"Kono accused the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan's nuclear accident cover-cover and hide the true cost of a nuclear reactor. There is a hidden nuclear issue," the report said the diplomat.

"Kono said the Japanese in 2008 had increased seismic activity. The high activity of an earthquake three years ago it was signalize about Japanese nuclear reactor safety.

Prime Minister of Japan at this time, Naoko Kan, when it still served as minister of technology and science.

Already Fukushima radiation from the Triple Border Normal

Already Fukushima radiation from the Triple Border NormalTOKYO - The Japanese government has said the radiation levels around nuclear power plants Fukushima I've entered the level of impact to human health. This is following the explosion of the reactor 2 at the Fukushima plant complex I, on Tuesday (15 / 3), after earlier reactors 1 and 3 - of a total of six reactors - has exploded on Saturday (12 / 3) and Monday (14 / 3).

"Radiation of 400 milisievert per hour have been detected in the vicinity of the reactor building number 3 at 10:22 pm (local time),''said Chief Cabinet Secretary of Japan, Yukio Edano, as quoted by NHK, on Tuesday (15 / 3). This figure, called him, was high enough to affect human health.

Edano also said that the possibility of a large vessel from the reactor 2 nuclear power plant has been damaged. Three reactor that exploded, I was him, out of dangerous radioactive material.

Figures 400 or 400 thousand mikrosievert milisievert is three times higher than acceptable levels of radiation humans. Exposure to radiation from that level could trigger the loss of white blood cells.

Japan Earthquake Predicted Previous Apparently Already

Japan Earthquake Predicted Previous Apparently AlreadyTOKYO - An earthquake that ravage Japan, last Friday, it had predicted earlier. However, researchers do not know if the strength of the quake was very powerful.

Sadayuki Kitagawa, researchers at the Seismic Research division said that they had actually predict earthquakes will occur around the coast of Fukushima and Ibaraki.

What they do not know is the size of the power of the quake and tsunami will occur. "We were already predicting there will be an earthquake with a strength of 8 or smaller, but not this big," he said.

He added that the Friday quake strength will make a series of aftershocks are expected to last for a while. Kitagawa said, it resembles a massive earthquake, the earthquake in Aceh, 2004, which also caused huge Indian Ocean tsunami.

Meanwhile, Bloomberg News reported, Italy geological institute claims Japanese earthquake shifts the axis of the earth about 10 cm.

Ring Neck Generate Stroke Risk

Most people are fond of and satisfied after a successful neck ring. Typical movements that may be hard to break habits. Apparently the custom is believed to reduce soreness. Unfortunately, if done too often can increase the risk of stroke.

Typical movements that produce sounds like a broken bone is actually due to the release of gas in the synovial membrane that surrounds joints. The gas is out of the membrane as a result of strong pressure at the neck or waist played with mengentak movement.

Release of these gases are not harmful, and even can help relieve stiffness and aches in the joints. Soreness can be reduced for a while, though usually will come back again when the synovial membrane begins to fill back by air.

Fitness expert from New York, Henry S. Lodge, MD said neck ring the habit is more dangerous than other parts because it can increase the risk of stroke.

"In some women, rang the neck with a typical movement reportedly can increase the risk of stroke. Presumably because this triggers an artery or blood vessel damage," said Lodge, as quoted from MSN Health.

Actions move the neck so as to produce a sound like a broken bone is never recommended by experts. If you do not want to feel the aches, the most appropriate choice is to move or make more frequent physical activity.

Even if forced to do so because it may already be a difficult habit is lost, then the motion should not be made too strong and mengentak. Repeat naturally, not be forced too rotate or bend so as to give an extra burden because it can lead to arthritis or arthritis.
