NHK, Apr. 10, 2015 (emphasis added): About 160 dolphins washed ashore on a beach in Ibaraki [50 miles south of Fukushima border]… A local aquarium says this type of dolphin… is usually found in deeper waters. It says it is unusual for so many to be washed ashore.
Japan Times, Apr 11, 2015: 149 melon-headed whales [washed up] in Hokota. Seven more were stranded in nearby municipality of Kashima.
AFP, Apr 10, 2015: Television footage showed several animals from the large pod had been badly cut, and many had deep gashes… “We see one or two whales washing ashore a year, but this may be the first time we have found over 100 of them on a beach,” a coastguard official told AFP… Several animals were writhing in a futile effort to move.
Inquisitr, Apr 10, 2015: A Japanese coast guard official has said that he is witnessing this phenomenon for the first time in his life… According to BBC News, these species of dolphins are usually only found in the deep waters of the ocean. It is extremely rare for them to show themselves up on the beach… this might be the biggest single case of mass beaching of dolphins that have been reported from Japan… This case of dolphins beaching themselves is eerily similar to another phenomenon that has been noted recently… young sea lion pups ending up on the beach – starving and dazed.
Mainichi, Apr 11, 2015: Kashima Coast Guard station transported and released three of the melon-headed whales… but most of the dolphins died and were buried on the beach… According to Toshiya Kishiro, head of the whale resources group at the National Research Institute of Far Seas Fisheries… a possible reason for this most recent beaching is that the dolphins had parasites in their inner ears.
AP, Apr 10, 2015: Tadasu Yamada, a cetacean expert at the National Museum of Nature and Science [said] the dolphins may have had a physiological or psychological problem and faced an unknown threat and panicked…
Yamada: “We don’t see any immediate signs of diseases on their bodies, such as cancer. We want to figure out what killed these animals.”
Slate, Apr 10, 2015: Many animals that become stranded are later found to be ill.
AFP, Apr 11, 2015: The mass beaching… has fuelled fears of a repeat of [the 2011] earthquake… a flurry of online commentators pointed to the appearance of around 50 melon-headed whales… six days prior to the monster quake… More than 100 pilot whales died in a mass stranding on a remote New Zealand beach on February 20, 2011, two days before a large quake… Japanese officials nevertheless tried to calm fears and insisted there was no scientific data to prove the link.

I agree that the internet is a great communication tool but sometimes it seems that rather than taking physical action people just sit at a computer. Also it keeps people from gathering together in real groups. Its kind of like driving a car, you can be stuck in traffic in the same spot every day and never know the people in your same situation. If everyone was walking or riding bike there would be more community. Am I the only one that feels like the internet is a blessing for those trying to keep this twisted system going because hardly anyone feels they have to do anything more than type their disapproval. Before the internet people got together and took physical action against injustice and batshit crazies. Sometimes these actions bore fruit. Nowadays everyone stays at home or in their cars and the madness just spins out of control faster every day.

Almost every article that starts off with "Tepco Admits" Was due to the collaborative efforts of not only the users here; But the Youtube channels that Process the information that we use to share here.
Their lies were untold by this community, myself included; Since admin began the forum in march 2011.
There is no doubt an information extraction taking place from Tepco Pr and Physicists the like. Whom gauge our responses and antidotes to a great extent.
Believe that every user here has contributed to progress and progression. Do you think the webcams would be up without us? What about the Fogging events (emissions)? Would they have been mentioned?
What about when the employee at tepco pointed at the camera and gave a speech. Who do you think Noticed that first? Cause it wasn't cnn. And It wasn't fox. And In my opinion. Of the 7.6 billion people on the planet. There are likely only 20,000 people that knew any of those situations took place. (2000 of them being in japan / or tepco).
We are a special breed of humanitarians, that put our planet first. There is no other way of looking at it.

