The Fukushima Dai – Ichi Nuclear Power Plant was severely damaged by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan in 2011.

This report is divided chronologically, in before and after the catastrophe.

The Fukushima power plant might not be in the place you’ve heard before, but you might know something about it or might have a small clue about the plant. This plant was popular among the Facebook news feeds in 2011 as it was revealed that there is some radiation in the ocean or in the ground level of the Fukushima plant which could have been the major problem to the earth. It could have caused a meltdown and changed the earth or displaced people of the northern hemisphere.

Unfortunately, no one knows the whole truth about this, but the research is continuing and some of the main points are evaluated here:

Tokyo Electric Power Company [TEPCO] had predicted that a tsunami would occur, based on the data from 1960, they predicted that it would arrive with a 8 meters tall wave and they predicted that the plant would not bare this event. This report was published by TEPCO just 4 days before the tsunami occurred. But due to no seismic activity or prediction no measurements were taken.

TEPCO also revealed that 300 tons of radiated water has been leaking in to the sea Every DAY Since 2011, but there is a no valid proof and no one really knows what might happen in the coming years.

In the 1980s and 1990s the top 5 executives resigned from TEPCO because the reactors failed to qualify the safety test which resulted in some cracks in them as well. But in 1999 two workers were killed due to the chain reaction as the employees lacked protection and gear.

Cesium-137, Cesium-134, Strontium-90, and Iodine-131 are all radioactive poisons currently being released into the environment and contaminating the water supply in the Fukushima prefecture.

The report also stated that these chemicals are in levels of acceptance but few areas show that these chemicals are in dangerously high doses.

In 2013 Japan referred this event as a serious incident on an international scale as the leaks were estimated to be around 300,000+ litres of radioactive water which were directly deposited into the ground water and the nearby ocean.

After few weeks, TEPCO came to address this problem and researchers as well as experts started working on this problem.

Japan’s government is now keen to take over this issue as leaks were found in August of 2012 due to the carelessness of the TEPCO which is not able to keep this situation under control.

The International Atomic Energy Agency gave this event a disaster rating nearly same as the Chernobyl 7 out of 10 and the highest marks a nuclear incident can receive.

TEPCO being aware that the tsunami would destroy parts of the Plant took measures when the tsunami hit the nuclear plant, but all went down in vain as it didn’t have experience or the manpower to have the site under control. TEPCO tried to limit the problems by building storage tanks of radioactive water that were damaged again and leaked over 300 tons of radiated water which created a larger problem and resulting in radioactive water in the ground water as well the nearby farm lands.

Robert Alvarez a former senior policy advisor to the Deputy assist for National security and the environment of the US department of energy said that –

“It is my understanding that of the 1,532 spent fuel assemblies in reactor No. 304 assemblies are fresh and unirradiated. This then leaves 1,231 irradiated spent fuel rods in pool No. 4, which contain roughly 37 million curies (~1.4E+18 Becquerel) of long-lived radioactivity. The No. 4 pool is about 100 feet above ground, is structurally damaged, and is exposed to the open elements. If an earthquake or other event were to cause this pool to drain, this could result in a catastrophic radiological fire involving nearly 10 times the amount of Cs-137 released by the Chernobyl accident.”

The only difference you can find from the Chernobyl is that the reactor went cold after the massive radioactive fire, but Fukushima is still working and the core is just too hot to test and till now no one knows how to manage the core or the leaks.

The WHO [World health organization] released several reports on the FUKUSHIMA which concludes that there is radiation present in the ground water directly outside the plant. And Japans immediate response to this was to give everyone vicinity iodine pills which were efficiently handled and done quickly, saving many Japanese from this radiation. Some reports also show that increase in cancer in Fukushima residents is low but however few isotopes build up in the bones and vital organs over time and the only way to test whether the radiation is increased or not is by time long testing the residents of the city. ?????????????????

