More Fukushima / Nuke Industry Fallout: Sensors fail at Daini! Don’t eat the Flounder! Jamaica finds radioactive bus! Special team to invesitgate WIPP! More reason for Scotland to breakaway from England! The Devil is in the details; increased rates of cancer in California!

07 March 2014 (03:20 UTC-07 Tango)/05 Jumada l-Ula 1435/16 Esfand 1392/07 Ding-Mao 4712

In the Caribbean, Jamaican Customs officials revealed they have impounded two buses shipped from Japan that are radioactive!  The buses were impounded in January, after U.S. DoE taxpayer funded Jamaican radiation teams inspected a shipment from Japan.

Jamaican officials have been arguing with Japanese embassy officials.  They want Japan to take the buses back.  I’ve written before about the pseudo-secret U.S. taxpayer funded radiation detection program in Jamaica and Bahamas. 

The national reactor temp monitoring system, used by Japans’  Nuclear Regulation Authority (Emergency Response Support System, ERSS) lost contact with two reactors at Fukushma Daini.

Daini is aka Fukushima plant number 2, just a few miles south of Daiichi (plant number 1).  The ERSS temperature monitors for reactor Units 2 and 3 went blank.  The NRA is asking TEPCo to investigate.  The same thing happened just before the Fukushima Daiichi meltdowns of 2011.  At last check Daini reactor Units 2 & 3 were showing 30 degrees Celsius (86 Fahrenheit), even though they are shutdown.

Nicholas Fisher, of the Stony Brook University, said at this point most fish in the Pacific Ocean are safe to eat, however, stay away from bottom feeders, like flounder: “Those levels [radiation] are very high and in some cases clearly exceed safety limits.  I would certainly avoid eating those fish.”–PBS Newshour report

The ongoing fishing ban is having a positive effect on the fish off the coastline near the Fukushima Daiichi nuke site: “The number of fish is increasing fast……and they’re getting bigger!”-Sato Kimio, fishing boat Captain, PBS Newshour report

Ass hole government prosecuting attorneys dropped all charges against Tokyo Electric Power Company, for the ongoing nuke disaster at Fukushima Daiichi!  For some reason the prosecutors suddenly decided TEPCo was not at fault for the nuclear disaster, and that has many people pissed: “Absolutely no-one is taking responsibility for this huge accident and when all these people are suffering. The [government sponsored] investigation clearly stated this was an accident created by humans, not a natural disaster….”-Aileen Mioko-Smith, Green Action Japan

“The MoD [Ministry of Defence] knew how politically damaging this would be for the UK Government. This smells of a cover-up. There are now serious questions to answer. We can only wonder what other nuclear secrets the UK Government is keeping from the people of Scotland.”-Angus Robertson, Scottish National Party

In United Kingdom,  the Scottish Environment Protection Agency is outraged that English officials kept secret a radiation leak for two years!  It happened in 2012 near Dounreay, Scotland, during a test of a Vulcan nuclear reactor, the same type of reactor used on UK’s Vanguard and Astute class submarines.  Scottish officials were only told of the radiation leak on 06 March 2014!

I also found a BBC report from October 2011 stating there was a “minor” leak at the Dounreay nuclear power generating plant.

In Carlsbad, New Mexico, residents are pissed off about the lack of info from the DoE about U.S. Waste Isolation Pilot Plant incident.  At the townhall meeting their main concern was about WIPP being shut down and jobs lost.  A series of “incidents” began on 05 February 2014, and WIPP is still closed as a result.  Department of Energy officials announced during the townhall meeting that a “specially trained team” will enter the WIPP site next week, to determine contamination levels inside.

In California, the World Business Academy revealed that people living near the Diablo Canyon nuke plant (in San Luis Obispo County) are suffering much higher than ‘normal’ cancer rates: “The data contained in this report support a remarkable predisposition of persons living within a 15 mile radius of Diablo Canyon Nuclear Plant to have a significantly increased incidence of various cancers, including thyroid, breast and melanoma. Exposure to radiation is well known to result in an increased risk of developing cancer.”-Stephen W. Hosea, Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital

In Kansas, a woman who did not have cancer was put through 15 treatments of radiation therapy in 2010.   It was all over a red spot on one of her eyelids.  After the treatment she got a second opinion from a doctor who said the red spot was not cancer, and she should never have been irradiated.

In court Michael Grossbard, a medical oncologist and chief of hematology-oncology at Mount Sinai hospitals in New York, testified that even if the red spot on her eye was cancer it had only a “30% chance that could have disseminated throughout the body and led to an early death and been incurable.” without radiation treatment which is about the same as the chances with radiation treatment.