Following up this article.. [Photo] 160 dolphins went aground in Ibaraki / Same as 1 week before 311 [URL]
According to National Science Museum, most of the inspected 17 dolphins had their lungs in ischaemia state.
The researching team, which consists of approx. 30 experts, performed autopsy inspection on 17 dolphins.
The chief of the researching team stated “Most of the lungs looked entirely white”. She commented though internal organs were generally clean without any symptoms of disease or infection, but most of the lungs were in ischaemia state. She said “I have never seen such a state”.
Most of the 160 dolphins died by the evening of 4/11/2015.

I could barely bring myself to read this article, let alone look at the pictures of the stranded dolphins.
I'm a big supporter of enenews,have been since the beginning. I've battled my fair share of nuke trolls on the site, especially in the beginning. I'm a big fan of dark humor to cope with this unfolding ecological cataclysm, which most of us saw coming from day 1. This thread has lots of dark humor, understandable given the idiotic pronouncement that the dolphins may have had "psychological problems".
I'm very good with sarcastic, dark humor, but in this case, I'd like to take a moment to say a prayer for these beautiful sentient creatures that we have murdered with human greed, arrogance, and stupidity. Remember, we're only seeing the ones that have stranded. Several times more probably died out in the open ocean. We deserve what's coming, these creatures didn't.

But, over the past few years, the frequency and the degree of this violence has gone up drastically – the beatings and tortures have given way to outright murders and executions.

@ Bungalow Phil; There are far too many unqualified,improperly-trained and/or just plain sadistic,overzealous LE officers to begin with! The new programs giving police departments leftover,"war surplus" military-grade weapons,including those that fall under the TRUE definition of "assault weapons",ie;"portable firearms that gives each SOLDIER a firearm capable of firing more than one bullet with a single pull of the trigger,chambered for high-powered rifle ammunition capable of penetrating light body armor and/or obstacles/barricaded positions that uses either high-capacity magazines or belt-fed ammunition",NOT,"semi-automatic,civilian,replica versions of the above,properly-defined "assault-weapons"!! So by giving these TRUE "assault weapons" to LE Dept.'s nationwide comes with it the new threat of a long burst of highly-penetrative projectiles fired at alleged criminals running away from alleged crime scenes through highly-populated cities & towns coming through windows,walls,etc. & statistically more likely to maim or kill innocent civilians inside their own homes,vehicles,out walking their dogs,etc.than the perps they intended to fill full of lead[??!!]
I wish there was more "specific details"given by gun-control advocates with re;to "who is shooting who",not just the innocent victims & kids deaths being despicably politicized to forward/serve the true agenda of TPTB who promote/support more BS laws while they"selectively"can't/won't enforce…

Our lazy ass old gun-grabber politicians are too effin' lazy to author the Bills they promote,so they copied the likes of Hitler,Goebbels,etc. almost WORD for WORD!!! It's pretty simple actually,just END the War on Drugs with sensible laws,regulation & even taxes that would benefit ALL and the turf ward in minority neighborhoods would cease overnight! The number of shootings & murder by guns would suddenly be less than vehicular homicide,stabbings,beatings or any other "tools" that are used for heinous crimes!! With that,I disengage from the OT "gun control" argument I have been occasionally annoyed by & surprised a bit upon learning who brought it up & actually believes in it. I'm deeply sorry for anyone who suffered losses at the end of a gun,but I feel pretty bad for those who might have been saved if they'd had one too! "Gun Control" should be one of the subjects added to the list of "taboo" issues here on ENE & I'll be the 1st to abide by it in advance!! PEACE

Johnny Blade-I agree with alot of your positions. I have had law enforcement in my family for generations. Small town law enforcement. Different than the heavy shit that goes down elsewhere. The local police rarely pull their weapons, much less shoot an unarmed suspect in the back. There seems to be a psychological thread that permeates the ranks of the larger departments and some states in the south. It may be in the training or in the dept. themselves between the rank and file.
To compound matters, I don't think all of these violations are legit. Overriding compassion and common sense takes a lot of repetitive programing. Keeping the people fearful and on edge is the how the powers stay in power. And peace to you and yours.