 

But to conclude FUKUSHIMA now, is dangerous. The 18 month project now started to remove the fuel rods from the damaged sector 4. If the connected pipes get broken or subjected to air, the resulting chain reaction and explosion could force the residents of Japan and the residents of many pacific islands and parts of west coast of America to evacuate. However there is no proof or correct evidence that this even will happen for sure.

The Naked Truth About The Fast Food Guy aka ‘Burgerflipper’

By

Written by: Stevil

There is a huge problem in the fast food industry which most people are not aware of.

I would like to note that the problem is not incompetent employees, despite the fact that most people still think that employees spit in hamburgers. The line about fast food industries being anti-union doesn’t even begin to cover it. Fast food employees make the bare minimal. And I’m not just referring to the high schoolers that need mall money, I mean you can be a manager at one of these places for ten years and still be making below double digits (seriously, I’m not making that up). Every time minimum wage goes up – guess what, that’s your raise for the entire year (as opposed to your normal ten cent raise)! Don’t like it? Complain to someone working at your restaurants office, but I wouldn’t recommend it because complaining gets you fired, and fast food experience isn’t worth shit to other employers. You’re just a burger flipper, remember? Want hours? Too bad, you get the hours we give to you. If you want more you have to work overnights. Want to move up in the company? You can move up to crew trainer (which gives you twice the amount of work with either a ten cent raise or no raise at all), or manager (which will literally triple your workload as well as your stress levels for a 1% pay increase. But fast food’s easy right? If the job’s not hard why should they make as much money as someone working at a harder job?; If you truly believe this you’ve never worked in fast food and you’re a complete tool. Try working at the busiest McDonald’s in an entire city with a broken air conditioner and 110 degree grill area (based on real temperatures, not made up ones), with around 400 customers per hour all demanding fast service and taking their anger out on you and your co-workers as you struggle to keep up with demand by working your asses off, sweating out ten pounds, you’re short handed because a third of your co-workers are trainees and another third called off, only to come home covered in grease to a family you can’t support because your boss who wants you to work your ass off at the threat of termination won’t pay you anywhere near what you deserve. Now you just lost your apartment because you can’t pay rent and you either have to pick up two more jobs and work 60 hour weeks or apply for welfare and be thought of as a parasite to society by everyone on the planet.

When this is your job, do you give a shit that there’s mold in the asshole customers drink machines? Literally 50% of the customers are rude and 10% of them are not just rude, they’ll sit there and scream at you over a mistake you don’t remember making on their sandwhich for five minutes then demand to speak to your manager to complain about you in front of everyone else, holding up more customers who are now getting angry themselves. Once in a while you’ll get a customer that will throw hot coffee at you, tell you you’re worthless and you should get a real job (where asshole? when the economy is shit and you can’t afford to go to college you’re fucked because no one other than fast food will hire you). Occasionally your store owner will show up in his brand new sports car, wearing a thousand dollar suit, and he’ll sit there and tell you what you’re doing wrong, but god forbid he helps you out when it’s busy, or give you any extra money for working your ass off, or even just pay you what he owes you. And if you get injured at work? Don’t bother reporting it because your boss will fight your story in court if it even gets that far (which it won’t because you can’t afford a lawyer, much less the healthcare your boss won’t give you to help with the injury).

Oh and say your store runs out of a product and all your customers are bitching, whatever you do don’t agree to go to another store to pick up supplies, because your boss will give you 1/3rd of the gas money that you need to get there and back(this is McDonald’s standard rate, anyways). Want some food from the store you work at? Too bad, you still have to pay for it (oh but it’s okay we’ll give you a 30% discount – your only benefit).

So if it seems like the employees there don’t give a fuck about you – the customers, it’s because you don’t give a fuck about them either until they screw up. On top of that, their boss doesn’t give a fuck about them (they are expendable after all). Society doesn’t give a fuck about them. The government doesn’t give a fuck about them. No one thinks twice when a fast food worker gets fired for a bullshit reason, doesn’t get paid what they deserve, or picks up a massive drug addiction as the only form of relief from the constant stress.