More and more studies are coming out saying medical radiation treatments (cemo, x-ray, MRI, CT) are dangerous and have no effect on reducing cancer (in some cases they make the cancer worse).

Exceptional Failed State: U.S. job losses & store closings 27-30 November 2013. JCPenney shutdowns! More shutdowns in California!

Incomplete list of announced closings and layoffs:

Alabama: In Selma, evil taxsucker KBR laid off 73 employees.

California: In Boron, Rio Tinto Minerals shutdown their borax mine, 234 jobs lost! In Lynwood, Elite Slides laid off 78 employees.  In Ontario, JCPenney’s JC’s 5 Star Outlet shutdown, 136 jobs lost!  In Vernon, Trinity Sports shutdown, 164 jobs lost!  In Los Angeles, Aircraft Service International Group shutdown, 90 jobs lost.

Connecticut: In Branford, 454 Life Sciences shutdown, 31 jobs lost.  In Glastonbury, Japan based printer maker Ricoh Americas shutdown, 147 jobs lost!

Florida: Duke Energy laid off 24 employees.

New Jersey: In Kearny, Dessert Service laid off 85 employees, for unknown reasons.

New York:  In Horseheads, Missouri based networking products maker Belden Incorporated shutdown.  173 jobs lost!

Ohio: In Canton, Capital Senior Living shutdown, 43 jobs lost.

Pennsylvania: In Reading, JCPenney’s JC’s 5 Star Outlet shutdown, 66 jobs lost.

According to employment consultant Challenger, Gray & Christmas, employers in the United States issued 45314 “planned” job cut notices in November 2013.  This does not count the small mom and pop operations.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) doesn’t count the hundreds of layoffs involving less than 50 people each, in its mass layoff reports. It also doesn’t count all the little ‘mom & pop’ businesses that shut down.

Exceptional Failed State: More proof ‘Wall Street’ is a scam to steal your money! Regulator deletes “Red Flag” info about stock brokers!

“…there are problems at all those levels….it’s really been an honor system…there were breakdowns at all levels….”-Micheal Siconolfi, Wall Street Journal interviewed on CNBC’s Nightly Business Report

“PIABA Warning: FINRA Withholds Critical ‘Red Flag’ Information in Broker Background Check Disclosures to Investors.”-Public Investors Arbitration Bar Association

“The report is being issued as deeper problems with FINRA’s disclosure BrokerCheck were brought to light. A Wall Street Journal investigation published late Wednesday found that the public records of some 1,600 brokers failed to include criminal charges, bankruptcy filings and other problematic issues that should have been in their files.”–Reuters

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is a private corporation hired to supposedly keep ‘Wall Street’ honest.  FINRA is not a government agency.

“…investors need to be a lot more active…..do a little forensic investigation of your own…go to your state securities commissioners….”-Micheal Siconolfi, Wall Street Journal interviewed on CNBC’s Nightly Business Report

How can Idahoans trust their own state regulators?  Idaho’s own State Treasurer, Ron Crane, was outed by an internal audit which revealed that he recently blew through at least $10.6-million of taxpayers money, betting it on ‘Wall Street’!  Crane has been Idaho State Treasurer since 1998!

Exceptional Failed State: The Hell of ObamaCare Lies! More double/triple taxation! Got a great health insurance plan? Get ready to pay a 40% “Cadillac” tax on that!

07 March 2014 (18:39 UTC-07 Tango 06 March 2014)/05 Jumada l-Ula 1435/16 Esfand 1392/07 Ding-Mao 4712

“The 19th Annual Towers Watson/NBGH Employer Survey on Purchasing Value in Health Care found that employer costs are expected to reach $9,560 per employee in 2014, an increase of 4.4%* from $9,157 in 2013………..employees’ share of premiums increased nearly 7%, to $2,975, this year. Out-of-pocket costs also increased. The total employee cost share has climbed from 34.4% in 2011 to 37% in 2014. Employees now pay over $100 more each month for health care compared with just three years ago.

Nearly half (49%) of employers have increased employee contributions for dependent tiers at higher rates than for individuals. Another 19% expect to make this move next year. About one-quarter (24%) of companies now use spousal surcharges of around $100 per month……..the trend toward increased cost sharing for spouses will likely continue.

