    WOW thank you lord trancoso


    I seem to recall reading somewhere that Sitchin was wrong and Nibiru is not due for a couple of thousand years, or something like that yet

    Clif says that if Nibiru was that close the orbit of Earth around the Sun will have been affected already and I think he is right


    It sounds more like space so could it be gamma rays? there have been several bursts lately and the trend is accelerating. That will explain the changes in all the planets of the solar system? Not an astronomer myself

    PS I feel a rumble under my feet, it is rather constant and also high pitch sounds. Could the planet spin may be accelerating? Hence everything is shaking...not used to higher speed

    Total information blackout on Fukushima Unit 4 reactor raises serious questions about truth of situation
    by Ethan A. Huff
    Global Research
    March 19, 2011

    The status of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant's Unit 4 reactor is one of the most critical aspects in determining the severity of the impending nuclear meltdown. After all, the most recent temperature readings available showed that the rods there were three times hotter than they should be, which was far worse than the other reactors at the time. And yet for several days, basic information like whether or not there is actually water left in Unit 4's cooling pool, or what the current temperature is of the spent fuel rods there, is no longer being supplied and reported, at least not accurately.

    On Thursday, NaturalNews reported that the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) had announced the cooling pools in Unit 4 had run dry, and that the temperatures were spiking out of control (http://www.naturalnews.com/031734_n...). As NRC made this announcement, though, Japanese officials and spokesmen from Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO), owner of the Fukushima plant, insisted that the pools were not dry and that the situation was stable.

    Besides this conflicting and confusing information, there is the other disturbing fact that on-the-ground temperature readings of Unit 4 immediately stopped being taken the day of the NRC announcement. And since that day, there has been no official update on the temperature of the rods at Unit 4, or an actual verified account of the water status in the cooling pools.

    Oddly enough, there are now early reports beginning to emerge from TEPCO claiming that operators may be able to reconnect power to Unit 4 and several other units by Saturday (http://www.reuters.com/article/2011...). The temperature readings have mysteriously ceased, and nobody can verify whether or not there is actually water left in the cooling pools, but somehow workers are going to reconnect power to the damaged reactor? Something seems very out of place here.

    That so much of the available information on the situation is conflicting is questionable in and of itself. And the continual downplaying of the threat, despite the fact that the disaster as we currently know it to be is already the second largest nuclear catastrophe in history, is also highly suspect. There have been numerous fires, explosions, and other unknowns taking place and crews have largely had to evacuate the site to avoid radiation poisoning, but officials insist everything is just fine.

    Clearly everything is not fine, especially for the Japanese people. If you have been paying attention to the many other reports here on NaturalNews about the situation, you will quickly recognize the many serious factors at play and their numerous inconsistencies. There is an extremely dangerous plutonium-based fuel in one of the damaged reactors that may have already been, or eventually could be, released into the environment (http://www.naturalnews.com/031736_p...), an allegedly empty cooling pool exposing thousands of highly volatile fueling rods to the open air (http://www.naturalnews.com/031734_n...), and a US president telling everyone to chill out and do nothing other than watch television for further information (http://www.naturalnews.com/031735_O...).

    The people of Japan, and especially those located within close proximity to the Fukushima nuclear plant, are obviously the most threatened by the radiation situation. Many reports indicate, however, that the Japanese government is still downplaying the situation to the Japanese people even more than the US government is downplaying it to Americans.

    A recent report explains that the Japanese government deceived and withheld pertinent information from the mayor of a city 12 miles downwind of the nuclear plant - the mayor literally had to take matters into his own hands and bravely urge an evacuation of his city just last night for the people's own protection - and he did this in direct opposition to the official government position (http://www.naturalnews.com/031747_n...).

    And you can be sure that if the situation gets worse for the US, the US government will likely take a similar position and continue to insist that there is nothing to be concerned about. This is why individuals must think for themselves - rather than let the government think for them - and be prepared for whatever may come. Remember, preparedness has nothing to do with fear-mongering, and everything to do with simply being smart and staying informed about a situation. Taking practical steps to protect you and your family from potential threats is the only natural response to a situation of this magnitude.

