  miracles in japan: four-month old baby, 70-year old woman found aliveby william lee adams william lee adams tue mar 15, 7:20 pm et end .byline amid the silent corpses a baby cried out - and japan met its tiniest miracle.. on march 14 soldiers from the japanese defense force were going door-to-door, pulling bodies from homes flattened by the earthquake and tsunami in ishinomaki city, a coastal town northeast of senda.

  more accustomed to the crunching of rubble and the sloshing of mud than to the sound of life, they dismissed the baby's cry as a mistake.

  until they heard it again.

  Becks... This was after the hearing with Jaczco. It would appear he is getting his information second hand and perhaps third hand.

  Could it be accurate...perhaps and yes that would have dire results. We really don't have accurate information yet.

  Becks, is that me?? I'll assume so. Yes I would have to believe he is getting his info way down the line, he's obviously not in Japan. Personally, I don't understand how much more overblown it could be. What we already know for a fact, is bad enough.

  I've heard many many stories Jeff, I actually started a thread about the good stuff. I've heard about crews from California and .........West VA I believe, that are there for search and rescue. I know it's actually been snowing of all flippin' things. But that is all ongoing aftermath. Of course the nuclear issue is center front, it's another potentially huge event. As for emotion laden and lacking facts, I don't know what kind of news you watch or listen to, but I've heard many many experts talking about this. With little emotion and all the facts we can be privy to when dealing with a panicked government and a self serving corporation.

  Yesss those nasty old officials over there evacuating people from a 12 mile radius of the reactor area, and telling people witin 20 miles to stay indoors and seal the doors and windows (US officials telling Americans to evacuate within 50 miles). Those 50 workers being evacuated when the radiation spiked......... They're just making it worse, and not focusing on the real problems.

  Spent fuel rods in Unit 4 of Japan's stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant have been exposed, resulting in the emission of "extremely high" levels of radiation, the head of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission said Wednesday.

  "What we believe at this time is that there has been a hydrogen explosion in this unit due to an uncovering of the fuel in the fuel pool," Gregory Jaczko told a House energy and commerce subcommittee hearing. "We believe that secondary containment has been destroyed and there is no water in the spent fuel pool, and we believe that radiation levels are extremely high, which could possibly impact the ability to take corrective measures."

  I can't name the movie, though I'd like to.

  Ambien is a life saver. My prescription is 5 mil, and I cut that in to quarters. I leave a quarter on my nightstand, and when I have one of those toss and turn nights, I only have to roll over and grab it. It's never failed, and I have never had any of the weird side effects or felt crappy in the morning. But I'm essentially taking 1.25 grams. I've never taken a whole one.
