51 of 54 shutdown in Japan
Supposedly the nuke plants used to supply 30% of Japan's electrical needs, now it is only 4% and yet things are pretty normal. That doesn't really make sense.

Your comment is abusive and insulting and here is why...you pretend that the boom potential of fuel melting is somehow eliminated by the difference between Pressurized Water Reactor and Boiling Water Reactor. The BWR is more old school and the water and steam that run the turbines go directly through the reactor. on the PWR you have a separation between "hell" and the turbines through a set of heat exchangers.
But the boom potential is not lessened, you just don't have a highly radioactive turbine (mostly just tritium). Now the bad part is that these heat exhangers now become a massive failure point.
Back in the BWR day, you knew that any part of the system could spew radiation. In the PWR dream, you didn't have to worry about the turbine side, unless of course substandard steel alloys were being bought from China and put into the system, and failing, allowing the hellishly radioactive water to jump from the hell side to the supposedly safe side. ---even easier to release to environment
And that is what is happening these days as nukies are harder pressed to compete with cheap energy sources like solar and wind, and natural gas. They are taking shortcuts on materials and safety, and it is blowing up in their faces. BOOM
I do expect this dying Bronto, the nuke cabal, to rear its ugly head a few times before sinking into the primordial ooze, but the future is clear.
"Geez you need to get some proper schooling", now that really is abusive. Its a pot shot. It is unnecessary for the decorum of this communication channel that Huff Post is kind enough to offer as a venue for education and discussion.

Trouble is, they are losing tens of millions a year.
Madison Wisconsin is not longer going to buy power from them. Madison is buying power from PV owners and running their own natural gas turbines.
Do you think they will run this plant to the epitome of safety, or do you think they will cut corners?
They want to sell this thing, to some slum lord.
Great, slumlords running nuke plants.

Solar a Real Life Study, 1 year Operation 20 Panels PV, Mr. Row
Real System, Full Year of Energy Production Data, Day by Day
Solar is incredibly cheap, less than 10% of the cost of buying power from the utility here in Hawaii
This Actual 20 panel System produces at 3.3 cents per kWH. Larger systems like 30 panels can be under 2.9 cents.

Great Weather Plotting Resource
Sure, man's activities are affecting the planet. How much?
How much effect is from other natural processes we may barely understand, like sun spots, cosmic rays, cloud nucleation.
Cap and Trade is just another form of thievery to concentrate power and wealth. The whole CO2 argument is questionable at best. Do your own research.
Nukers promote the CO2 thing as a way to justify more nuke.
And use this really cool website to chart weather data.
Did you know cities are heat sinks. Did you know that cities are getting bigger. Did you know that most temperature data that people use to support "global warming" are based on thermometers in cities. Did you know that pro-nukers lie all the time?
Did you know that you should click some ads and drop some comments?

Dear Friends,
Today, NIRS and 37 other organizations submitted a formal Petition for Rulemaking to the NRC to expand emergency evacuation zones around U.S. nuclear reactors and make other improvements in emergency preparedness. We're calling this the Nuclear 911 campaign.
You can join us as a co-petitioner here!
Baseline is Lie, 5% of dose is from "sun/cosmic", 48% manmade medical
THE LIE: "Background Radiation" is High, Therefore More Radiation Doesn't Matter Much
In some areas, Radon is not completely avoidable. Mostly it seeps into basements. Radon ventilation systems are very effective, they can reduce this amount at least 50% and maybe 80%, just depends how much air you want to move. So instead of a 37% of your exposure if you reduce that 80% it is 7.5%, plus 5% cosmic, and 3% soil, that is 15%. So by "so called 'natural sources" like med procedures, nuke medicine, those items are jacking up your dose like 400% to 700% from where is could be "naturally". the whole natural radiation lie, unravels as a complete joke... about half of us will contract cancer in our lives, and yet you can't prove that any one source caused it. Therefore by the "Scientific Method" radiation cannot be proven to be unsafe, therefore the PNPs Pro Nuke Pimps will state that "natural radiation" is proven to be safe, and therefore a little extra disaster radiation is OK too. Check the chart closely, the PNP lies immediately emerge.

