Testing Finds No Health Threat Along West Coast
   
The U.S. Department of Energy said minuscule amounts of the radioactive isotopes iodine-131, iodine-132, tellurium-132 and cesium-137 had reached a Sacramento monitoring station tied to the U.N.'s Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization, but the readings were far below levels that could pose any health risks.

A detector at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Washington State earlier this week also detected trace amounts of xenon-133 - a gas produced during nuclear fission - the DOE said.

The doses that a person normally receives from rocks, bricks, the sun and other natural background sources are 100,000 times the dose rates detected at either location, the DOE and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said in a joint statement.

The statement confirmed statements from diplomats and officials in Vienna earlier in the day.

***********

Now let me explain this since people are having a hard time with this.

1.- Think of the radiation as wind. And yes it is so low you can laugh about it.

2.- Particles... those are the ones that are a concern. IF Fukushima stopped tomorrow expelling crap then it WILL NOT concentrate in the food supply. If this goes on for weeks on end... (as expected) then IT WILL start concentrating in your milk supply.

For food supplies, milk the concern is iodine. Right now it is like minuscule. I hope they keep giving us updates and do not assume we are all rubes.

On and Iodine has a relative fast half life, that is the good news.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

She just cannot stop herself. No way, no how, she simply can't help it. She's easily the most offensive, arrogant, condescending DUmmy ever. A few have been DUmber (Pam Dawson), a few have been funnier (TiT, CalPig), a few have been both DUmber and funnier (Pitt), but no one can hold a candle to her for DUmb, funny, jaw-dropping arrogance.

What I don't understand is why she hasn't been banned yet. She must donate more that calpeg.

So if it does "go on for weeks" and if there is any established, trusted science that says that the radiation "will start concentrating in your milk," the dose then will be just a little less than 100,000 times less that what you already get every day FROM EVERY OTHER DAMN THING AROUND YOU, MORON!

Lets not forget the 8 day half-life either. By the time it gets accumulated enough to be harmful the older stuff will be dropping off the backside. Add in production, shipping, processing, bottling, more shipping and sales times even more will have expired leaving a minute trace that would expire in the fridge or you within a couple-3 days.

Exactly -- This is what Nads refuses to grasp. Radioactive Iodine that has been released eight days ago is half as radioactive as stuff released today. Eight days from now its radioactivity will be 25% of the original dose. The decay is more or less binary ; newly released material has a radiation of 1/1 then it falls to 1/2, then 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64 ,1/128 etc etc... So - the iodine that is just showing up now is already on its way to packing 1/4 of the radiation it originally did, and its particles spread over a much wider radius. As new stuff arrives, the existing stuff ceases to be any threat at all - its not going to 'collect' into anything meaningful.

Nads, your theory makes as much sense as a man trying to cool his neighborhood on a hot summer day by throwing a few ice cubes out his window every 20 minutes.

The one person that is really having a hard time with this is Nads herself.

So, Nads was for hoarding milk before she was against it?

What would a veteran nuclear submarine captain do?
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
