Just my luck to be in Germany during Chernobyl! How easily the clock turns back to April 1986
remembering the precautions that were taken to avoid bringing fallout into a home.
I also remember the horrible immune system health disorders that I endured during 1987, 3 back to
back.
My mother was with me in Germany and died of cancer 6 years after Chernobyl and did not eat
processed foods, smoke, drink, or have any lifestyle factors that were conducive to cancer. It
was Chernobyl.
I also aggressively detoxed with clay and other herbs and she did not.
What I did then, is what I'm doing now.
* Protect the Thyroid
* Detox specifically for heavy metals
* Detox on a regular basis as my body requires
* Support a robust immune system
* Eat Super Foods and Antioxidants daily.
And all of our animals will also be included in this special care. We have been aggressive with
the above since March 18.
Living in South/Central Wa state, we are also outside a lot daily and experiencing NONE of the

attributed to the very aggressive detox.

If you are detoxing with clay, be sure to drink TONS of water, and its not a bad idea to have
some fiber like psyllium or ground flaxseed.... its just as important to keep the system going as
it is to absorb the toxins
into the clay. I've seen folks do a 10 oz glass of filtered water with the powdered clay and
fiber together. Then chase with another 10 oz of water. Some put the diatomacious earth in there
too. Start with small amounts and work your way up. Each person is different, and allow for your
body to adapt to what you are giving it.
Sometimes cayenne capsules, along with probiotics are taken with the water chaser to the clay.
Cayenne increases peristalsis (movement) and circulation.... Probiotics help re-establish the
positive bacteria in the digestive tract.
Its also a good idea to take some mineral suppliments... Because prolongued use of clays can create
a deficit in some other things... If you notice heart palpitations, try adding magnesium. Or stop
the clay. A suggestion for including magnesium is to have some fresh lemon tea.
That is, squeeze 1 lemon, hot water, add trace minerals. If you want, add some honey or xylitol
or liquid stevia. Sugar is not so good for the immune system, so start avoiding it.... its not
easy!!!--http://enenews.com/fukushima-

I live on Vancouver Island and everytime I go outside to wait for a bus to go downtown I get red,

One of my cats is not feeling well.
Canada does not tell us anything
but I see a haze some days and dark clouds on sunny days. I wonder if the dark clouds on sunny
days are from Fukushima.
They are still spraying us with chemtrails, to make rain, to wash
the radiation down on us. Canada and US

In the last month we have received 22 vehicle air filters from safecasters. These came from
vehicles used primarily in Fukushima City, Tokyo, and Iwaki. The Fukushima City filters had
total radiation levels that averaged about 2.0 uSv/hour, while the Tokyo filters averaged 0.2
uSv/hour. The filters are analyzed by gamma spectrometry. We found cesium-134, cesium-137,
cobalt-60, and uranium and its decay products in the dusts trapped on these filters. These dusts
contain enough breathable radioactive particles that people need to use care in removing and
handling used car filters from Northeastern Japan. Our group is also looking to test school yard

One of the first tongue cancer symptoms to be noticed is a white / red patch on the
tongue. The patch may be situated anywhere on the tongue. Occasionally, some people notice a
white / red spot on the tongue. The spot is firm and has raised edges. With time, the patch grows
in size and becomes firmer and harder.
%u2022 The central portion of the patch is relatively soft and bleeds easily. Bleeding occurs when
pressure is exerted over the cancer spots, during chewing, drinking or swallowing, and the spots
break open. The cancer spot is extremely tender and can not endure pressure of any kind, thus
resulting in easy bleeding. Unexplained bleeding is an important indication and tongue cancer
symptom.
%u2022 Pain while chewing and / or swallowing are other common manifesting tongue cancer symptoms.
%u2022 Some individuals also develop an ulcer or a sore on the tongue, or within the oral cavity,
which shows no signs of resolving or subsiding.
%u2022 A continual sore throat is a major tongue cancer symptom.
%u2022 Numbness in the tongue and mouth occur commonly.
%u2022 Change in voice, rigid tongue with reduced movements, and bad breath are other associated
tongue cancer symptoms. The patient also complains of difficulty in opening the mouth and the
presence of a mass in the neck.
%u2022 Occasionally, some people even complain of ear pain.
%u2022 A lump at the back of the throat, enlarged neck lymph glands, unexplained and excessive weight
loss, and an alteration in the way the dentures normally used to fit inside the mouth are
frequently seen tongue cancer symptoms.
In case you notice or experience any of these clinical features, you must visit your doctor /
health care professional immediately. Never neglect these symptoms. Tongue cancer ought to be
taken seriously, since the tumor tends to spread rapidly to the gums, jaws and throat.
The effective and successful management of tongue cancer needs sufficient knowledge about the
symptoms of the disease, and an early diagnosis of the condition. Some symptoms of carcinoma
tongue are quite prominent, whereas some are hard to detect. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment
is the only way to limit its progress.

