An action packed update for you today.

TEPCO is Broke trying to pay for compensation to people, clean up this disaster, and "cover it up" one might say. The Government (well, actually the people need to pay the government, so the government can pay TEPCO, so Tepco can pay the people) Tepco lives, people die. It's just that simple.

Economic down turn for Japan blamed on "other things" than Fukushima nuclear disaster. Is anyone surprised?

According to the Russian news agency Prima Media, from January to September in this year, the radiation dose exceeded of Russia standard value was detected from 319 goods, such as used car, food, medical supplies and others which were imported from Japan, to the Russian Far East ports.

The Russia customhouse did not accept importing 284 goods, then, send back to Japan.

145 goods send back to Japan in whole last year, due to the radiation dose exceeded of standard value was detected in the Russian Far East area.

But, It will reach almost double compared to 2011 with this year, even until September.

Palisades nuclear plant in Michigan had yet ANOTHER problem. It's one of the Worst Preforming nuclear plants in the country. Leaking radioactive tritium. This time, the plant leaked at a DIFFERENT place than before and "they just can't figure it out"... See:

Okay, so we have TEPCO explaining why they need to increase a measly 100 decontamination workers to a "whopping" three hundred. Um, I think they need a LOT more than THAT, but apparently "cost" is an "issue".

Kevin Kamps, Beyond Nuclear, joins Thom Hartmann. You would think Japan would do everything it could to avoid another nuclear disaster - but you'd be wrong. What's the latest news coming out of Japan right now - and has America learned anything from the Fukushima devastation?

The ridiculous mascot Japan is using to warn children not to walk in radioactive puddles, etc, is named Kibitan. Absolutely ridiculous! Meaning:

New camera shows radiation levels

Japan's space agency and a leading machinery maker have developed a camera for use at the crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant. The device is designed to help in cleaning up leaked radioactive materials.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and Mitsubishi Heavy Industry unveiled a prototype of the camera on Thursday. The device has a sensor for high radiation.

The camera shows levels of radioactivity on a monitor in red, yellow or green for different levels of contamination.

The developers say it will help protect people working on decontamination and check the effectiveness of their work.

The device can capture views of 180 degrees -- much wider than those of other cameras.

The makers plan to market the product by next March.

Unit 3 Fuel Pool Repairs Support 'Detonation' and More Contamination Found in Fish and Tokyo Suburb

Events in Japan begin the Fairewinds weekly podcast this week. Gundersen analyzes TEPCO's recently released plans to install a protective cover over Unit 3 and discovers more proof that a detonation (not deflagration) did indeed occur in Unit 3 back in March 2011. Gundersen then analyzes recent radiation readings in Japan and concludes that the contamination is not abating.

It just keeps going from Bad to Worse. It's not bad enough that Japan denies the severity of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident, now it has the audacity to claim that burning it's radioactive Sludge as it turns to Methane (and considered Safe fuel)! It's bad enough that they are trucking radioactive debris all over Japan to lose the control group of health effects in the future. I'm just sitting here shaking my head once again. This is Absolute Madness! And Why the Hell do they say that Japan is OBLIGATED to store the radioactive sludge in Every Prefecture, can't they just keep it all localized in the Exclusion Zone? WTF. Two words: Felonious Criminality.

NGO's to examine Tsunami debris on the West Coast of the United States and offer less than a quarter of a million dollars to help clean up the debris. What a JOKE!
