told very precisely by some guardian angels that in the near future humans would no longer be able to eat fish ever again, owing to some sort of permanent contamination on the planet. The emphasis seemed to be very much on the loss of this healthy food source rather than on the contamination causing it being the bigger problem.

    Radiation isn't much of a problem if you get external exposure. It's a different ball game if you inhale it or injest it. That's the biggest concern all of us should have when it comes to radiation.
    On the topic of exposure levels, say If some one lives at a low elevation with low annual background exposure, say 1mSv and that person's "tipping point" of exposure and cancer onset can be represented by an addition of one drop of water to a wine glass. Just a little from Chernobyl or CT scan will generate negative effect, spill of water over the rim of glass, i.e. cancer.
    Now, say another person lives in Colorado with a much higher annual exposure from natural background radiation say 6 mSv. His/her tolerance can be represented by a bucket of water. It will only take one drop of water to overflow the bucket of water, just as in the previous case of little exposure from Chernobyl or CT scan. This person being able to tolerate 6 mSv per year will come with cancer by a signle CT. The problem is that you cannot say for sure if that event did it. The bottom line here folks is that no level of exposure is safe. We can talk statistics and how that applies to what ever number of people we have on this planet. I see it as each and every one of us is so precious. I hate what I do for a living. It's time to let the toys go...

    I'd like to see a higher level of discussion on this thread because the topic is important. Unfortunately we have all been carefully programmed by TPTB with lies and by hiding the truth from us.... and some posts here seem to be parroting these programs, rather than attempting to look at what might really be happening here. For now I will play devil's advocate and see if I can debunk a bit of this. However, I do not have the full picture and I'd really appreciate some other good researchers and bright minds coming in to support a truly open inquiry by the Avalon community. Well, I hope I don't get slaughtered by 'you all' for popping your sacred cow programmed beliefs... but here goes...

    Quote Czarek: The bottom line here folks is that no level of exposure is safe.
    Great statement! This is EXACTLY what TPTB have programmed us with! The problem is that it is an utter and total lie! In fact the truth is exactly the opposite. Radiation is good for you and it is pretty hard to get too much, and there is a lot of documented evidence to prove this... but this evidence and scientific studies have been suppressed by the EPA so that us sheeple do not know about it. The book recommended in post #28 above, 'Underexposed, what if radiation is really good for you?' by Ed Hiserodt carefully lays out the facts. If you take the time to educate yourself this information will blow this fear program totally. The radiation coming across the ocean from Fukishima just might promote health for us!

    Quote Sesan: Yes Nearing we are truely in trouble. Cancer rates in my area seem to be on the rise. I know that radiation levels here on the coast of British Columbia have been alarming. Not good.
    What are you using to determine the radiation levels in BC? How do you know? Please share with us what your sources are so that we may all examine the facts.

    I would like to address the cancer issue. I know cancer has been on the rise for many years. This past month I have come in contact with a body of knowledge that may really blow your mind. It turns our that the true root cause of cancer might be in our gut. We are not feeding and nourishing our internal garden of gut flora and fauna. In fact, we are killing it with antibiotics, high sugar content in our food, GMOs, chemical additives in our food, and the dead food itself. Surprising as this might seem, there is a lot of evidence that this is the underlying cause of disease and illness in our modern society. It even appears that a healthy internal garden protects us from excess radiation. Here's a link with more info about this; https://projectavalon.net/forum4/show...hat-you-think-

    The important thing to know... is that only in the case of VERY high doses of radiation and ingestion of radioactive particles is cancer seen. And, as far as I can tell, we don't have that yet. Perhaps there is something I’ve missed in my research, if so I’d like to know about it.

    As far as the rods in Reactor #4... Here is a quote from the opening post of this thread:
    Quote If they are MOX fuel, containing 6% plutonium, one fuel rod has the potential to kill 2.89 billion people.
    So, is there a way to know about these rods.... ARE they MOX fuel? The post did not say they were, it said IF they are... So what IF they are not? How do we find out? Anyone have any ideas?

    Please do not continue to simply toss our unsupported scary beliefs. The fear they create is damaging to those who are exposed to it.

    Quite depressing. When I read things like this and what it does to our earth and what it can do to our beautiful animals and nature it just makes me sick to know I am apart of this gene pool of a species. May god or aliens come as soon as possible and eradicate or free us from this destruction we have done to this planet.

    I beg to differ with your “explosion analysis.” As a former Health Physics Technician at nuclear power plants, the danger you espouse of the rods in the spent fuel “exploding” won’t happen, it takes a massive conventional explosion to touch off a nuclear bomb. Unfortunately, I do agree with how deadly that drained pool would be. If a (a being just one) spent fuel rod were placed at the endzone line of a fooball field fully shielded, and you were at the other endzone line at the opposite end of the field, if you began to run at the same time the shielding were removed, you would be dead before you reached your own goal line. Now multiply that by the actual number of rods that would become unshielded if that pool drained…

    Hi All:
    I’ve been reading all the comments since I posted mine yesterday and there’s a few things I’d like to respond with:
    1. this isn’t a religious debate. regardless of your religion or lack thereof, this is about mankind and every other living thing on the planet’s future. Please stop the religious arguments – it’s not getting us any closer to the truth of the situation.
    2. You cannot just take machines and remove the problems at Fukushima. You can’t bury it and you certainly can’t blow it up.
    3. There’s a lot of people that don’t realize that when the media talks of fuel “rods” they are misleading the populace again – it’s fuel assemblies and each one holds 62 rods!