In terms of the EPA switching over to the FDA's Derived Intervention Level (DIL)
1) A great explanation is in this post: Japan Nuclear Radiation In San Francisco Milk Exceeds
Infant Dose In Less Than 3 Gallons
2) Realize that DIL is not a level of safety... It is a level so high that a single dose will
cause severe health effects. I am actually in the process of writing a post about a local EPA
official who didn't get the Federal memo that the EPA was covering this up by using the FDA level
and admitted to a local newspaper that doses above 3 pCi/L are harmful.
The main thing to keep in mind is the EPA safety level is 3 pCi/L under which it can not be
statistically proven there are health effects. It is set to allow a total radiation dose of 4
millirems per year which equates to 1 death from cancer per million.
Using the FDA's derived intervention level allows for cancer in 1 out of 2,200 people and DEATH
FROM CANCER IN 1 OUT OF4,400. By no means is this a "safe" level and the FDA website even says
so.
Also, don't be fooled by comparisons to background radiation or dosages from x-ray, ct-scans or
airline flights. There are entirely different than the dose you receive from internal emitters.
Internal emitting radiation is much more dangerous by a factor of a trillion.
Even with the external emitting radiation, here are some statistic that might wake you up, pulled
from the American Cancer Society, NJDEP and Health Physics Society...

Do remove nuclear fallout radionuclide ions such as Plutonium, Uranium, Iodine, Radium, Cesium,
Strontium and so forth. These are the 'bad-boys' and major players that we really need to get out
of the water. Thus RO units are a great product.
There are a few limitations to what RO Units will do. So for example, deuterium and tritium, the
so-called 'heavy water' molecules, with an extra neutron or two, are not removed by RO units.
Some gasses (bubbles) can contain some radioactive particles. These will also not be removed by
RO units.

items that I have found...
1. Hothouse Cucmbers and Tomatoes:
Eurofresh Farms: Located in Arizona. They use a HEPA filtration system to filter their indoor
air. They water with well water that is filtered through a reverse osmosis filtration system.
They test their water for radioactive particles, radon, and heavy metals. Their internal
detection guidelines exceed FDA standards. They mentioned that the FDA have allowable levels of
contaminants that Eurofresh does not allow. Check out their video on their website. Looks like
they put a lot of resources towards keeping out contaminants. Eurofresh products are available at
Whole Foods Markets and I've also found them at my local Albertson's market in Southern
California.
2. Peanut, Almond, and Other Nut Butters, and Tahini:
Once Again Nut Butter, Inc.: They bottle all their nut butters and tahini one year prior to the
"best by" date. Their Organic, roasted tahini is made in the US.
3. Food for Life sprouted products. We buy their Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted whole grain cereal (my kids
love this with bananas and fruit mixed in), english muffins, breads, tortillas. Their breads,
english muffins and tortillas can be freezed (Whole Foods Market does this).
Code: L0321
Year of production: K or L
K = 2010
L = 2011
0321: Take the last number and add it to the first three numbers. This gives you 33, which is the
julian date.
L0321 = Packaged on the 33rd day of 2011.
4. Heinz Ketchup: Specifically, I called for the Heinz Organic Ketchup, but the code should apply
to all:
Example:
QP0M01: bottled December 1, 2010
QP = Plant code, Made in Ontario, Canada
0 = Year bottled, 2010

H=August, J=September, K=October, L=November, M=December, note the letter "I" is skipped)
01: Day of month bottled, 1st
5. Bob's Red Mill: All items are packaged two year prior to "best by" date, and last for two
years after the "best by" date. Best if you freeze. Located in Oregon.
6. Cereal:
Cascadian Farms. Multigrain Cereal, organic: packaged 310 prior to "best by" date. This specific
cereal is produced in Canada. Country of origin varies with their products.
7. Frozen Veggies and Fruits:
Columbia River Organics, All items from the US