The survey was completed by 595 employers between November 2013 and January 2014. Respondents collectively employ 11.3 million full-time employees, have 7.8 million employees enrolled in their health care programs…..”–Towers Watson

“One big reason: the so-called Cadillac Tax. In 2018, under the Affordable Care Act, high-priced employer-sponsored insurance plans will trigger a 40 percent excise tax on insurance benefits in excess of $10,200 for an individual and $27,500 for a family plan.”–Bertha Coombs, CNBC’s Nightly Business Report

More Economic Decline: Radio Shack & Staples ups the ante, more than 1-thousand stores to close down!

06 March 2014 (08:17 UTC-07 Tango)/04 Jumada l-Ula 1435/15 Esfand 1392/06 Ding-Mao 4712

At he beginning of 2014 Radio Shack announced it will close 500 stores.  That was before they compiled their crappy Xmas 2013 sales.  Turns out Santa decided to take a dump down their electronic chimney!

Click pics to make bigger.

End of Gregorian year 2013 sales crashed 20% for the iconic Radio Shack.  So now 1100 Radio Shacks will close down.  There has yet to be confirmation as to whether this is an additional 1100 stores on top of the 500, or is this the final 2014 total?   An investor/ bankruptcy analyst says Radio Shack is in a death spiral: “They can continue to operate but they are in a cash-flow negative spiral and that doesn’t usually reverse itself.”-David Tawil

In the late 1980s I worked at a Lompoc, California, Radio Shack.  I lost my job when I tried to blow the whistle on a scam the lead sales associate was running with the electronic repairs.  The guy would take customers’ broken electronics, charge them the usual Radio Shack fees to send it back to Texas for repair, but instead he did the work himself.  People started complaining because many of the repair jobs were failures, and some people never got their items back.  I found some repair orders sitting in a closet that had receipts dated from more than a year earlier! I quickly learned the store manager was involved because I lost my job when I told him about the scam.

Now comes Mitt Romney’s wunderkind Staples.  Their end of year revenues were were so bad they’ve just announced they will close 225 stores by the middle of 2015!

Santa’s dump on Staples was so big that company officials say they need to cut $500-million USD!  It’s blamed on increased competition from the merged Office Max/Office Depot.

Staples shutdown 40 U.S. stores in 2013.

Gun Control: Oregon bus driver shits self then calls police because somebody mentioned guns! No guns found, but a man was arrested on false charges!

06 March 2014 (23:29 UTC-07 Tango 05 March 2014)/04 Jumada l-Ula 1435/15 Esfand 1392/06 Ding-Mao 4712

On 04 March 2014, a Northeast Portland bus driver had a conniption fit because he/she(?) claims they heard voices talking about guns on the bus.

Police were called in, and were even told the ‘man’ on the bus had a “cocked and loaded” gun.

A man was arrested, but no gun was found.  The man was falsely charged with interfering with public transportation.  It’s a false charge because the man was not preventing the operation of the bus, and the bus driver never made such a claim.  (other than it was hard to drive the bus with a load of shit in their pants)

The wrongly arrested man was released.

You Oregonians are such big failed United Statesians!

World War 3, West Asian Front: Israel stages False Flag missile capture op, Israeli media says so!

“….it [Iran] continues to arm terrorist groups, continues to perpetrate terrorism around the world.”-Benyamin Netanyahu, hypocrite because he is arming al Qaeda ‘affiliated’ groups in Libya, Egypt and Syria

NAZI-land Israeli Prime Minister Nut-job Yahoo made a video report claiming Israeli commandos had captured some really big artillery rockets, on a ship in the Red Sea, and claimed they came from Iran.

He also claimed the big 302mm rockets were heading towards Gaza.  Of course the Western news media is all over this, but guess what?  Some Israeli news sources are debunking this report!

Nut-job Yahoo says these very large artillery rockets were going to somehow get smuggled over land into Gaza.   He claims they were shipped out of Syria to Iran and then heading to Hamas in Gaza.  So far, video of only one 302mm has been shown.

The Western news media calls them “M”302 because there is no official name for it.  It is an unguided rocket 302millimeters (11.8 inches) in diameter and supposedly are made by Syria.  They were first used by Lebanon against Israel in Gregorian year 2006, when Israel started the Second Lebanon War.  It is very possible that Israel has these on hand as they’ve launched many cross border raids into Lebanon since then, and captured some equipment.

The 302mm rocket is most likely made by China.  In China it is known as the WeiShi-1 (WS-1).  It is 4.7 meters long (15.4 feet), and weighs about 674 kilograms (1485 pounds) with warhead! This makes the rocket too big to easily “smuggle” over land, let alone by air and ship.   On top of that, it’s useless without the large launching equipment, so it makes the claim by the Israelis unbelievable.

