Masuzoe wins Tokyo gubernatorial election Former health minister Yoichi Masuzoe has been elected as Tokyo's next governor. He replaces Naoki Inose, who resigned late last year over a money scandal. With all of the ballots counted, Masuzoe won more than 2.1 million votes in Sunday's election -- scoring a big victory over 15 other candidates. Masuzoe said his first task as governor is to make Tokyo the best city in the world. He said he wants to take on the pressing issues of welfare, disaster prevention and the economy. He said most of all, he wants to make the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics a success. TEPCO to review erroneous radiation data: The operator of the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant has decided to review radiation data after finding the initial readings may be much lower than actual figures. Tokyo Electric Power Company, or TEPCO, says it has detected a record high 5 million becquerels per liter of radioactive strontium in groundwater collected last July from one of the wells close to the ocean. That's more than 160,000 times the state standard for radioactive wastewater normally released into the sea. Based on the result, levels of radioactive substances that emit beta particles are estimated to be 10 million becquerels per liter, which is more than 10 times the initial reading. TEPCO initially said it had detected 900,000 becquerels per liter of beta-emitting substances. The utility attributes the error to the improper measuring method that had been used until last October. It says the readings of radioactivity can be measured as being lower than they actually are in the highly contaminated water. TEPCO plans to review other data measured with the improper method, including the radiation level of around 300 tons of waste water that leaked from a storage tank in August. An initial test of the leaked water found it contained up to 80-million becquerels per liter of beta-emitting substances, including strontium.

They had a chance. They chose money over morals. They have chosen badly.

Will Tokyo even HAVE a healthy enough population to host the 2020 Summer Games? Perhaps I am too cynical...or simply uneducated regaarding the health of the Japanese People. And that snow is the "kiss of death" with all of the radioactive fallout present in the snow.....I'm so wishing the children weren't playing in it!
And this is the Japan's biggest snowfall in 78 YEARS!!! YIKES! There has been so MUCH snow everywhere, even FAKE snow! I think that radioactive isotopes are best "moved" through snow flurries, snowstorms, blizzards. They want to make sure that everyone gets a REAL GOOD DOSE OF RADIATION hence the many snowfalls that are lasting much longer than usual...setting new "records" in fact in many places. I just find it DISGUSTING that the genocide by radioactivity proxy has obviously been in the plans for decades. We get cancer, we die. Sinister.
The "powers that be" have murdered the people of the world as it states that there will be MANY DEATHS in 5-6 years! Deadly radiation is THE recipe "guaranteed" to kill within 10-15 years or as little as 5-6 years. Japan is readying for the massive deaths that will be taking place in a few years. So many children with thyroid cancer...it's just inhumane. And that last bit of info speaks volumes. And in Vermont?
Thanks so much for sharing missing sky! Bless you for having to read this looong comment! lol You have the patience of a saint! :)
