This "report" is very confusing. I don't think the rebels have taken control of Tripoli -and have only gotten photo-ops when the NATO air bombings were in place directly overhead. The CIA/Al-Qaeda Rebels are killing indescrimately since they are desperate. I think the Libyian people are winning this War besides the constant NATO bombing overhead. I hope the Libyian people can hold off Dictator Obama's CIA Army (and media campaign -it seems).
If the Rebels had control of Tripoli you would expect Gadhafi.

A nuclear bomb typically uses up the nuclear material and it is released as energy. These nuclear reactor meltdowns have more radioactive particles that give off their radiation over a longer time. More fuel to begin with also.
=big difference between a nuclear bomb and a Fukushima nuclear reactor meltdown/explosion.

Easy solution/compromise = take the bark off the wood.
Radiation is a sensitive issue for Japan once again. But what do you do with these radioactive particles? At least the radioactive iodine is mostly gone now (never truly gets to 0 radiation).

Kids and Adults would be heart-broken if ASIMO would succumb to radiation poisoning/cancer and die in a hospital. =Much better Tepco job for the unemployed who cannot be traced easily.

Hitler was a big part of the second 30 yrs war (1914-1945) in Germany. Makes one wonder why there was a first (reformation).
For the 1930's Hitler was very charismatic and had the visual symbol appeal that is still highly sought after and used today. Full Metal Alchemist uses a similar style and period. But really any media TV or corporation copies much of Hitler (especially Globalist corps). A very smooth and visual compulsive style that attracts an audience and garners attention/respect. "Hitler" was well produced and almost all Germans were captivated --> that is the goal of Gov. Obama at his inauguration was very similar in speech, slogans (Yes, We Can!) and symbols. Hitler was also appointed as Supreme Dictator just like Obama (War in Libya with no Congress Approval).

In order to make a damage claim -you must have damages. Much easier for a business to prove than an individual. And even if you could prove your damages you will most likely be waiting 3-5yrs+ since there will be so many claims. And in 3-5yrs Tepco could easily sell to another company limiting their liability.
There was earthquake and tsunami damages that were not Tepco's fault.
Lawyers/politicians will make money from this, but the common person will make little if any. It is best to move on and get your life back together. If this means you want to move -then so be it. Easy for renters, very difficult for homeowners or property managers.

If you look at the Federal Reserve dollar: -If you would have held dollars since 1913 you would have lost 98% of the value of your money. ---> All fiat money is being devalued right now (Swiss Franc the exception, but talk of pegging that to the Euro is causing it to drop)
You want physical gold/silver as money now. Silver is maybe better since it is cheaper. Owning a house or other tangible things. Farmland/having a garden. Be wary of scams since more people are desperate. Have a good back-up of food/water if you have the room.

Best thing you can do for your health is to give your TV to the NHK guy and say thank your for their service. Even better if it is an old CRT that has a formidable weight. Those old plasmas really sucked up the juice also.
Many TVs/DVDs have built in wireless internet now. =TV is becoming the computer. Many phones do TV now.
Many indoctrinated TV viewers are upset about this. Gov/medi is very upset since they are losing control.
But look at Fukushima -did the TV actually cover this well or was the internet(s) better?

Unless you are a daytrader (minute by minute trader) this volatility will eat you alive and send you to the bottom.
Long physical silver and gold. Short fiat currencies and all stocks.
The shorts in paper gold took a huge beating today. Some of these are fairly large players into the 100,000s of millions $. -These people are most likely done in their careers. That is how volatile this market is and stocks are worse. -And it is getting more volatile.
=Big/Big players are making large $$$ --> everyone else is losing $. Holding fiat currency is losing money -except for Swiss Franc.
=Stay out of this market except for physical silver/gold. -But be careful of fake bullion/coins/bars now.