    Japan halts sale of food from near Fukushima

    Saturday, 19 March 2011

    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/radiation-found-in-food-near-fukushima-plant-2246571.html

    Taken as pills or syrup, stable (non-radioactive) iodine can be used to help protect against thyroid cancer in the event of radiation exposure in a nuclear accident.

    "Though radioactive iodine has a short half-life of about eight days and decays naturally within a matter of weeks, there is a short-term risk to human health if radioactive iodine in food is absorbed into the human body," the IAEA said in a statement.

    NRC officials told congressional staffers in a briefing Friday that their information about radiation levels around the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear complex is fluid, and declined repeatedly to release detailed data, saying the information they have isn't reliable enough to share.

    Tokyo tap water has trace level of radiation
    Kyodo News


    Sunday, March 20, 2011

    http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20110320a2.html

    The science ministry said Saturday a minuscule amount of radioactive substances was detected in tap water in Tokyo, as well as Tochigi, Gunma, Chiba and Saitama prefectures.

    It is believed the water carried traces of radioactive iodine. Meanwhile, traces of radioactive cesium were also found in tap water in Tochigi and Gunma.

    When you look at activity around those dates, the one in January is at a lower frequency (2.0) versus (2.5) in March. The one in Feb is (2.5) but at a smaller "blast". There is activity just before the New Zealand quake, I agree.

    Now is Haarp causing the earthquakes, or are the earthquakes causing the readings?

    Either way they are related. We need to watch daily for activity on that site!!!!

    I am of the thinking that we can feel it prior to the equake through the Geo Magnetic lines, some miscall them ley lines. These are the surface geo magnetic lines created by the earth not by humans. Now when it rings does not ultimately create a quake. But it is in the system and the quake can result from several rings accuminlated.

    I am not saying harrp is for nothing coz I feel they have a part in the thing, but maybe just directing that ring???????

    Yes, I check it out every day! So far I've observed that the intense activity coincides with CME's, which suggests solar activity is a major factor in the earthquakes. On the other hand, TPTW could well use that as a cover for use of HAARP as well.

    Yes, there is a rumble. It seems to me we are vibrating at a higher frequency, and that the land I'm standing on is moving ever so slightly ENEast. Nothing jarring, almost like being on a large sailboat in short swells.

    There's a long article by Ken Adachi which argues the Japan earthquake was another Illuminati creation, and that the nuclear reactors were sabotaged :

    http://educate-yourself.org/cn/japanquakemanufactured12mar11.shtml



    Snippet.

    [Editor's Note: This article is being updated daily, so please check back often for new additional info being added at the bottom under reader Comments. The evidence is mounting quickly that not only the mega-earthquke and resultant Japanese tsunami were artificially manufactured, but the so-called nuclear power plant explosions in Japan are also due to sabotage, and were not accidental. Both mainstream and leftist media outlets like Pacifica radio are HYPING the radiation-release story through the roof and painting a very dangerous and panicky scenario WHEN THERE IS NO PROOF that such a radiation danger presently exists or WILL exist in the near future from these nucelar power plants. The only genuine radiation concern is for people in the immediate vicinity of the Daiichi plant in Fukushima. and certainly not for the people in Tokyo, despite the breathless reports (from KPFK radio on 3/16/11) that "radiation levels have risen 22% from normal in the Tokyo area". These media outlets are following a SCRIPT to instill fear and panic among the general public who know next to nothing about the nature of nuclear radiation and the "dangers' being presented here. This is an Illuminati fear mongering psyops on an unprecendented scale.

    Update March 17, 2011: ZS Livingstone and Don Nicoloff examine the manufactured March 11 Japan earthquke and the mined nuclear energy plants in Japan which exploded DUE TO SABOTAGE, in this March 16 radio interview on BBS Radio.

    End snippet.

    Full article on: http://educate-yourself.org/cn/japanquakemanufactured12mar11.shtml

    It also seems that an Israeli security company was in charge of security at the Japanese nuclear plants.