I am not discounting your concern here but I don't see how buying pre-Fukushima foods is a
plausible long-term solution or even an option for many of us. CS-137 has a half life of 30
years.
Unless you wrap your entire house in plastic, filter your air and water supply, have a walk- in
freezer or a green house for the next 30 years and never leave you are bound to be exposed
somehow (everyone on earth has been exposed to Chernobyl whether through inhalation or
ingestion). I don't see how posting a "safe list" of pre-Fukushima foods will do anything other
than spark panic-buying.
The entire west coast did NOT suffer the same levels of radiation. In fact intercontinental US
milk supply suffered higher exposures. Look at the EPA website's RadNet data. Current and past
tests show no radio nucleotides in Oregon or Seattle/Tacoma area milk. Intercontinental US states
show much higher concentrations: Arkansas, Missouri, and Tennessee have more, even triple the
amounts. Vermont milk actually tested positive for CS-137 on one occasion. Though I am unclear
why it did not show up again because of it's long half life. Maybe that cow was pulled from
testing??
I am so disappointed in the human response here: shun the affected? Every man for himself? I am
for self-reliance and being prepared but it seems to me this is everybody's problem now and
FOREVER as long as we deem profit more desirable than human life regarding technological
atrocities like nuclear power, nanotechnology, biowarfare. These are just awful choices being
made in the name of profit and we can and must do better for ourselves and our children.
Otherwise we are silently assenting to extinct ourselves and make the planet uninhabitable for
all life. Very sad. Wish instead that we were filled with a deep and abiding desire to protect
all life and insist that corporations and government make it their imperative.

i. I am not suggesting pre-Fukushima foods as a long term solution, nor that it solves anything,
nor that it absolves anyone from fighting against unsafe sources of power, nor anything else.
Essentially, I'm being pragmatic. I can't do much about cesium. However, from what I've heard, it
isn't taken up by children's bodies as quickly or in as large quantities as the iodine, which is
immediately sucked in and stored in the thyroid for about 100 days.
I-131, with a half life of 8 days, is almost completely gone in 81 days. I'm figuring doing this
till 81 days past the dates when this site shows MDA levels, for as many foods as I'm able to
control. That's not everything, and it may not be enough, but it's the best I can do.
I'm not promoting this, or what I'm doing, as a plan for anyone. Just being open in case it's
helpful to people trying to avoid the worst of it, especially for
kids.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/nod e/3361?page=1

AREAS WHOSE FOOD PRODUCTS MAY NOW CARRY RADIOACTIVE FALLOUT
Helpful Quote from Vesica.org
The Entirety of the Northern Hemisphere around the world is affected by fallout, as well as the
Pacific Ocean.
Most Serious: Japan, Pacific Ocean, and Pacific Rim States
Most Contaminated food areas of North America (based on fallout wind spread patterns charted by
European scientific research agencies) in order of likely intensity of contamination, starting
with the most contaminated:
Entire Pacific Coast (note that much of the produce in North America comes from this region,
especially California)
Northern U.S. States close to Canada, and Canadian areas close to the U.S. (including Toronto
etc.)
Eastern States
Central States of the U.S., and Far Northern areas of Canada
SAFEST AREAS OF ORIGIN FOR FOOD PRODUCTS
The majority of contamination is in the northern hemisphere and the Pacific Ocean region. Most of
the Southern Hemisphere has little to no fallout (the exception is the Southern Hemisphere in the
Pacific; Australia for example is finding radioactive fish in the ocean, so although they may not
get much atmospheric fallout they are affected by the massive contamination of the Pacific
Ocean.)
Also note that radioactive contamination is being found on non-food products being imported from
Japan.
Safest Areas of Origin for food products:
Central America (avoid items from the Pacific Coast area of Mexico)
South America
Africa
Europe is also far less contaminated that North America, although it is also experiencing
significant fallout; so it is a better source for products than North America, however not as
good as Southern Hemisphere sources. (However some South American produce may contain high levels
of pesticides not allowed to be used in the U.S. or Canada.)
ITEMS OF SPECIAL CONCERN FROM AFFECTED AREAS
Most affected:
All Ocean-Derived Products from the Pacific Ocean: the Fukushima accident dumped millions of
times the normal background levels of radiation into the Pacific, where it is affecting the
entire ocean (most toxic near Japan and bordering areas, but now reaching to the US West Coast:
debris from the Tsunami in Japan is also expected to start washing up on the West Coast in the
near future.) There are already reports of Pacific Fish showing radioactive contamination.
This indicates a need to be cautious regarding:
All Pacific Ocean Fish
Sea Salt or Ocean Minerals derived from the Pacific
All Pacific Seaweed and Sea Vegetables (order Atlantic Ocean seaweed at
http://www.theseaweedman.com )
Milk and all Dairy Products (butter, cheese etc.) from all animals: Cows, Goats, and Sheep (Dairy
products have the most intense immediate absorption of radiation from fallout). Radioactive
contamination of milk has been found throughout the United States, especially on the West Coast.
Any plant with a large surface area exposed to the air while growing: The most intense radiation
absorption in plants is through rain falling directly on the leaves of the plant, where it is
directly absorbed. Rainwater absorbed through the earth into the plant is already of much lower
radiation intensity due to the filtering affect of the soil.
All broad leaf plants and plants with large surface areas grown in the open air (rather than in
greenhouses) are the most contaminated, for instance Salad Greens, Spinach, Cabbage etc.
Contaminated crops in California (carrying radioactive iodine and cesium) have already been
confirmed by UC Berkeley.
[Carrots and other root vegetables are less contaminated due to growing underground.]
Water from Rainwater or Open Lake type catchments: instead drink bottled water, or water from
underground wells or other underground sources (radiation is greatly reduced when the particles
have to travel through the ground.)
PREGNANT (OR BREASTFEEDING) WOMEN AND YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD ESPECIALLY BE CAREFUL REGARDING THESE
ITEMS COMING FROM FALLOUT AFFECTED AREAS