3D Printing Organs, Body Parts & Human Skin

This (picture below) is a printer used in a process known as 3 dementional printing. It sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie right? I said the same thing when I was told about it. This one is industrial sized used for large scale printing but you…yes you can also own one. From at home use to mass production in factories to prosthetics in the medical field, 3D printing is changing the face of how we make things.

3d printer

What is it exactly?!

The good news is Attack of the Clone isn’t happening just yet. So what IS 3D printing? 3D printing also known as additive manufacturing, is the process of making three dimensional solid objects from a file. So it’s just like printing your resume that’s saved as a file on your computer or thumb drive,except instead of using ink on paper it uses layers of plastic polymers,metals or a combination of both. While the the technology seems like something that has only come to pass in recent times, the materials and equipment were actually first developed in the ’80s. The first big step for 3D printing was made by Chuck Hull in 1984. While founding 3D System Corporation he invented a process known as stereolithography . Since the printers require a special file type, Hull also developed the STL file format  which is still the preferred file type for 3D printing software, as well as the digital slicing and infill strategies common to many processes today. Some call him the grandfather of 3D printing.

Though all 3D printers print three dementional objects, not all 3D printers use the same technology to do it. In fact there are several ways to do it. Some methods use melting or softening material to produce the layers. Selective laser sintering (SLS) and fused deposition modeling (FDM) are the most common technologies using this way of printing. Another method of printing is to lay liquid materials that are made using alternative technologies . The most common technology using this method is still the stereolithography method developed by Hull back in the ’80s.

 

How we’re using them today

There are countless industries that have benefited from the dawn of the 3D printer but the most promising is the medical fields. Scientists are already on track to printing hearts! It may sound far fetched but, at team at the University of Louisville has already printed a heart valve as well as blood vessels, the latter of which have already been successfully tested in mice. 3d printing

They hope to eventually piece together an fully functioning human heart. Science hasn’t stopped at hearts though, earlier in the year the first living, functioning and transplantable 3D printed kidneys were produced. Though they are miniature in size a good 90% of the cells in them are alive, they can perform all of the same functions a full sized kidneys and afterwards, they can survive for up to four months in a lab thanks to a rich nutrient gel. They’ve also produced other body parts like an ear that can hear better than a human one, a cast that has the potential to speed bone healing, a pelvis , and an artificial skull received by a woman in the Netherlands. printing-skin

3D printing innovations are also helping the medical sector make literal strides by printing prosthetic limbs like legs. Echo is already producing athletic ones and a number of companies offer customized legs. Victims of spinal injuries have joined the club too! Earlier this month surgeons at Peking University, in Beijing successfully implanted an artificial, 3D printed vertebra replacement in a 12 year old boy with bone cancer.artificial skull 3d printed

This operation is the first if its kind. It’s designed to mimic the shape of the child’s original vertebra, it doesn’t need help staying in place in place like traditional spinal implants; healing should go a lot faster, too. The vertebra is full of miniature holes that will let natural bone grow inside, eventually becoming a permanent, stable part of the spine as the boy grows. This eliminates the need for any replacements or adjustments down the road.face-prostetic

Needless to say 3D printing is definitely leading us in some promising directions. If you’d like to hop on the 3D selfie bandwagon that’s going on in Britain , you can buy one of the at home printers for $500. Before you know it your wife could be printing dinner.

The Outsider Provocateurs of the Ferguson Riots

By

Written by: Anonymous Watcher

Most political demonstrators will protest in the streets in a peaceful and non-violent manner. To do otherwise is an attempt in vain. Most know and understand that the firepower and man power of the police force alone – without military intervention – is more than one large group of protestors can hope to withstand. Essentially, the notion of a mass protest is to demonstrate the support behind the message and make more aware along the way. The motive of destruction and injury is usually far from the peaceful protesters motivation.