"National Geographic’s Anti-Science Stand #3: Might-Is-Right Evolution
Although Darwinian evolution may provide a welcome alternative for some to the Catholic Church’s doctrine of Creationism, the truth is that we are facing another false dichotomy where neither side has all the truth. The theory of evolution may explain some things well, but it fails to fully understand the role of cooperation and symbiosis among species and the ecosystem. The whole idea of a dog-eat-dog, might-is-right, survival-of-the-fittest world is totally in line with the way that the predatorial elite class thinks. They view the rest of humanity and the world as a resource to be used and exploited for their own personal gain. Devoid of empathy and compassion, they see this as the rightful and moral way of things. A closer examination of Darwin reveals that his father was a 33rd degree Mason, that Freemasonry (one of the most powerful Secret Societies on Earth) funded the theory of evolution because it destroyed people’s idea of God and their spiritual sides, and drew people’s attention to lower matters (base level survival) rather than higher ones (love and harmony)."

Mass Whale Beaching Re-Ignites Quake Fears Among Japanese – #1424
Six days prior to Japan’s devastating 2011 undersea earthquake that killed over 18,000 people, around 50 melon-headed whales – a species that is a member of the dolphin family – beached themselves on Japan’s beaches. Now, 4 years later, and despite a lack of scientific evidence linking the two events, many Japanese took to social media in fear as the mass beaching of over 150 melon-headed whales on Japan’s shores has fueled fears of a repeat of the monster quake, which unleashed a towering tsunami and triggered a nuclear disaster.
The mass beaching of over 150 melon-headed whales on Japan’s shores has fueled fears of a repeat of a seemingly unrelated event in the country — the devastating 2011 undersea earthquake that killed over 18,000 people.
The 2011 Japan earthquake is not the only instance of beached whales closely preceding a massive tremor.
More than 100 pilot whales died in a mass stranding on a remote New Zealand beach on Feb. 20, 2011, two days before a large quake struck the country’s second-largest city, Christchurch.

The term ischemia, is used to describe a condition.
There are many potential causes of that.

A pulmonary contusion is usually caused directly by blunt trauma but can also result from explosion injuries or a shock wave associated with penetrating trauma. With the use of explosives during World Wars I and II, pulmonary contusion resulting from blasts gained recognition

Thats an interesting point freebywill but, there does not appear to be any blood coming from the mouths or blowspouts of and of the animals. They said the animals lungs were white and devoid of blood. I suppose tepco could be doing some strange testing at fukushima wit charges but it is doubtful. ALSO any sonic or explosive trauma u mention would have been a convenient excuse instead of having to bring up things like cancer and radiation. ID say what happened to the dolphins matches pretty closely to the researchgate article heart and teri site. THERE is known to be large amounts of ionizing radiation in the water, soil, air there. THERE are plumes of radiation being emitted by the leaching of the rogue cores melted rods and huge amount of high level radioactive waste around the plant from the initial explosions.

Civilization is run by too many thugs, crime syndicates and psychopaths! From the article on Somali dumping;
For decades members of organized crime syndicates and other western companies have been freely dumping tons of radioactive nuclear waste into the unregulated shores off Somalia’s coastline, poisoning the seas and devastating the local population.
after the 2005 tsunami, hundreds of the dumped and leaking barrels washed up on shore. People began to suffer from radiation sickness, and more than 300 died.
The main perpetrators are said to be Italian firms controlled by the mafia, whose job is to dispose Europe’s extremely hazardous waste.

yes bo. cat scans are highly intense xrays equivalent of several regulat xrays. they have to give people a strong antidote before kidney cats scans to reduce dailure risk. high enough ionizing radiation anywhere in the body can cause blood vessels to spasm collapse or. they just kill the vascular tissue and all the organs feeding off blood from those blood vessels die. whether the blood vessels aee zapped from the outside like with a catscan or from the inside like with the dolphins. the ionizing radiation likely perfused their blood caused vaso spasms and almost cauterized the dolphin alveoli. just blood y awful. strokes occur when no blood to brain.