    Odds increasing for another large quake off the coast of Japan?
    We believe we may be on the verge of seeing another degree of intensity in the Japanese aftershocks occurring off the east coast of Honshu, Japan. The depth of the quakes and tremors is increasing which could indicate more subduction pressures along the Pacific plate and may suggest the likelihood of a tension snap-effect could be building. From 9:56 to 13:14 hours, the average depth of seven quakes was 29 km, but from 13:14 to 23.00 hours, the average depth of the last seven quakes is now 58 km- the depth of rattling has nearly doubled. Tension is still also recoiled on the Eurasian plate, particularily around China and the Philippines. Stay tuned…

    Record land mass movements observed in quake-hit Miyagi

    TSUKUBA, Japan, March 19, Kyodo
    The Oshika Peninsula in Miyagi Prefecture
    has moved 5.3 meters and dropped 1.2 meters since the devastating March
    11 earthquake, both records for land mass movements in Japan, government
    data showed Saturday.

    The data provided by the Geospatial Information Authority in Tsukuba
    showed the peninsula on the Pacific coast moved in an east-southeasterly
    direction toward the epicenter of the quake that had a magnitude of
    9.0.

    The quake also triggered land mass movements in many areas ranging
    from the northeastern region of Tohoku to the Kanto region including
    Tokyo, the authority said. A point in Yamada in Iwate Prefecture, north
    of Miyagi, moved 25 centimeters to the east, while a point in Chiba's
    Choshi, south of Miyagi, moved 17 cm to the east.

    1st water sprayed at Fukushima's No. 4 reactor

    TOKYO, March 20, Kyodo
    Japanese authorities shot water into a
    spent-fuel pool of the reactor No. 4 of the crippled Fukushima Daiichi
    nuclear power plant Sunday for the first time since the reactor's
    cooling system failed following last week's powerful earthquake.

    The operator also stepped up efforts to reactivate the cooling system
    of the reactors No. 1 and 2 as power cables were connected to them, but the International Atomic Energy Agency chief indicated it was premature to have an optimistic view on the future of the troubled plant.

    The Ground Self-Defense Force sprayed about 80 tons of water from a
    vehicle into the pool for nearly one hour until 9:30 a.m., according to the Defense Ministry.

    The move came after the Tokyo Fire Department shot water into a
    spent-fuel storage pool of the No. 3 reactor in an overnight operation
    that lasted more than 13 hours until 3:40 a.m.

    More than 2,000 tons of water is believed to have been put into the
    No. 3 reactor's pool, exceeding the pool's capacity of 1,400 tons. Fuel rods used at the reactor were plutonium-uranium mixed oxide fuel, known as MOX, said to be harder to control than normal fuel rods made from uranium.

    The power plant which was hit hard by the March 11 magnitude 9.0
    earthquake is on the Pacific coast of Fukushima Prefecture about 220
    kilometers northeast of Tokyo.

    IAEA chief Yukiya Amano made cautious comments on the future of the
    Fukushima plant. Amano said, upon his return to Vienna from a trip to
    Japan, ''I hope that safety, stability will be recovered as soon as
    possible...But I still don't think it is time to say that I think they
    are going in a good direction or not''

    Tokyo Electric Power Co. said that the previously overheated
    spent-fuel storage pools of the reactors No. 5 and No. 6 were cooled
    down to 37.1 C and 41.0 C, respectively, as of 7 a.m. Sunday.

    The company said it plans to check the system of the No. 2 reactor
    first as the building housing its containment was not damaged, which
    means it is hard to cool it down using water from outside. The fuel rods
    partially melted in the reactor but it is unknown how much water is
    left in its fuel storage pool.

    The company will try to restore the systems Sunday to monitor
    radiation and other data, light the control room and cool down the
    reactor and a spent-fuel storage pool of the reactor.

    Last year the Daiichi complex in Fukushima, Japan ... had a total of 1760 metric tons of fresh and used nuclear fuel on site . According to Associated Press, there were - at the time of the earthquake and tsunami - 3,400 tons of fuel in seven spent fuel pools plus 877 tons of active fuel in the cores of the reactors. That totals 4,277 tons of nuclear fuel at Fukushima.
    The amount of fuel lost in the core melt at Three Mile Island in 1979 was about 30 tons; the Chernobyl reactors had about 180 tons when the accident occurred in 1986.