Israeli news source, Ynet.com, also points out that the Syrian government is no friend to Hamas, as Hamas actually expressed support for some anti-Syrian government rebels!

The Nut-job Yahoo regime also claimed the rocket was going to be transferred to Sudan, then to Egypt before finally reaching its destination.   The Ynet.com article points out that the Obama regime puppet government in Egypt has outlawed Hamas, making it even more unlikely that the rocket was meant for Hamas if it was going to go through Egypt.

Hamas officials even called the Israeli claim “a stupid joke”.

Ynet.com says Israeli defense officials have hinted that the 302 rocket was actually intended for a group known as Islamic Jihad.

And here’s the problem with that: There are at least five Islamic Jihad groups!  There’s one in Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt, Turkey and Yemen.  So which one was getting the massive unlaunchable rocket mister nut-job yahoo?

Can you say “False flag operation”?

Idaho

Exceptional Failed State: Idaho’s homosexuals have bigger ‘Balls’ than the neutered Occupy Idaho movement? Protests do work, they drain the crony governments of needed tax revenues! Senate breaks its own law to arrest former Senator!

05 March 2014 (17:13 UTC-07 Tango)/03 Jumada l-Ula 1435/14 Esfand 1392/05 Ding-Mao 4712

For weeks now unarmed, peaceful Idaho homosexuals have been arrested, over and over, for protesting state laws they believe are discriminatory.  Yesterday they even had the balls to bar the crony govna (Butch Otter, who’s about to get a public endorsement from crony taxsucker capitalist Mormon Mitt Romney) from his own Boise office!

On 04 March 2014, some of the 43 ballsy protestors (not all are necessarily homosexuals, or physically had ‘balls’ as some are eggsy women) who were arrested blocked Otter from entering his office from the secret non-public access/escape door.   One of those arrested was former Idaho State Senator Nicole LeFavour.

A Boise TV station reveled that in order to arrest former Senator LeFavour the Senate actually broke their own law that gives former Senators access to the Senate at anytime!

Even former Idaho Governor Phil Batt supports the protests.

Idaho State Police (ISP) whine about how every time they’re called in to deal with a peaceful protest it costs ten of thousands of dollars.  They also admitted they don’t have the personnel to handle constant protests: “We don’t have a lot of troopers, we have limited resources….”– Lieutenant Colonel Kendrick Wills, ISP

That’s good news to hear for protestors.  Please explain why you gave up without a fight Occupy Boise?

On February 21, 2012, the state of Idaho created a law that specifically targets the Occupy movement.  It extended anti-gathering laws (no demonstrations can last longer than four hours) to the state property the Occupy Boise movement was using.

 Occupy Boise leaders told the Boise PBS station that they would comply because they don’t want to cause legal problems: “I will take it elsewhere. There are a lot of us who recognize that this movement is more important than the place we’re staying.”-Daniel Grad, Occupy Boise, December 8, 2011

Here’s a reality check for all you ball-less Occupy Boise protestors: There’s a saying in the world of business, “location, location, location”!   If there is no need to Occupy land, then what was the point of Egyptian Revolutionaries fighting so hard to control Tahrir Square?  Even in the military world you cannot end a war without putting “boots on the ground” in order to occupy the enemy!

In November 2013 a federal court shot down Idaho’s anti-demonstration law, but so far I haven’t seen hide nor hair of the Occupy movement in Idaho.  Maybe they’re afraid of being arrested and being put in the same cell as those ballsy/eggsy homosexuals?

Oh but wait,  I’ve discovered the Occupy Boise movement has evolved, into the Add The Words movement!  Why?  Why not continue using the Occupy slogan?  Is there a fear of publicly connecting the homosexual demonstrators with the overall Occupy movement?  Don’t confuse the audience!

The elites love to divide and conquer.   If the Occupy movement wants to represent all citizens repressed by the crony elites then it must be done under one banner!

By the way those of you who follow the lies about successful peaceful protests are doomed to fail!  Ghandi did not win because his Hindu followers were peaceful.  If you do the research you’ll find that he played the Muslims for fools, by launching instigatory false flag attacks against them, then blaming them for it!  He then went to the British rulers and basically said ‘you see those Muslims aren’t civilized enough to take over after you leave, give us compliant Hindus the rulership’.

By the way Ghandi was assassinated by a Hindu Nationalist for ‘sabotaging’ the interests of the Hindus.  Then his wife was assassinated by her own body guards.  Why, because she ordered the deaths of thousands of people (mainly Muslims), and the destruction of the most holy of Sikh temples, once she came to power!