    Thank you for this informative article. I used to work in the radiation biology field before I became a stay-at-home mother and author. We’ve been monitoring the radiation in our home, our food, water, and surroundings for several years now, but even more so after the Fukushima incident.
    We have noticed a spike in radiation (2 x higher) on the days it rains. We are located in Maryland. When we visited Florida recently, there were radiation spikes when it rained there, too.

    I'm going to be lazy here and not give the link, but if you look at that wonderful piece of artwork by the Japanese artwork that shows all nuclear tests across the world (by the way, there was a test off the coast of Namibia done by Israel and South Africa, and it is ommitted from the artwork), you can see how much radiation we have been exposed to. CUmulatively this is a lot more than was released at Fukishima.

    However, we have proof that exposure to a high level of radiation does kill you very quickly (Russians tend to be very courageous and when there is a nuclear accident, men willingly lay down their lives to 'fix the problem'). Do we have studies that examine the effects of long-term exposure to low levels of radiation? From my own experience, I was living in the UK when Cherynobal (sp) blew, and I had many X-rays in the earlier years of my life (what really scared me after a major car accident that from the moment I was taken from the ambulance I was surrounded by medical personell, who then all hastily disappeared for the X-rays!), and I am still alive and cancer free.

    Overall, I think that if we weigh up the dangers of nuclear energy with the reality that humans do make mistakes and accidents do happen, the dangers are greater than the benefits.

    So, how much radiation is there in those spent fuel rods and how dangerous are these dump sites? And why are there lower levels of radiation in Japan than anywhere else?

    The trouble is that too many individuals have become impermeable to knowledge due to an un-natural permeability to propaganda... an empirically observed state of affairs and heavily used by propagandists as revealed in this video:

    Here is some more info a friend of mine (alan)just emailed me. Some of this has already been brought to light in this thread. Why the entire world is not making a cooperative effort to contain this mess is beyond my understanding:

    I was forwarded this from a friend who was on the research team that went to Chernobyl shortly after that meltdown event. May be time to start paying attention to the 'other' media on this subject.

    the info on the increasing radioactivity in the West Cost i suggest you check out for yourself by following the links. As to the main story, it's possible if not probable….
    Russia Stunned After Japanese Plan to Evacuate 40 Million Revealed

    By The European Union Times
    18 April 12
    http://readersupportednews.org/news-...llion-revealed