Chernobyl has provided a LOT of data on what is safer and what isn't. Specific plant species
uptakes of various isotopes are known, as are techniques to decrease uptake. The same is true of
different animal species. For instance, goats uptake more than cows.
Going forward, provided there isn't another major release of isotopes, the problem will be
biological concentration as plants, then animals, selectively take chemicals into their cells.
Again, areas in Europe have BEEN having a much greater problem than we currently do. We just
didn't have it staring us in the face, so most of us aren't educated on the subject. Yet.
Personally, I'm salting my food with 'lite' salt for the potassium content and taking a calcium
supplement. If supplementation works to cut isotope uptake for plants, milk cows, and meat
animals, it ought to help me too.
I'm ALSO going to be paying close attention to the voting history of every candidate in every
election. No one who supports nuclear power will EVER get my vote. We have to shut the technology
down. No one should be allowed to contaminate the entire planet with something that can destroy
DNA for generations.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.

Hi,
Birdseye frozen vegetables follow the following convention for their packing dates:
Only the first 5 digits of the code are needed:
YPPMD
Where Y = year, 0=2010, 1=2011
Where PP = plant (don't care)
Where M = month, 1-9,O,N,D Where 1 is January and D is December
Where D = Day, A-Z,1,2,3,4,5 Where A is 1 and 5 is 31
So March 11, 2011 would be 1XX3KXXXX
Just bought 40 gallons of pre-fukushima organic apple juice bottled in Washington State that my
5-year-old autistic son drinks. I figure why take the chance. We'll drink it soon enough either
way.
Have a happy day.

Organic Valley was one of the few companies to answer every request I made, quickly and in a
friendly way. Organic Prairie is the same company and were equally, delightfully helpful.
Hain was difficult - they would give me shelf life but not say where anything was from (my Canola
Oil says it could be made in US, Switzerland or Argentina).
Trader Joes would only tell me that at a southern California store the organic milk would be from
southern California. The local store was willing to call suppliers but they came back with
estimates.
I loved how proud Smart Chicken was to tell me ALL their chickens are from Nebraska.
I have learned a lot from doing this, including how fast our food gets processed (I was somewhat
astonished at the speed of chicken, for example, and sour cream).
BTW, I rarely mentioned radiation concerns to any of these companies except the ones that had
seaweed or Japanese products. I just talked about freshness and shelf life.