The researching team, which consists of approx. 30 experts, performed autopsy inspection on 17 dolphins.
The chief of the researching team stated “Most of the lungs looked entirely white”. She commented though internal organs were generally clean without any symptoms of disease or infection, but most of the lungs were in ischaemia state. She said “I have never seen such a state”.
Most of the 160 dolphins died by the evening of 4/11/2015.

jebus from my 25 years experience with toxidromes i can tell you this is a unique radiological syndrome. paraquat causes fibrosis of lung tissue. boric acid causes lobster syndrome.where all extremities turn bright red and it.looks like skin boiled off. raynauds disease from radiotherapy causes vasculitis. catscan can just fry your kidneys. BACKGROUND:
Radiotherapy for breast cancer often involves some incidental exposure of the heart to ionizing radiation. The effect of this exposure on the subsequent risk of ischemic heart disease is uncertain.
METHODS:
We conducted a population-based case-control study of major coronary events (i.e., myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, or death from ischemic heart disease) in 2168 women who underwent radiotherapy for breast cancer between 1958 and 2001 in Sweden and Denmark; the study included 963 women with major coronary events and 1205 controls. Individual patient information was obtained from hospital records. For each woman, the mean radiation doses to the whole heart and to the left anterior descending coronary artery were estimated from her radiotherapy chart.

The charts trended to increased ischemic heart disease in women with breast cancer who recieved radiotherapy.

Posting this radionuclide effect on lungs again 'cuz it sort of got lost on previous page. Seems pretty much pinning it down to me. Poor dolphins and other air breathers too.
Excerpt from one part of the studies: http://www.researchgate.net/publication/17716999_Ischemia_of_the_lung_due_to_ionizing_radiation_quantitative_studies
>Differential broncho spirometry in man has shown that the percent of oxygen uptake of one lung, which is a measure of the percent of pulmonary blood flow to that lung, correlates closely with the fraction of radioactive particles in that lung (10). It has also been shown that radioactive particles and labeled red cells undergo a nearly identical distribution in the lung (11). Our results confirm the finding that radiation injury causes pulmonary ischemia. They indicate that the degree of ischemia is influenced both by the duration of survival following irradiation magnitude of the radiation dose. Our observations were made over a 10-month interval, which is about half the life span of the Swiss mouse. We did not observe evidence or reversal of the intensity of ischemia. Therefore we conclude that the process is irreversible although further studies through an entire life span would be required to establish this point irrefutably. <

INSIGHTS into the WORLD / Govt should heighten role in science push
April 13, 2015
By Takashi Shiraishi / Special to The Yomiuri Shimbun
Discussions are taking place at the Council for Science, Technology and Innovation (CSTI), chaired by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, on the formulation of the fifth Science and Technology Basic Plan.
The CSTI is responsible for overseeing Japan’s entire science, technology and innovation policy and coordinating the policy initiatives and approaches of individual ministries. Every five years, it formulates a Science and Technology Basic Plan that serves as the basic guideline for policy initiatives. The current fourth plan covers the period through fiscal 2015. …
To better understand why government commitment is important, let us look at what is happening to the field of nuclear engineering in Japan.
The national consensus over the future of nuclear power generation has been lost since the crisis that began in 2011 at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant of Tokyo Electric Power Co.
The government remains ambivalent on this issue, pledging to reduce the dependence on nuclear power for Japan’s energy supply while stating that it will continue to rely on nuclear power plants in tandem with thermal and coal-burning power plants as so-called “base load power sources.” …
Report comment
The government’s failure to specify the precise mix of energy sources does not bode well for the future of nuclear power generation.
It is not hard to understand why many bright young students are now leery of entering graduate schools to major in nuclear engineering and beginning careers as nuclear power engineers and researchers.
Without people working in the field of nuclear power engineering, whatever nuclear power policy the government eventually adopts will come to nothing.
The key to national strategic core technology is the role of the state in specifying core areas of science and technology to be strategically promoted and in building a robust national system of research and development based on national R&D agencies.
Only when the state’s firm, long-term commitment is demonstrated will talented young researchers enter areas of science and technology that are of great importance to the nation’s security and competitiveness.
A government think tank has identified 165 candidate themes for the promotion of national strategic core technology, including artificial intelligence, next-generation aeronautical technology, advanced laser technology and technology for reducing the volume and toxicity of high-level radioactive waste. The government must determine how large official investments will be for each area. The government should not try to choose which specific themes to fund or not. …

