Title: Finns run for iodine after blasts at Japanese nuclear plant (Sheeple Panic Award)

Keywords: run on iodine tablets, able to replenish the stock, ran out of iodine completely

Concerns about possible radiation from Japan's earthquake-damaged Fukushima nuclear power plant sparked a weekend run on iodine tablets as far away as Finland, the country's largest pharmacy chain said Monday.

"On Saturday there was a run on , but the situation calmed down and we were able to replenish the stock on Sunday," Yliopiston Apteekki spokesman Jari Kokkonen told AFP.

Kokkonen said that some of their pharmacies in central Finnish cities like Tampere and Jyvaeskylae ran out of iodine completely on Saturday.

He believes the run on iodine was mostly due to people flying to Japan or the region, adding that many travellers had called the company's hotline for advice.

Finland's radiation and nuclear safety authority STUK said in a statement there was no chance the danger in Japan would lead to people in Finland needing to take iodine.

"Iodine tablets should not be taken without recommendations from officials, because the risk of side effects is greater than the possible benefit," the authority warned.

In neighbouring Sweden, a spokeswoman for the largest pharmacy chain, state-owned Apoteket, told AFP many worried customers asked about iodine over the weekend, but that the chain did not sell more tablets than usual.

The Fukushima 1 plant was hit by two explosions at buildings housing two reactors since a massive 8.9-magnitude earthquake hit Japan Friday, and the at a third stopped working Monday.

Chief government spokesman Yukio Edano said that radiation around the plant 250 kilometres (155 miles) north of Tokyo was at a tolerable level for humans.

it's a 9 richter.

And 20 000 years the problem should be over.

FU1/2 should be well on their way to the subduction zone of the Pacific/N American Plates.

And that's just nuclear plants. There are lots of other scary monsters out there.

Yeah, NEED.

Folks keep thinking, or at least expressing, that some big event will transpire, and then in a few years, the survivors will all be back to hunter gatherer, and like the History Channel bullshit, the earth will just fix nature and it will be shiny butterflies, fresh trout jumping into your lap, blah blah blah, back to Eden.

Nope, not even close.

In over our heads doesn't even come close to how fucked we are.

In 20 000 years this will all seem like just a bad dream. And FU1 and 2 should be well on their way to the Pacific Plate/N American subduction zone.

Been searching sites.

Conclusion. At least FU 1 and 2 seem to be 'fusing'.

Russia Today has the best news and the Russians should be brought in now. They're the Masters at MegaDoom Control:

­Shaun Burnie, an independent nuclear energy consultant from Scotland, says he would extend those accusations to the world-wide nuclear industry that is trying to conceal and diminish information about the Japanese nuclear crisis.

“In the last few days we’ve seen representatives from the industry, some of them acting as so-called independent experts from the institutes that are funded by the nuke industry, saying that ‘the situation is under control, this was meant to happen, it’s very reassuring, we need more nuclear power’. Nuclear power is inherently unsafe. Earthquakes are one hazard, but there are many more,” Burnie told RT.

And until I see a Military Uniform on the USSA MSM, I don't believe a fucking word they're saying.

Wonder where Diane Sawyer is now. All Int'l Media leaving or trying to leave Japan.

"Now we are talking about levels that can damage human health. These are readings taken near the area where we believe the releases are happening. Far away, the levels should be lower," said Yukio Edano, chief cabinet secretary.

"Please do not go outside. Please stay indoors. Please close windows and make your homes airtight. Don't turn on ventilators. Please hang your laundry indoors."

Until now, Japanese officials have said radiation levels at the plant were within safe limits.

It certainly is a possibility. Fallout from Chernobyl did reach as far as Canada.

This April 26, 1986 disaster was the worst nuclear accident in history to date, caused by a catastrophic surge in output power during a safety test, resulting in an explosion that exposed the reactor to open air. Radioactive fallout drifted over the western Soviet Union and Europe, including Turkey, Greece, Moldova, Romania, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Poland, Estonia, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Ireland, France, Corsica, as well as Canada and the United Kingdom.

Finland has the best educated populace on earth. Americans barely know how to read and believe in creationism in overwhelming numbers so I will guess the Finns can make informed decisions more so than hondo.

From your link>> Claus Rubenius is moving ahead with a plans to create a Gigawatt-scale energy warehouse in Mexico using immense sodium sulfur batteries. The energy storage facility will be in the Silicon Borders Science Park in Mexicali, Mexico. All the necesary heavyweights have signed off on the deal, including President Obama, Mexico's President Calderon, Japan's NGK CEO, and it's full speed ahead.

Nice, outsourcing pollution to Mexico. Mexicali is close enough to me to be a potential problem. NIMBY!

I love the smell of sodium sulfur batteries in the morning. What sort of heavy metals and toxic chemicals might be blowing my way, as a result of this wonderful "green" technology? I guess I could seal the house with plastic and duct tape when the Santa Anna's blow.

Therein lies the problem with the socialists: they want "population reduction" to "save" the planet.

But as you so correctly point out, they never volunteer for it. They prefer to murder others, in the name of "compassion."

They're friggin' LOONS, when you get down to brass tacks.

Socialist ass-hats think "There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." And yes, that IS from LF's answer to Ben Bernanke, go65, leading disfunctional and delusional socialist of the forum.

Santa Annas blow from the northeast, so you must be already in Mexico.

But think of it as a small supposedly unintended consequence of the agreement that was negotiated by your fellow oilmen.

Damn close, but still in the USA. I am both west and south of Mexicali which is in the imperial valley. I'm on the border north of, but near Tecate Mexico which is in the area indicated by the mountains below. The border is not strictly east and west, but angles to the south.

I'm not an oilman, but do like gasoline in my car and gas for my stove. What do you cook with, buffalo chips?

The human project is a bad dream? (I may agree.) But who is the dreamer?

As for oil, if the nuclear age is over, shouldn't oil be skyrocketing in price? Ethanol, solar and wind will contribute almost nothing. All that is left are fossil fuels.

Again and again and again, I ask: How deeply ignorant and retarded are the oil traders? Day-to-day demand MIGHT be down ever-so-slightly, but the tidal wave looms.

And that has exactly what to do with whether or not Finns are justifiably concerned about fallout from Japan?

The problem with being the party of "no" is that you never form a congruent plan or argument of your own.