Where are you buying "Smart chicken" (which store)?
Some other helpful food info...
We're drinking SACO mix n drink powdered milk from Costco packed before March 11th. I have to say
the stuff tastes 99% like real milk. I was pleasantly surprised. It expires in Jan 2013, so we're
stocking up on that.
Organic Valley was very helpful when I called about their milk. For this reason, I will drink it
again if the levels dissapear. Other milk companies acted more annoyed when we called.
Tillamook has cheeses aged and packed pre-Fukushima. Their sharp cheddar is aged 9 months so
we're stocking up on that too. The label says clearly "aged 9 months" and the company verified it
by phone.
We're drinking reverse osmosis water from Costco (kirkland signature drinking water). Costco
confirmed it is reverse osmosis.
Buying produce grown in greenhouses whenever possible. Hate to say it, but we're choosing the
non-organic versions over the organic versions if they are grown in a greenhouse. Pick your
poison.
The companies I've called expect me to say I'm calling about radiation, so don't be afraid to
tell them if they ask. The only people that seemed surprised when I told them why I was calling
were the folks who make organic chicken breasts for Costco. Can't remember the company name, but
they were pleasant and helpful.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/

Sad, but true. During a radionuclide storm (nuclear fallout event), goats, sheep and deer
bioconcentrate radionuclides more efficiently than cattle.
This is due to the preferred (goat, sheep & deer) diet, which consists of broadleaf weeds
(forbs). The large surface area of forb leaves, catch more radioactive dust and black rain than
the grasses.
Forbs generally absorb the radionuclides from dust and rain more effectively than the grasses.
Thus dairy products from sheep, goats and raindeer are more dangerous during nuclear fallout
events than cow'w milk.

Lucky's carries KerryGold butter which purports to be imported from Ireland. I know our No Cal
butter probably has very little CS 137 but the very thought of it being there at all is
unappetizing to me. So I eschewed my regular Land O Lakes butter (which clearly says "Real
California Milk" on the label) to get some KerryGold. I have to say it tastes a lot better. But
then I read on the internet that Ireland has CS 137 in their Milk too. This is a fun game but it
just seems too hard to avoid the poison. Maybe its a good time to become a Breatharian, they
claim to live forever with no food. Then again "Prana" probably has Cesium in it now
too.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/node /3361?page=2
Many food options are available once we discover one may not be safe. Try another brand, just
like you did and once that option doesn't work try a new product. Coconut oil is a wonderful and
nourishing fat. It has a two year shelf life. Garden of Life is my favorite. Many are from the
phillipines so I'm not sure how contanimated it is but it probably is still old product at this
point because it has such a long shelf life. Many jars of salsa are

"U.S. daily press reports have indicated that radioactive strontium 90 from the fallout of
thermonuclear explosions is nothing to worry about. Japanese scientists do not agree. On April 8
scientists working under Japan's Atomic Energy Commission will present a report to the United
Nations Radiation Committee. Its gist: strontium 90 should be studied carefully, and much more
must be known about it before it can be written off as harmless to the human
species.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/
node/4716
In their small sample, however, the researchers found a good deal of variation between
individuals. The rapidly growing bones of young children averaged three to four times as much
strontium 90 as the bones of adults. Even certain adults had ten times more than others. One
sample of adult shinbone from Vancouver, B.C. had 75 times as much as the average.

The B.C. Centre for Disease Control is stressing that radiation originating from an
earthquake-stricken nuclear power plant in Japan poses "no health risk" to people in British
Columbia.
In a Monday (March 21) update on its website, the centre confirmed that it had been told by
Health Canada that "minute" amounts of radiation from the Fukushima Daiichi plant were detected
by monitoring stations in the province.
"The amounts of radiation from Japan detected over the past few days in BC measure 0.0000005
millisieverts, which is significantly less than those coming from other sources," Monday's update
stated.
"Scientists measure exposure to ionizing radiation using a unit of measurement called a sievert.
The average Canadian is exposed to between 2 and 3 millisieverts of radiation annually from
background radiation."
Today (March 22), the centre said in an update: "Health Canada anticipates that the quantity of
radiation reaching Canada, would be negligible and not pose a health risk to Canadians. We are
expecting very slight increases in radiation, smaller than the normal day to day fluctuations
until a week after the reactors are stabilized."

