This is a modest hommage to the courageous people of Fukushima prefecture. They survived a triple disaster in 2011 and are now, nine years later, still fighting with the consequences. I wish them well in their strugle for their beautiful province and thank them for their kindness during this trip.
Fukushima is the third largest prefecture in Japan (14,000 km²), and one of its least densely populated. The prefecture is divided into three main regions: Aizu in the west, Naka dori in the centre and Hama dori in the east. Aizu is mountainous with snowy winters, while the climate in Hama dori is moderated by the Pacific Ocean.
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster (福島第一原子力発電所事故 Fukushima Dai-ichi (About this soundpronunciation) genshiryoku hatsudensho jiko) was a nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Ōkuma, Fukushima Prefecture. The disaster was the most severe nuclear accident since the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster and the only other disaster to be given the Level 7 event classification of the International Nuclear Event Scale.
The accident was started by the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011.] On detecting the earthquake, the active reactors automatically shut down their fission reactions. Because of the reactor trips and other grid problems, the electricity supply failed, and the reactors' emergency diesel generators automatically started. Critically, they were powering the pumps that circulated coolant through the reactors' cores to remove decay heat, which continues after fission has ceased. The earthquake generated a 14-meter-high tsunami that swept over the plant's seawall and flooded the plant's lower grounds around the Units 1–4 reactor buildings with sea water, filling the basements and knocking out the emergency generators. The resultant loss-of-coolant accidents led to three nuclear meltdowns, three hydrogen explosions, and the release of radioactive contamination in Units 1, 2 and 3 between 12 and 15 March. The spent fuel pool of previously shut-down Reactor 4 increased in temperature on 15 March due to decay heat from newly added spent fuel rods, but did not boil down sufficiently to expose the fuel.
In the days after the accident, radiation released to the atmosphere forced the government to declare an ever larger evacuation zone around the plant, culminating in an evacuation zone with a 20-kilometer radius. All told, some 154,000 residents evacuated from the communities surrounding the plant due to the rising off-site levels of ambient ionizing radiation caused by airborne radioactive contamination from the damaged reactors.
Large amounts of water contaminated with radioactive isotopes were released into the Pacific Ocean during and after the disaster. Michio Aoyama, a professor of radioisotope geoscience at the Institute of Environmental Radioactivity, has estimated that 18,000 terabecquerel (TBq) of radioactive caesium 137 were released into the Pacific during the accident, and in 2013, 30 gigabecquerel (GBq) of caesium 137 were still flowing into the ocean every day. The plant's operator has since built new walls along the coast and also created a 1.5-kilometer-long "ice wall" of frozen earth to stop the flow of contaminated water.
While there has been ongoing controversy over the health effects of the disaster, a 2014 report by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) and World Health Organization projected no increase in miscarriages, stillbirths or physical and mental disorders in babies born after the accident. An ongoing intensive cleanup program to both decontaminate affected areas and decommission the plant will take 30 to 40 years, plant management estimate.
On 5 July 2012, the National Diet of Japan Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission (NAIIC) found that the causes of the accident had been foreseeable, and that the plant operator, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), had failed to meet basic safety requirements such as risk assessment, preparing for containing collateral damage, and developing evacuation plans. At a meeting in Vienna three months after the disaster, the International Atomic Energy Agency faulted lax oversight by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, saying the ministry faced an inherent conflict of interest as the government agency in charge of both regulating and promoting the nuclear power industry. On 12 October 2012, TEPCO admitted for the first time that it had failed to take necessary measures for fear of inviting lawsuits or protests against its nuclear plants.
I thought this had almost a spaghetti-western feel to it, except for all the green grass of course.