History shows that no revolution is successful if it is afraid to get violent.  We’re taught that the peaceful protests led by Martin Luther King Junior led to the Civil rights Act of 1964, but that is a lie!  It took armed insurrections by black skinned U.S. citizens to get those laws, and even then they still had to fight for several years to get those laws enforced.

Research the ballsy race riots: Rochester 1964, New york City 1964, Philadelphia 1964, Jersey City 1964, Paterson 1964,  Elizabeth 1964, Chicago 1964, Watts Rebellion 1965, Hough 1966, Benton Harbor 1966 (put down by Mitt Romney’s father George Romney), Hunters Point 1966, Chicago 1966, Detroit 1967, Newark 1967, Plainfield 1967, Milwaukee 1967, Minneapolis-Saint Paul 1967, Orangeburg Massacre 1968, King Assassination Riots affecting 125 cities 1968,  and Black Panthers.    And that’s just from 1964 to 1968!

The black-ies took up guns against white-ies for the first time, exercising their 2nd Amendment Right, and it scared the shit of of the white-ies!  And I can argue that one reason black skinned citizens are still facing discrimination is because they ended their warpath, in the name of peace!  (Do the research on that and you’ll find some of their elites were bought off, and the majority of their poor were drugged up.  There’s a direct connection to the decline in black power movements and the rise in black gangbanger drug dealers, many black gangbangers have revealed their sources for the drugs they sell are whites, and even cops! It’s an old tactic started by the British empire, research Opium Wars.)

Cyberspace does not win Revolutions! Occupy the land! 

Peaceful Protest does not Work!

Exceptional Failed State: The Hell of ObamaCare Lies! One Million poor people in Florida denied ObamaCare, and counting!

“It’s very difficult, because most people were thinking once passed, they were going to have health insurance or an opportunity to get insurance. Having to retell that story over and over again that you don’t qualify because Florida didn’t expand Medicaid is very difficult.”-Stephanie Jones-Theaker, Brevard Health Alliance

Florida, like at least half the states in the great United failed States of America, refuses to expand Medicaid to meet Obama Care requirements.  It’s now been revealed that, at this point, one million Floridians have been rejected for Affordable Health Care as a result of a 2012 federal Supreme Court ruling.

Another discovery is that the majority of poor people are unaware of the 2012 Supreme Court ruling.  You can blame that on the ignorant main streamer U.S. new media for failing to explain it, and leading the people on to think almost everybody will be covered by ‘free’ health care.

Incomplete list of announced closings and layoffs:

California:  Taxsucker Boeing continued layoffs, this time 22 employees let go.  In El Centro, International Paper continued layoffs, this time three people fired.  In Pocoima, clothing store Juicy Couture laid off 17 employees.  The company was sold off.  In West Sacramento, Xyratex International laid off 17 people.  In California City, the Correctional Center (prison) laid off 296 people!  It’s blamed on the bad economy and a federal court order.  In Riverbank, Silgan Containers continues layoffs, this time 25 employees kicked out.   In Long Beach, transportation company Keolis Transit America laid off 77 people.

Indiana: In Indianapolis, metal fab company CMW International shutdown, 100 jobs lost!  The company was trying to sell off the factory, due to lack of cash.  A lawsuit filed in New York indicates the company hasn’t been paying its suppliers.  Company officials blame the bad economy: “The company has been actively seeking capital, actively seeking additional business……”-CMW statement

New Jersey: In Barnegat, Healthcare Services Group laid off 100 people!

New York:  More proof you can’t blame the internet for brick & mortar shutdowns! In NYC, internet pop-up ad company Fab.com laid off 79 employees.  It’s blamed on the bad economy.  Tax service provider, PricewaterhouseCoopers, laid off 27 people.  It’s blamed on the bad economy.  Clothing store Juicy Couture laid off 61 employees.  The company was sold off.

Virginia: In Glen Allen, cancer screening lab Bostwick Laboratories laid off 34 employees.  This after the company paid a $503,668 USD fine for “inducing” doctors to send their lab work to Bostwick labs only.

 According to employment consultant Challenger, Gray & Christmas, employers in the United States issued 45314 “planned” job cut notices in November 2013.  This does not count the small mom and pop operations.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) doesn’t count the hundreds of layoffs involving less than 50 people each, in its mass layoff reports. It also doesn’t count all the little ‘mom & pop’ businesses that shut down.