it is not stereo, and it won't find a "sound-object" for you - but if you spend some time
analysing a field recording and isolate the unique features of a sound - e.g. by looking beyond
frequency filters to spectral features like noisiness, brightness and envelope features, you
could then run two analyzer~ objects - one each for L & R - and then try to filter out whatever
is not matching your target parameters and then measure the loudness in each channel. this is
just a guess, and I'm sure there's much more knowledgeable folks who actually know what they're
talking about.--http://old.nabble.com/audio-an alysis-tools-in-max-msp-td31539480.htm l
There are three kinds of radioactive material: there are gamma rays: initially when the nuclear
reactors blew they emitted large clouds of xenon and krypton gases. Those are noble gases. They
don't react with your skin or anything but they emit gamma rays. So the readings you saw with
people walking around with the Geiger counters were from essentially being in a cloud of gamma
rays hitting them from the outside. And that's significant but it is also dispersed over your
entire body. To my mind, the bigger problem, are the two ways that radioactive material decays
and those are called beta particles and alpha particles. They don't travel as far but they have
an enormous amount more energy than a gamma ray. So if they lie on your skin, you are just fine.
You can wash it off and life goes on. The problem is if they get inside they can selectively go
to an organ and bombard a very small piece of tissue with a lot of exposure and potentially cause
a cancer and that is what we call a hot particle.
All of these particles are radioactive. But when you talk about contamination it means almost
always that one of these particles gets attached to an organ and begins to bombard that
organ.--http://www.chrismartenson.com/

Where is the estimate of inhaling 10 particles per day? I didn't hear it in part 1... And I'm
also not sure why it matters how many particles are inhaled versus the radioactivity of those
particles (i.e., decays per second).
I should point out that we have a long, consistent set of measurements of radioactive fission
products in our air filter measurements. And even on our single highest spike in air
concentration (I-131, 4.3E-6 Bq/L, on 3/23-24), I estimate that one would only breathe in about
0.03 radioactive decays per day, or one every 35 days [see correction in comment].
Also, it turns out that about 50% of our exposure from natural radioactive sources is from the
inhalation of radioactive particles. This is primarily due to the decay daughters of Radon-222,
which create "hot particles" of radioactive Lead, Bismuth, and Polonium in the air.
I posted this table earlier in the week on another thread, but it's worth repeating here. Here's
a summary of the total breakdown of background exposure from UNSCEAR 2000 Report Vol. I, Annex B:
Exposures from natural radiation sources, primarily Table 31: Average worldwide exposure to
natural radiation sources:
Source Average annual effective dose (microSieverts) Percent
Total cosmic and cosmogenic 390 16.3%
External terrestrial radiation Outdoors 70 2.9%
Indoors 410 17.1%
Inhalation exposure Uranium and thorium series 6 0.3%
Radon-222 1,150 47.9%
Radon-220 100 4.2%
Total inhalation exposure 1,260 52.5%
Ingestion exposure Potassium-40 170 7.1%
Uranium and thorium series 120 5.0%
Total ingestion exposure 290 12.1%
Total 2,400 100.0%--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/no de/4459
I just realized that I made a mistake in that earlier post when I estimated the number of I-131
decays one would be breathing per day at the peak of our measurements (I have since struck out
the error).
In order to do a proper estimate, one needs to divide up the total volume someone breathes in a
day into individual breaths. One needs to use the number of liters per breath, the duration of
each breath, and the total number of breaths per day. I used these average numbers:
Duration of breath: 15 per minute
Number of breaths per day: 22,000 per day
Number of liters breathed per day: 6600 L/day
Liters per breath: 0.30 L
Using 4.3E-6 Bq/L, then the number of decays of I-131 breathed per day would have been 0.11 per
day, or 1 every 9 days.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/nod e/4459
Hi BC, I think your point is right on - that exposure to the fission products would not occur
just from decays while they are in the air in our lungs, but what they are attached to matters,
since they may build up in the lungs. The radioactive isotopes are probably attached to small
aerosol particles, but not much is known about this yet.
My earlier estimate is limited since it doesn't account for buildup, but at least it can be
directly compared to the radon estimate below. The radon daughters also attach to small air
particles, so they probably exhibit the same behavior as fission products from Japan in terms of
getting stuck inside our lungs. One huge difference is that some of the radon daughters are alpha
emitters, so the actual dose (not just the decay rate) will be much much larger from the radon
progenies than the dose from fission products, which are beta/gamma emitters. So comparing the
fission product estimate to the radon estimate at least gives some sense of the scale between the
two.
This potential for lung buildup is taken into account when calculating inhalation exposure, as we
do in our dose conversions - it is not done using my simple estimate above. We use standard
inhalation dose conversions which account for this.