I still think it may be worse when the American military was told to "stand-down" or turn off their radiation monitors (aircraft etc). -But at least they took the info and got the hell out of there 200km if I remember and many military personal were sent home.
Either way, both failed the Japanese people. -Sameful, and all the Japanese politicans and American military should bow-down and resign. You have failed to protect the people you have sworn to serve. If I see you on the street -expect me to turn my back to you.
Samething happened on the WestCoast US however. -Obama turned off the radiation warning system or said they were being serviced. -This is an online system that anyone can see. Shameful conduct by the Supreme Dictator.

if you ever go to a "fun house" they have these curvy clown mirrors that can make things look thinner or wider. -Get one of these for your home and you will always be happy with your look.
The have those plexi-glass boxes that they use to grow square melons. -If your head is still growing maybe they could make one for your melon to keep it from getting too big. -It would be hard to wear something like that in summer though.

The Gov will try to keep these radioactive people "fenced in" and that is what you are seeing. Dosimeters (sticks/card) and the charger are very cheap and should have been dispersed from day 1.
Eat lots of (non-radioactive) fresh veggies, rice, water. Maybe look into zeolite or DMSA to pull out the metals -but be careful since Calcium is also a metal (bone-loss)
I would move out as a family if I could. If that is not possible -move the kids to others and stay behind for the work/home. Get a good radiation meter that is portable and test everything to keep yourself safe.

Pork-Chop head is just another media mouth for the oil globalists. Hybrids/Electrics and small efficient cars are the future and the upward rising trend right now. People are buying the Leaf and the Prius is still very popular. More people are walking and riding bikes.
Big tech in refurbing the NiMh Prius batteries and reusing them for other things (bikes, scooters etc). May try my desulfator on them ~ $5-10 each 7Ah.
Don't use gas for the day --> take a "free" lunch break or dinner. The costs really add up and will easily pay the monthly BBC/NHK fee.

All the fiat currencies are being devalued together in mass by the globalists (gold/silver up). =Things are costing more.
If you salary is stagnant and your costs are going up you are feeling the pinch. -Same for businesses.
Good time to be a farmer or grow your own. Lots of good deals when people are forced to sell. Buy local and keep your local economy moving.
I went all-in on physical silver. Still keep some fiat currency, but only enough for a month or two. Stocked up on commodities like food. Cut back on using gas and will bike/walk more. Looking very intently on upgrading my Mountain bikes (old USA GT Zaskar/Xizang) and stocking old parts.

Allow the people to invest in these green technologies and allow local govs to look at the plans and decide. If people have access to solar panels and knew the costs they would be better informed to buy -same with local Govs/business.
Nobody thought electric/hybrid cars would sell -but now it is a viable business model and the battery packs are being refurbished and used for other uses (home etc).
I have seen solar panels actually on sale now. -Competition is driving the costs lower and people are buying more with the expanding market.

A good firewall, spyware should limit this garbage. Seems like a ploy to introduce legislation to take control of the internets. Gov already tracks you thru your wireless/cellphone so why would they want to protect you from being tracked thru your computer/websites.
Google/NSA was really the start of this tracking on the Internet.

If I was using a 30-40yr old Sony TV guaranteed for life. -I would return it and be upset also. People expect these products to work no matter what foolishness the Gov get involved in. I would complain to the NHK guy also.
What is going on here? Why are you taking away my forced propaganda? Changes like this may force many away from TV and focus more on other endeavors of life.
Handing the NHK guy your old TV and demand non-payment for NHK fee would be a funny one. All these TVs in the trash must be good for some type of prank --> could work for many years with all the free TV laying around.

Having pitchers throw puff-balls to raise the score may make the game more exciting, but in the ends ruins the game and turns off the fans. People are afraid of real competition it seems, but it does play into the fascist/socialist "too-big-to-fail" model better.

With the massive populace in China -China needs a very good rail system. Fix the problems and run at 1/2 speed until you are 100% satisfied what you have is safe.
People always want to be the fastest -but that is not always what you need (is practical). In Japan it was rail always on time to the second -that has changed somewhat due to similar accidents. What is practical, needed should be the focus. What do the Chinese people want/need in rail?
The people are right and the engineering answers are needed to find out what went wrong in order to fix it. -I would not accept their apology $$$ until those conditions are met.