Professor Gianluigi Vernasca asks what are the main economic consequences if the UK left the European Union?
Note inserted on a separate sheet of paper with my new house insurance. It's the first proper evidence I've seen of the effect of the European referendum on me, directly - without directly attributing it to Brexit.
What it's saying is that I have bought a policy from a company that intends to move its head office from the UK to Luxembourg soon. This means if I have any complaints about their service, the local authorities will only be able to deal with a 'branch' of the company, not the company itself. To do that, I am obliged to consult one of three alternatives, two of whom I have never heard of (because my mother tongue is not French). It could also suggest various other things, but I will leave the viewer to decide what they are.
But what it says to me is that this is the thin end of the wedge. Expect to see more and more of this, particularly as your various insurance policies expire. How are we 'taking back control', if all the smart money is shipping out?
Health, addiction and law enforcement leaders gathered June 23 at a press conference called by U.S. Sen. Tom Carper to detail the negative consequences that health reform legislation in Washington would have for Delaware’s response to the addiction epidemic.
“The bills under consideration by Congress are inhumane,” said Dr. Karyl Rattay, director of DHSS’ Division of Public Health, at the gathering held at the New Castle County Public Safety Building. She said the reductions in Medicaid spending will mean fewer people will seek treatment for addiction. “People will suffer and people will die.” In 2016, 308 died in Delaware from overdoses, up 35% from 2015.
Sen. Carper said Medicaid would be cut by more than $800 billion over the next 10 years, cutting Delaware’s Medicaid budget by more than $2 billion. Medicaid is the largest payer of addiction treatment services, paying for 21% of all related care in 2014.
New Castle County Executive Matt Meyer said first responders have administered the opioid-reversing medication naloxone 1,135 times since he’s been in office. “But it only works if we have a health care system to back it up,” he said. New Castle County EMS Chief Larry Tan said, “Every day in New Castle there’s a race against time.” He said paramedics have four to six minutes to administer naloxone before someone who has overdosed suffers permanent damage or death.
Dave Humes, a board member of atTAcK addiction who lost his son, Greg, to an accidental overdose in 2012, said Medicaid is a lifeline to so many who have lost their jobs, their homes or their families to the disease of addiction. Of the health care legislation in Washington, he said, “Never have so few been so cruel to so many."
Bettina Tweardy Riveros, chief health equity officer and senior vice president for government affairs and community engagement at Christiana Care Health Systems, said 70% of the patients the health care system sees for addiction-related issues are covered by Medicaid. “Community partners like Connections and Brandywine Counseling provide ongoing treatment, medication-assisted therapy and other therapies to support these individuals,” she said. “Without access to Medicaid, that infrastructure is at risk of falling apart."

The building almost looks like it's tipping over. Haha, it amuses me.
todo confuso ,todo descontrolado ,todo inmerso en la euforia del momento ;inconciente de las consecuencias ,de los actos ,incapaz de razonar los pensamientos alocados que se integran en tu mente & te parece exitante la idea de realizarlos ,como para liberar tu alma y espíritu de los problemas que te hunden y agobian cada dia...se puede llamar un refugio ocacional ,pero si no lo sabes equilibrar te puede apresar...& de eso no podrás escapar ./
We finally have our outdoor tub in place. There is still some work
that needs to be done around the electric and plumbing, but it is
pretty minor stuff. The placement of the tub allows us to enjoy the
mountain view which we had not been doing before the tub went in.

My 1969-model Yamaha AS2 (125cc twin). In 2005 we sold our house in Pretoria, South Africa to buy a second property in the UK. As a consequence, we had to take everything out of storage at the old home and make alternate storage arrangements. I moved the bike from Lynnwood Manor to my mother-in-law's place in Waverley where it went into storage on February 27. Later that year, on Wednesday, October 5, 2005, I pulled it out to shoot these photos.

While out taking pictures last night, I bumped into a couple kids who were waiting for a movie to start. They approached me, asking about my chopper and my camera.
It turns out we had something in common. Pain.
We had all suffered from several major physical injuries and had to learn pain management. None of us use narcotics to deal with the constant pain - we were well aware of the consequences of pain management and heavy drugs. One of the young guys knew this all too well.
His mother used prescription medications to manage her physical pain. He found her one day, overdosed. Dead.