Utah stepping closer to taking 250,000 tons of radioactive waste — forever
By BRIAN MAFFLY | The Salt Lake Tribune
Apr 12 2015
Clive, Utah — The barrels look harmless enough.
Tucked away in a sterile metal shed in the middle of Utah's West Desert, the 55-gallon plastic drums show no hint of what lies beneath the metal lids — radioactive waste that will only get hotter over time.
EnergySolutions executives hope the 5,400 containers eventually will become a waste stream that could sustain the company for years — approximately 250,000 metric tons of depleted uranium in all.
The waste-management company has prepared a burial ground for the stuff — a vast pit, 10 feet deep, where tens of thousands of the drums would be lined up and covered in concrete, clay and rocks.
Forever.
Or at least as far into the future as humans can plan.
Now, state hazardous-waste managers have to sign off on the idea.
EnergySolutions' proposal to allow the U.S. Department of Energy to send up to half its depleted uranium to a Tooele County landfill 80 miles west of Salt Lake City is nearing final approval.
On Monday, the Utah Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will release an evaluation of the company's ability to keep the uranium safe. At the same time, DEQ wants to hear Utahns' thoughts about the plan. Public hearings are scheduled in early May.
For decades, stockpiles of the…

waste — just one legacy of the nation's nuclear bomb-making binge — have defied permanent disposal because of concerns about long-term risks. When you're projecting thousands of years of radioactivity, no one is 100 percent sure what that means for Earth's inhabitants.
"It's a sticky, complicated issue. There is a lot of fear surrounding it," said DEQ Executive Director Amanda Smith during a recent visit with The Salt Lake Tribune editorial board.
But EnergySolutions Marketing Vice President Mark Walker says the company simply is fixing a problem all Americans helped create.
"As a country, we generated this," Walker said. "We all benefited from nuclear science, whether it's through medical research or cancer treatments, energy [or defense].
"The nuclear bomb was developed to protect our country," he added. "To responsibly manage it limits the risk for everybody."
Whether the company's plan is responsible is a point of debate.
—
Dread and buried » Depleted uranium, or DU, is considered a low-level hazard today, but it becomes progressively more radioactive over thousands of years, posing an environmental hazard deep into the future, long after the civilization that produced the waste disappears.
Right now, the waste — 750,000 metric tons — is being stored at three U.S. Department of Energy sites, in South Carolina, Kentucky and Ohio.

Public should remember cost to Tularosa families
As the Trinity Site opens to tourists on the 70th anniversary of testing the atomic bomb, I hope tourists, lawmakers and politicians remember the families still living in the Tularosa area who continue to battle the negative effects of the testing that occurred near Tularosa seven decades ago.
While reading a New York Times article, little was mentioned about the Tularosa Basin Downwinders. They were referred to as a small group of local protesters "claiming they are living with, and dying from, the health effects of the tests decades later." (http://nyti.ms/1C8qA9K)
This is my plea. I beg New Mexicans to stand by this small group of local protesters. The Tularosa Basin Downwinders fight to bring justice to the many Tularosa residents who suffer from a slew of health issues such as lymphoma, to many forms of cancer.
The federal government established the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act as a form of compensation for families, but cleanup efforts and options are limited. It is going to take a lot more than a small group of local protesters to bring the proper attention to such a serious health issue.
I would like to thank the local media for bringing much needed attention to the people of Tularosa, specifically the people of Tularosa …