1408543722776.jpg-620x349

But in recent events, during the Ferguson protests that the world has come to view in Missouri, it seems that the notion of peaceful protests has taken a turn for the worst. The looting and destruction that has moved throughout this community appears staged. According to one local, it is a possibility that the looters have “come from out of town…that they are not affiliated with the protesters in any way.”

What this suggests, is that it is highly probable that provocateurs have entered the scene to create trouble and enhance police intervention. This allows for the unsympathetic authorities to initiate and engage in heavy force to anyone who is involved with the protests. And it wouldn’t be the first time this tactic has been engaged in throughout the community of activists, western world and alike.

1408306008444.jpg-620x349

Generally speaking, agent provocateurs are people who work for the local government, funneling down to an authority level. They act on the false pretense of being ‘anti-establishment’, but soon their behavior escalates to that of riot psychology. It can almost be deemed as a ‘false flag op’ on a small scale. This in turn, allows the authorities to march in so that they can control the entire situation, turning a peaceful protest quickly into a civil dispute, more akin to a war zone.

Multiple locals have commented on the appearance of “strangers” responsible for the looting.

“There are a lot of opportunists running around trying to take advantage of what’s been happening in Ferguson, but it’s not people in Ferguson doing it. Why would you ruin a store where you live and need to go shop at?” Lindsey Johnson, a Ferguson local stated.

Another local, Craig Ruffin, told the Riverfront Times, “This is really tragic – we shop at all these stores…I’m with the peaceful protesting. But this right here, this is not what we’re about.” [1]

What remains ever present when you investigate or discuss the Ferguson riots with people, are a peaceful protest by day, and a violent standoff by night. As quoted by a journalist on scene for the Daily Telegraph, “Things change by the setting of the sun…Protesters appear during the evening; those who aren’t local to the area. Bandanas cover their faces…only a handful of men…” But they force their angry way into the town, agitating the already fragile state of Ferguson.  “Protesters and police alike have blamed outside agitators of trying to use Ferguson’s anger to ignite a global revolution.”[2]

The connections between Ferguson, and the other riots that have taken place over the USA, and not to mention its Western neighbors: Australia during the Summit meetings of 2006 and most likely 2014, and Toronto in 2010 for another G20 summit – the theme is becoming a common thread if you dare to look closer. [3],[4]

The demographic is obviously different in each situation. However, the illustration of left vs right, and the breaking point of the public when the law enforcement’s stringent, almost militaristic nature intervenes, displays the similar characteristics. A brute force is relied upon by the law enforcement, the rage evolves for one reason or another (including outside forces brought in to poke the already angry bear), and the heavy-handed tactics suddenly become “justified.” Images of a militaristic police state begin to surface.

It is not an unlikely event that Ferguson could erupt into a civil war type scenario, if the provocateurs continue their aggression. The ramping up of the militarized police responses, and in turn, locking down the entire town as a result, are not unforeseen events. Treating the civilian population as the enemy will only provoke this response. The question that arises from all of this: is this the overall intention of the state?[5]

So far, reports notate at least 10 people have been injured, and 75 arrests have taken place. Of the 10 injured, 3 were police, and 1 was a 54 year old male trying to stop looters. He was attacked with a baseball bat. But depending on where you look and read, the statistics will differ, with some stating that journalists have also been arrested in the heat of the riots or during an evening curfew which is not always imposed.

628x471

According to some of the latest figures, 2 people have been shot during the escalating riots. What is interesting in one report, is that of the arrests, 93 percent were non-residents of Ferguson. This only adds to the plausibility of a potential provocateur group being introduced for the sake of “public control,” by the police. [6]

The simmering tensions are far from over. As the week approaches, so does the court’s decision regarding the outcome for Officer Wilson. Will he face the charges, moving the political ‘hot potato’ to the decision of laymen jurors, while tempers continue to flare? What will the outcome be? One does wonder.