    new report circulating in the Kremlin today prepared by the Foreign Ministry on the planned re-opening of talkswith Japan over the disputed Kuril Islands during the next fortnight states that Russian diplomats were “stunned” after being told by their Japanese counterparts that upwards of 40 million of their peoples were in “extreme danger” of life threatening radiation poisoning and could very well likely be faced with forced evacuations away from their countries eastern most located cities… including the world’s largest one, Tokyo.
    The Kuril Islands are located in Russia's Sakhalin Oblast region and stretch approximately 1,300 km (810 miles) northeast from Hokkaido-, Japan, to Kamchatka, Russia, separating the Sea of Okhotsk from the North Pacific Ocean. There are 56 islands and many more minor rocks. It consists of Greater Kuril Ridge and Lesser Kuril Ridge, all of which were captured by Soviet Forces in the closing days of World War II from the Japanese.
    The “extreme danger” facing tens of millions of the Japanese peoples is the result of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Disaster that was a series of equipment failures, nuclear meltdowns, and releases of radioactive materials at the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant, following the To-hoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011.
    According to this report, Japanese diplomats have signaled to their Russian counterparts that the returning of the Kuril Islands to Japan is “critical” as they have no other place to resettle so many people that would, in essence, become the largest migration of human beings since the 1930’s when Soviet leader Stalin forced tens of millions to resettle Russia’s far eastern regions.
    Important to note, this report continues, are that Japanese diplomats told their Russian counterparts that they were, also, “seriously considering” an offer by China to relocate tens of millions of their citizens to the Chinese mainland to inhabit what are called the “ghost cities,” built for reasons still unknown and described, in part, by London’s Daily Mail News Service in their 18 December 2010 article titled: “The Ghost Towns Of China: Amazing Satellite Images Show Cities Meant To Be Home To Millions Lying Deserted” that says:
    “These amazing satellite images show sprawling cities built in remote parts of China that have been left completely abandoned, sometimes years after their construction. Elaborate public buildings and open spaces are completely unused, with the exception of a few government vehicles near communist authority offices. Some estimates put the number of empty homes at as many as 64 million, with up to 20 new cities being built every year in the country's vast swathes of free land.”
    Foreign Ministry experts in this report note that should Japan accept China’s offer, the combined power of these two Asian peoples would make them the largest super-power in human history with an economy larger than that of the United States and European Union combined and able to field a combined military force of over 200 million.
    To how dire the situation is in Japan was recently articulated by Japanese diplomat Akio Matsumura who warnedthat the disaster at the Fukushima nuclear plant may ultimately turn into an event capable of extinguishing all life on Earth.
    According to the Prison Planet News Service:
    “Matsumura posted [this] startling entry on his blog following a statement made by Japan’s former ambassador to Switzerland, Mitsuhei Murata, on the situation at Fukushima.
    Speaking at a public hearing of the Budgetary Committee of the House of Councilors on 22 March 2012, Murata warned that “if the crippled building of reactor unit 4 – with 1,535 fuel rods in the spent fuel pool 100 feet (30 meters) above the ground – collapses, not only will it cause a shutdown of all six reactors but will also affect the common spent fuel pool containing 6,375 fuel rods, located some 50 meters from reactor 4,” writes Matsumura.
    In both cases the radioactive rods are not protected by a containment vessel; dangerously, they are open to the air. This would certainly cause a global catastrophe like we have never before experienced. He stressed that the responsibility of Japan to the rest of the world is immeasurable. Such a catastrophe would affect us all for centuries. Ambassador Murata informed us that the total numbers of the spent fuel rods at the Fukushima Daiichi site excluding the rods in the pressure vessel is 11,421.”
    Disturbingly, the desperate situation facing Japan is, also, facing the United States as Russian military observersoverflying the US this week as part of the Open Skies Treaty are reporting “unprecedented” amounts of radiation in the Western regions of that country, a finding that was further confirmed by scientists with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute who have confirmed that a wave of highly radioactive waste is headed directly for the US west coast.
    Important to note is that this new wave of Fukushima radiation headed towards the US is in addition to earlier radiation events that American scientists are now blaming for radioactive particles from Japan being detected in California kelp.
    Though the news of this ongoing global catastrophe is still being heavily censored in the US, the same cannot be said about Japan, and as recently reported by the leading Japanese newspaper The Mainichi Daily News that reports:
    “One of the biggest issues that we face is the possibility that the spent nuclear fuel pool of the No. 4 reactor at the stricken Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant will collapse. This is something that experts from both within and outside Japan have pointed out since the massive quake struck. TEPCO, meanwhile, says that the situation is under control. However, not only independent experts, but also sources within the government say that it’s a grave concern.
    The storage pool in the No. 4 reactor building has a total of 1,535 fuel rods, or 460 tons of nuclear fuel, in it. The 7-story building itself has suffered great damage, with the storage pool barely intact on the building’s third and fourth floors. The roof has been blown away. If the storage pool breaks and runs dry, the nuclear fuel inside will overheat and explode, causing a massive amount of radioactive substances to spread over a wide area. Both the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and French nuclear energy company Areva have warned about this risk.
    A report released in February by the Independent Investigation Commission on the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Accident stated that the storage pool of the plant’s No. 4 reactor has clearly been shown to be “the weakest link” in the parallel, chain-reaction crises of the nuclear disaster. The worse-case scenario drawn up by the government includes not only the collapse of the No. 4 reactor pool, but the disintegration of spent fuel rods from all the plant’s other reactors. If this were to happen, residents in the Tokyo metropolitan area would be forced to evacuate.”
    Even though this crisis in Japan has been described as “a nuclear war without a war” and the US Military is being reported is now stocking up on massive amounts of anti-radiation pills in preparation for nuclear fallout, there remains no evidence at all the ordinary peoples are being warned about this danger in any way whatsoever

    Radiation in small amounts from sources like the Sun are good for the body but massive amounts all at once or moderate amounts over time bioaccumulating in the body are NOT good for it and can trip a cancer-free body to one with cancer given a certain amount of time. Yes, external exposure is not as bad because the skin is a darn good protectant. Thirteen months of Fukushima radioactive material being released into the environment has gone into air and water and has had long enough (given turn over rates of plants and some animals) to become an INTERNAL threat. It has ended up not just in the water and air now but is (and continues unabated to be) in algae eaten by fish that we eat. In soil where we grow crops. In the milk of mammals which are consumed.

    So far, unless a #4 actually does get caught in a tiny EQ and does what the OP talks of, we are having a S L O W release INTO our bodies - which causes cancer and mutations, not instant death.

    Please don't buy into the talk of 'radiation is good for you' and get lulled into thinking that Fuku isn't a threat. It's such a HUGE threat that TPTW won't let the masses know via MSM just how big of a threat it is. As a matter of fact, I think they wouldn't mind a few 100 million or even a billion or 2 people getting cancer. It helps their bottom line and their agendas.