"We found increasing evi- dence of chronic airway obstruction (FEV1/ FVC%, PEF, MEF25, MEF50, MEF75, and small airway hyperreactivity) and restriction (FVC, restrictive airway defect) with increasing quintiles of soil 137Cs in the NCC children. This is consistent with previously reported data (Yablokov 2009b). Restrictive ventilatory impairment in children could be caused by decreased pulmonary surfactant, reduced lung growth for age, chronic obstruction, or fibrotic changes. Changes in the fatty acid composition of pulmonary surfactant after chronic radiation exposure have been reported (Kolpakov 1999; Parkhomenko et al. 2008). Such changes in pulmonary surfactant could lead to restrictive ventilatory impairment. Survivors of child- hood cancer who received radiation therapy have been reported to develop significant pulmonary problems, including lung fibro- sis (Abid et al. 2001; Mertens et al. 2002). Radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis will typically produce restrictive ventilatory impair- ment. Thus, the 2.60 times greater likelihood of restrictive ventilatory impairment observed in this study is plausible in light of the current medical liiterature."

There it is…..the dolphins "did" commit suicide.
My cousin used to frolic with dolphins along the East Coast, she was a true water-girl and her experiences with the playful mammals were memory makers. I used to read John Lilly's dolphin stuff, but just talking with my cousin cemented my reverence for the intelligence beneath the waves.

"The ischemic cascade unfurls when people have strokes, heart attacks, respiratory arrests, and other medical emergencies that limit the supply of oxygen to the brain. Neurologists have studied the process extensively to learn how it happens and what is involved in each stage, with the goal of potentially developing treatments to arrest the cascade. Researchers believe that halting the series of chemical reactions involved could derail the ischemic cascade, limiting damage to the neurons in the brain and reducing the risk that strokes and other events will have long-term consequences."

Now (except for ferric- facialhair who won't understand this anyway!), consider this:
What if my theory of GMI is linked to ischemic cascades? Think about it. Absolutely horrifying to contemplate.
But the signs point to low oxygen levels and restricted blood flow following radiation toxic loading of an organism. Cancer won't even have a chance to kill folks before an ischemic cascade ravages their brains, rendering them unable to function as a normal being, ever again….

Dirty, Dangerous and Expensive: The Truth About Nuclear Power

50 Years Later, The Tragedy of Nuclear Tests in Nevada
by Norman Solomon
… ''There is no danger'' …
"Fallout on Las Vegas and vicinity following this morning's detonation was very low and without any effects on health," …
It was a popular theme among prominent commentators like syndicated columnist David Lawrence, whose wisdom appeared in the Washington Post and other leading newspapers. "The truth is," he wrote in spring 1955, "there isn't the slightest proof of any kind that the 'fallout' as a result of tests in Nevada has ever affected any human being anywhere outside the testing ground itself."
By then, children and others living in downwind areas were beginning to develop leukemia. As time passed, people in affected areas suffered extraordinarily high rates of cancer and thyroid ills. Functioning in tandem, the news media and the federal government continued to deny that nuclear testing was a health hazard.
In August 1980, nearly three decades after the Nevada site opened for nuclear business, the U.S. House of Representatives Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations concluded: "All evidence suggesting that radiation was having harmful effects, be it on the sheep or the people, was not only disregarded but actually suppressed."
That assessment was no surprise to thousands of downwind residents like Jay Truman, who grew up in southwestern Utah under the shadow of the test…

site. After watching many friends die, he had no interest in pretending that the U.S. government did not kill his schoolmates.
When I met Truman in 1980, he was already an expert on nuclear testing. Today, as director of the Downwinders organization (www.downwinders.org), he's still fighting the good fight.
From the Rockies to remote Russian sites, nuclear industries have taken an enormous toll. Victims include Native American uranium miners, nuclear-plant workers and far-flung residents, soldiers exposed to atomic bomb tests at close range, Pacific islanders, and people whose lives were forever changed during a few split seconds in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. …
Unable to admit the inevitable health effects of nuclear tests, "all governments of all testing nations learned how to — and perfected being able to — lie to their own citizens."
Fifty years after the first mushroom cloud overshadowed the Nevada desert, military contractors and their allies are eager to spread the news about the latest technologies offering "an added angle of safety." In 2001, Star Wars is back on the media horizon. It's never too late to make a killing.