The truth is that TEPCO is playing a delay or wait and see game that the Japanese People cannot afford! In the very least a steam event or a massive hydrovolcaIf I was in charge, I would start N☢W and:
1. Move every remaining fuel rod (spent or otherwise) in the complex to off site locations far away from Fukushima ASAP. This will reduce the potential problems of radioactiv
2. Start drilling core holes uphill from the holed reactors in an effort to reach the groundwate
3. Immediatel
4. Open the site to Internatio
---> Waiting will only save TEPCO money, but not save Japan (or the World) from the risk of Global radioactiv

Exposed the lies of PBS, promoting nuke
More lies of Nukes
You can always expose these at "Da Pimp"
This one examines the lies in the PBS propaganda timed to sway public opinion, create doubt that hey maybe these new plants are really safe….answer is, no they are not, they still involve abusing atoms and an abused atom stays angry and damaged for a long time, ready to bully beat your body in revenge.

Greenpeace send a PROTEST to Washington, no free money to nukes
This simple 1 minute form will let you add your voice to the anti-nukes. Money drives nukes, and greed. This battle will be won on emotions and money. Radiation is invisible, you just won't be able to convince that many people of the danger.
Win with emotions and money. Make nuke more expensive to build and operate. Delay the build whenever possible. That scares investors, because their ROI calcs no longer work. And when the payback is delayed, investors get skittish.

Yankee Bullshit Argument
Umbrage with a bullshit legal argument to support Vermont Yankee
In fact, she wants credit where credit is due, uh-huh
Judge Murtha’s decision makes complete sense. His conclusion is straight out of the Federalist Papers. The authority retained by the federal government invalidates any state legislation that conflicts with federal law or authority. So, the NRC’s federal power to regulate safety at nuclear power plants preempts Vermont’s right to legislate a nuclear power plant out of existence.

MY RESPONSE
Bully, the so-called supremacy clause does not take away a State's or local governments right to exclude certain activities. Just because the Federal Government makes some forms of pornography "legal" does not mean that a State or City must allow all that porn into their shops.

Tamar Cerafici is an environmental lawyer practicing in the areas of environmental, nuclear, and sustainable development law. Feel free to use any material in this guest post; just give credit where credit’s due: to Dan Yurman for asking me, and to me for writing it.Here is why she thinks Vermont Yankee must to allowed to continue operation, regardless of anything Vermont says.

Nuke lets us down, Kills us.
Nuke lets us down time after time.
It is the most dangerous possible way to boil water.
99 accidents --the ones we know about, the ones that they did not succeed in covering up.
"They" try to cover up everything, until forced to fess up.
Stop nuke now.
Shut them down on accidents, and never let them get back up.
Solar is way way cheaper than nuke. Nuke was a stupid experiment, and it has proven itself time and time again that nuke and human life are incompatible.
Stop in here at the nukepimp (anti-nuke) and drop a comment, great resources here that show just how bad nuke is.

Shut Them Dowm, Keep Them Down, Nuclear War
In response to a Fluffpost comment
Two problems at one plant is indicative of the whole industry. Unproven new technologi
Two radiation leaks at two different plants in America in one month shows how precarious nuclear is.
Nuclear needs to be phased out and their huge subsidies redirected to clean energy.
Waiting for a disaster nearby residents and the taxpayers will be stuck paying for is bad policy. 
Yeah, that's perfect, shut them down and keep them down, one at a time.
Each one is victory.
Each plant that is made non-economic to run or repair is a victory.
Maybe we can't convince the pro-nuke crowd that nuke is too powerful for humans to run, but we can convince them that it is too expensive to run.
