I'm amazed there's even a few houses still standing so close to the shoreline, considering the devastation in that picture. Someone needs to find the company that built those houses and get them to rebuild everything!

If anyone wants good easy to understand technical explanation of the different terms and situations at the Fukushima #1 plant MIT's NSE has a good blog.

Status of quake-stricken reactors at Fukushima nuclear power plants

TOKYO, March 18, Kyodo
The following is the known status as of Friday night of each of the six reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant and the four reactors at the Fukushima Daini plant, both in Fukushima Prefecture, which were crippled by the magnitude 9.0 earthquake and the ensuing tsunami on March 11.
Fukushima Daiichi plant
-- Reactor No. 1 - Operation suspended after quake, cooling failure, partial melting of core, vapor vented, building housing reactor damaged March 12 by hydrogen explosion, roof blown off, seawater being pumped in.
-- Reactor No. 2 - Operation suspended after quake, cooling failure, seawater being pumped in, fuel rods fully exposed temporarily, vapor vented, building housing reactor damaged Monday by blast at reactor No. 3, blast sound heard near suppression chamber of containment vessel on Tuesday, damage to containment structure feared.
-- Reactor No. 3 - Operation suspended after quake, cooling failure, partial melting of core feared, vapor vented, seawater being pumped in, building housing reactor badly damaged Monday by hydrogen explosion, high-level radiation measured nearby on Tuesday, plume of smoke observed Wednesday and presumed to have come from spent-fuel storage pool, seawater dumped over pool by helicopter on Thursday, water sprayed at it from ground on Thursday and Friday.
-- Reactor No. 4 - Under maintenance when quake struck, no fuel rods in reactor core, temperature in spent-fuel storage pool reached 84 C on Monday, fire Tuesday possibly caused by hydrogen explosion at pool holding spent fuel rods, fire observed Wednesday at building housing reactor, pool water level feared receding, renewed nuclear chain reaction feared, only frame remains of reactor building roof.
-- Reactors No. 5, 6 - Under maintenance when quake struck, no fuel rods in reactor cores, water temperatures in spent-fuel storage pools increased to about 64 C on Thursday.
-- Spent-fuel storage pools - Cooling functions lost at pools of all reactors, water temperatures or levels unobservable at reactors No. 1 to 4, no immediate threat to water level at common spent fuel pool.
Fukushima Daini plant
-- Reactors No. 1, 2, 4 - Operation suspended after quake, cooling failure, then cold shutdown.
-- Reactor No. 3 - Operation suspended after quake, cold shutdown.
==Kyodo

pretty awesome that guy survived.

damn that report does not sound good

[1:39 p.m. ET Friday, 2:39 a.m. Saturday in Tokyo] Monitors in Sacramento, California, have detected a small amount of radioactive material from the earthquake-struck nuclear power plant in Japan, an official with the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization said. The exact amounts were not available, but were far less than what would be considered harmful to human health, the official said.

Why post this? You're only going to needlessly scare stupid people. People a lot smarter than all of us have been stating throughout this entire process that any amount of radiation that could make it all the way to the US would not pose any threat to human health.

Wrong, the info is very important. While there is now only a very small amount of particulate, there may be a larger amount of this radioactive dust finding its way to the west coast in the coming days. Us News downplays everything. I always try to plan for the worst and hope for the best.

You are a fucking retard, play in a busy street please.

This new video came out, pretty disturbing, shows a man on the roof and clearly that building gets wiped out. Sorry can't embed it.

If the media was to let us in on whats was really going on, things might get very very hectic. Just for shits and giggles I went to my local pharmacy to find a box of potassium iodine. Not one box left on the shelf and I live in New York! lol. People are very scared right now, and thats understandable.

You're right. Stupid people are very easily frightened.

Japan govt just announced that they've studied food in the region around the nuclear plant. milk & spinach. And they've found the radiation levels in it over the legal safety limits there. And some might've been already transported.

3rd Reactor has been stabilized.

wow, I get my Green tea from Japan (ito en). Never drinking that again. Ingesting radiation is much more harmful than any other form of contact.

Yes, it is stupid to be blindly fearful, but it is intelligent to be conscious and aware of the reality of the situation, and I don�t appreciate the media misconstruing info. I can understand when they're are doing this in a political forum or whatever, but when a situation as epic as this is taking place, the media must give it to us straight up. And trust me dude they are not.

Because your green tea = milk and spinach, the potentially effected foodstuffs he mentioned. Good work there.

Indeed, it's logically impossible to exaggerate more than they're already doing!