- Nothing has changed, nothing changes, it's still the same old story. No-one gets sick, no-one dies, radiation is safe, radiation is good for you. Soon ''death by natural causes'' will everywhere carry the footprint of radiation.

Sure things have changed..everyone is now dying from cancers!
Thanks Nuclear!
http://www.cnn.com/2014/02/04/health/who-world-cancer-report/
The real perspective is if you take 7.5 billion divided by our U.S. population of 317 million = 23.66 x's
23.66 x 587,000 people (U.S. cancer death rate) = 13,888,520 cancer deaths world wide per year x let's say and average lifetime of someone (baby) born today of 80 years.
80 years x 13,888,250 yearly cancer deaths = 1,111,060,000 (billion) worldwide cancer deaths in his 80 year lifetime.
Now if the 70% projected cancer increase happens 1,111,060,000 X 70% = +777,742,000 additional cancer deaths = 1,888,802,000 or almost 2 billion cancer deaths in this one person's lifetime while living on this planet.

It's important to add that Dr. John Gofman estimated 32,000 Cancer DEATHS every year from around 20 nuclear power plants.
Using his numbers, and multiplying them by the 435 operating nuclear power plants around the world,
that adds up to 696,000 cancer DEATHS EVERY YEAR from nuclear energy.
That is monumental.

My gut says he is very light on his numbers, since all processes of the entire Nuclear Chain have to be taken into consideration. Where ever the waste, mining tailings, airborne/water releases are found within all the areas of the world you will find high cancer rates. I feel about 80% of the cancer rates world wide can be attributed to this Nuclear Chain and now heavy ball hanging around all ours and our kid's necks.
Then one has to take into account the recycling of Nuclear laced Materials in all our manufactured goods. The damage being done now worldwide is insidious!
Odorless, tasteless and invisible and now lurking everywhere while always trying to get into your home right through your front door!

(NaturalNews) Even as radioactive waste from the Fukushima nuclear disaster continues to pour into the Pacific Ocean, the world's nuclear industry is undergoing a different kind of explosion.

Good Beatles music!
arclight really does a great job interviewing
Some points from his interview with Dr. Mangano:
* published 33 articles in peer-reviewed medical journals
* found high and elevated cancer rates around nuclear power plants; thyroid cancer, childhood leukemia, and breast cancer
* baby teeth study ==> collected 5,000 baby teeth and tested them for strontium90 – the levels of s90 in teeth were highest near nuclear plants; they were rising over time; and were the same trends as local childhood cancer. This was the only study of radiation in-bodies of Americans near nuclear plants
* Need to get the information to the public

Why don't the Japanese just research WHY these other whales died? No need to hunt these creatures EVER anymore.

So why all the fuss over the beached whales/dolphins?
Maybe…..
…just maybe….
…the world's public will start getting wind of Japan's attempts to KILL more whales at the same time the beachings come to light…then others will question the need for resumed whale killing.
Fukushima, as always, will remain in the background. Still, it's a start.

Nick – Much as I dislike Japanese whale hunting, it is still a somewhat good sign for the Pacific ecosystem (certainly not for whales but marine life in general). When the Japanese voluntarily give up whale hunting because there are very few whales to hunt, then we should be nervous. There is also the possibility that a Japanese whale hunt is part of a larger cover story.

Can't remember where I read it, maybe a link here, that a whale hunting expedition from Japan returned for the first time having not killed a single whale. Bad sign of the times maybe?

The article said that they followed the International Whaling Commission 'rule' that the Japanese were not allowed to kill whales. So they stopped.