BC was guessing this since often the three isotopes have roughly similar activities (decays per
second). On our peak day for air, there were five isotopes measured:
I-131: 4.3E-6 Bq/L
Cs-134: 1.1E-6 Bq/L
Cs-137: 1.2E-6 Bq/L
I-132: 1.1E-6 Bq/L
Te-132: 0.88E-6 Bq/L
So the others would approximately double the total number of "decays per second."
Of course, the total dose from all of these is the more important number - not all decays are
equal in this sense. This is quantified in terms of airplane flights in our table.

Among the residents of Belarus, the Russian Federation and Ukraine, there had been up to the year
2005 more than 6,000 cases of thyroid cancer reported in children and adolescents who were
exposed at the time of the accident, and more cases can be expected during the next decades.
Notwithstanding the influence of enhanced screening regimes, many of those cancers were most
likely caused by radiation exposures shortly after the accident. Apart from this increase, there
is no evidence of a major public health impact attributable to radiation exposure two decades
after the accident. There is no scientific evidence of increases in overall cancer incidence or
mortality rates or in rates of non-malignant disorders that could be related to radiation
exposure. The incidence of leukaemia in the general population, one of the main concerns owing to
the shorter time expected between exposure and its occurrence compared with solid cancers, does
not appear to be elevated. Although those most highly exposed individuals are at an increased
risk of radiation-associated effects, the great majority of the population is not likely to
experience serious health consequences as a result of radiation from the Chernobyl accident. Many
other health problems have been noted in the populations that are not related to radiation
exposure.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu /node/4459

You assist an evil system most effectively by obeying its orders and decrees.
An evil system never deserves such allegiance.
Allegiance to it means partaking of the evil.
A good person will resist an evil system with his or her whole soul.
It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never

This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good

How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)--http://support.microsoft.com /kb/299357
Use a manual method to reset TCP/IP
Note This section is intended for advanced computer users. If you are not comfortable with
advanced troubleshooting, ask someone for help or contact Support. For information about how to
contact Support, see the Microsoft Help and Support contact information Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/contactus
The reset command is available in the IP context of the NetShell utility. Follow these steps to
use the reset command to reset TCP/IP manually:
To open a command prompt, click Start and then click Run. Copy and paste (or type) the
following command in the Open box and then press ENTER:
cmd
At the command prompt, copy and paste (or type) the following command and then press ENTER:
netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt
Note If you do not want to specify a directory path for the log file, use the following
command:
netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
Reboot the computer.
When you run the reset command, it rewrites two registry keys that are used by TCP/IP. This has
the same result as removing and reinstalling the protocol. The reset command rewrites the
following two registry keys:
SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpi p\Parameters\
SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DHCP \Parameters\
To run the manual command successfully, you must specify a file name for the log, in which the
actions that netsh takes will be recorded. When you run the manual command, TCP/IP is reset and
the actions that were taken are recorded in the log file, known as resetlog.txt in this article.
The first example, c:\resetlog.txt, creates a path where the log will reside. The second example,
resetlog.txt, creates the log file in the current directory. In either case, if the specified log
file already exists, the new log will be appended to the end of the existing file.

I personally consider Alaska, Canada, Washington, Oregon and Northern California to be 'hot'. The
Jet Stream and rains are the big players.
That torrential March/April precipitation flushed a lot of radionuclides from the atmospheric
fallout onto the West Coast land/water/plants. Boston/Vermont/Boise had the same problem.
I semi-binged and stocked the larder with tuna, salmon, mushrooms, fresh cheese and lots of other
'high risk foods', before the radionuclide storm arrived in mid-March.
US food desirability would have been greatly enhanced with a geographically focused 60 day 'milk
dump' and 'salad toss'. Alas, that did not occur. I don't like wasting food or buying poison.
The radioactive bubble has passed, to my satisfaction, for most of the food groups now. Some
exceptions are North Pacific fish, mushrooms, goat cheese, strawberries, West Coast Wines
(vintage 2011). I will be wary of North Pacific fish for years, unless extensive testing points
to the contrary. I am semi-avoiding the other items for a little longer.
The packagers and retailers have responded with generic USA labels. Since I cannot effectively
cherry pick geography, the preferred foods for now are from Mexico and further south. That
unnecessarily punishes southern farmers.--http://www.nuc.berkeley.edu/

