Am I the only person who cares about Naomi Wakabayashi?  ;_;
Atleast I know she safe.
I was concerned about her, along with Azumi, Mayako, and Rie.

I'm not sure if this is a re-post or not... A Japanese cartoon explaining the nuclear crisis to kids. It's very cute and very sad at the same time. I hope the nuclear ordeal gets resolved. It's been confirmed that they have been able to connect power to Reactor 3, and are working on getting power to the other reactors. The workers at the Fukushima plant are truly heroes; it takes a lot of courage to put their lives out for not only the people of Japan, but the world.

Apparently, it looks like you can just watch these videos and funds will go to the disaster...?

Dunno how it works, but eh.

Not sure if anyone's died handling the reactors (don't think so), but well, it's radiation poisoning. I don't think people'll die immediately from it, but you might be feeling it a few years down the line.

I'm sure they can handle getting things back up, though.

Yeah, living so close to Hollywood can do that to you. :P

Anyway, to anyone from the States who buys food from Japan, got some bad news for you:

I wouldn't worry to much. I heard on ABC that since the earthquake all flights coming from Japan have been screened for radiation by hi tech sensors then re-screened with even higher tech sensors. According to US customs if its on the shelves its safe to eat as far as Rads go.

I know. We Washingtonians are shaking our heads...ah, California...I mean really, there will only be traces of radiation, and you're exposed to radiation every day. We're all going to die one day anyways. XD

People are showing effects of the increased radiation but no one has died yet. When Chernobyl happened, some of the  workers died from radiation poisoning within a few months after the disaster. It depends on the person, but they all definitely have increased risks of cancer. It's unfortunate, but they know what they're doing. These guys are heroes.

There's a short video dedicated to them. No manly tears are enough for the 50.

Yeah. I think I heard they were mostly older workers?

... Daaaaang. I mean, I wanna say I'm sure they'll be fine, and they're meeting the whole crisis with protective equipment that's just as strong as what's being thrown at them, but... what's being thrown at them is a nuclear reactor, and it supplies power to how much of Tokyo?

Well, they'll get things done. They'll feel it later probably, but I'm pretty sure they'll get things under control.

And that's the thing about life. Certain people have to give up something so the rest of them don't.
