Fukushima Daiichi Radiation
This is the 49th day since the occurrence of the 3/11 Disaster of Japan.
According to the Buddhism, the 49th day after one's death is important so that a special ceremony is conducted.
In one primary school, 74 pupils among 104 children were killed with 10 teachers by the 3/11 Tsunami. But, in other schools, most of children and students could escape as they were trained and educated routinely for tsunami emergency. And, as it was around 3 p.m. that the tsunami hit the shores near the earthquake epicenter, pupils were still in schools so that they could be led out by teachers out of the danger. Otherwise, twice or 10 times more children and students could have been victimized.
Yet, total 1,100 school boys and girls as well as students were killed or lost by the 3/11 Disaster of Japan, among 26,000 deaths and missing.
SECTION I: Fukushima Daiichi Mesaurement
Radiation levels at some points in the precincts of the Fukushima Daiichi (First) Nuclear Power Plant are measured everyday and made public by TEPCO:

The largest radiation level at the south spot of the main office building has been decreasing from 500 micro sieverts per hour to 400 steadily.
Other locations show around 200, 100, or 20 or so micro sieverts per hour, steadily dropping in these days.
SECTION II: Fukushima vs. Chernobyl
Some Japanese scientists judge that the Fukushima radioactive disaster is almost on the same level of the Chernobyl case, though data within a 30 km range of Fukushima Daiichi are lacked in the figure below.
Radiation data at each distance on the sixth day from the Chernobyl blast, and the seventh day from the Fukushima accident of March 11 are plotted in the figure below.

However, the following data were also collected by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology around Fukushima Daiichi:
On March 15, 2011:
195 to 330 micro-sieverts per hour at a 20 km point from Fukushima Daiichi
155 to 9.92 micro-sieverts per hour at a 10 km point from Fukushima Daiichi

So, it is considered that Fukushima radiation is fairly less than Chernobyl's.

We, the Japanese, very much appreciate financial aid from all over the world.
Tokyo Electric Power Company has already received financial aid reaching $24.3 billion (2 trillion yen) from various city banks in Japan for its recovery operation and compensation for damage evacuees have incurred.

Princess Diana was killed in Paris through a car accident in late August of 1997.
(Prepared by EEE Reporter; click to enlarge.)
She was remotely associated with the Rothschild family. However, nowadays dynamism of history is making all their past material glory obsolete, though truth of Diana's death is yet to be manifested like the tragic case of JFK Jr. in July 1999.
And, the 9/11 Terror happened in 2001; the War on Terror subsequently started; the Lehman Shock erupted in 2008; and finally the 3/11 Disaster befell Japan in 2011.
Yet, some souls might be still wandering around the extended shadows of late 1990's.

Joh 4:29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