It seems quite unlikely that there would be high enough concentrations of radionuclids in Europe
to cause radiation symptoms, especially blistering mouths?? Perhaps this may be due to sunburn?
However, I continue to be concerned over possible exposure to "hot particles" on the Northwest
coast and find the reports of "red skin" and breathing difficultries interesting. Since running
in Vancouver a day after radiation spikes on the NW coast on May 15/16 (based on Seattle data), I
have felt restriction and burning in my lungs with intermittent dry cough (no allergies). Also an
intermittent slight tingle on one of my cheeks where there is a faint red spot that seemed like a
tiny flat blister at the beginning. Also felt, along with other people, that sun has been much
more intense and burning more easily than usual these past two months in Vancouver. I thought
perhaps this is too far-fetched, but wondering if I may have been hit by and inhaled
alpha-emitting particles. Not so unlikely after seeing the recent Pu data for
California...--http://www.nuc.berkeley .edu/node/4685

Since there have been a few recent discussions where forum participants have taken Geiger counter
measurements of radioactivity in rainwater and air filters, I thought I would collect these
threads here for ease of reference -- and for quieting the fears some still have that the fallout
from Japan is anything to worry about in the U.S.
If you take your own measurements of rain or air filters, please post your data to the forum and
I will add you to this list!
Any radioactivity detected by Geiger counters in air filters or rainwater must have a natural
source, since the radioactive isotopes we in BRAWM have detected from Japan are a small fraction
of the total natural background. The elevated radioactivities that people are observing are very
consistent with the decay products of naturally-occurring Radon gas (primarily the longer-lived
isotope Radon-222). The count rates can be many times the background level at first, but they
disappear in a few hours.
To prove that the radioactivities result from the decay of radon progeny and not radioisotopes
from Japan, a simple experiment can be done. The count rate of the sample must be measured
consistently over the course of time. In about 40 minutes, the excess count rate should be about
half of what it was at the start of the test. In about 4 hours, the count rate should have
returned to background levels. This half-life of approximately 40 minutes is a result of the
decay chain of Pb-214 (27 minutes) to Bi-214 (20 minutes), both radon decay products and strong
gamma and beta emitters. Nothing with a half-life this short has made it across the ocean from
Japan, and nothing with a half-life this short could still exist in any appreciable quantity even
a couple days after March 11.
First, a gold star goes to James, who posted on 5/11 that he had measured a high count rate when
testing his home air filter: "House return air filter high total CPM"
One week later, James took 10 minute average count rates for 4 hours and posted his data. BRAWM
members analyzed it and confirmed that the rate of decay was consistent with the decay of radon
progeny in the dust: "RETURN of the Return Air Filter"
Anonymous took Geiger counter readings of their home air filters and found elevated count rates,
although they appeared to decrease by about 50% soon after.
BC has made two measurements:
BC tested dust that was stuck on their vehicle after a dust storm but did not find any
increase in radioactivity.
BC also tested mud from their garden after a rainstorm. Our analysis is that the sample did
not have an elevated level of activity.
Another forum participant took rainwater samples from their car and measured them with a Geiger
counter. They measured count rates that were about 2 to 5 times higher than background, and they
dropped down to background in 2 hours:
The counts drop to normal background levels within 2 hours. The sample is not detected if it
is further than 2-3 cm from sensor window. When I pour water from the tap onto the car (any car)
the readings are nbl [normal background levels]. When dry wiped the sample is nbl [normal
background levels].
The decay to background levels happens in 2 hours -- not quite as long as in James' case (4
hours) -- but there is a wide spread in what this person measured as background levels, and so it
is still very consistent with the decay of radon daughters.
A forum participant found that a blogger in Missouri has been taking measurements of rainwater
collected on their car and have been finding elevated levels of radioactivity with a radiation
counter since late March. In another blog post and video, this person (unwittingly) confirms the
radon progeny explanation:
The fallout sample maxed out at 0.686 mR/hr, approximately 62 times normal background
radiation as measured in Saint Louis, Missouri. Data indicates that the radioactivity in this
sample will dissipate completely within 3 hours.
Someone asked about a website in LA that is taking measurements of rain water and air filters. It
appears that one-time readings are being taken -- but not readings over the course of a few hours
-- and they have been interpreting the results as due to fallout from Japan, which cannot
