    ALL nuclear power will be ended in Germany by 2022. All but three stations will closed by 2021, wityh the final three being shuttered and buried the next year, if they need the power still, but not after. In related news, Germany plans to double renewables by 2020. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/europe/germany-decides-to-pull-plug-on-nuclear-power/article2039434/ Go ahead and troll rate me down, it won't change the news.

  9. Re:"May be" "Possibly" "Calm down" "Sleep" on Crack In Fukushima Structure May Be Leaking Radiation · · Score: 1

    No, the story is far from out as to what the hell is going on, but the levels have reached well beyond what we were not worry about "because it isn't this high". Let me post once again the link to xkcd's excellent map of radiation levels. http://xkcd.com/radiation/

  10. Re:"May be" "Possibly" "Calm down" "Sleep" on Crack In Fukushima Structure May Be Leaking Radiation · · Score: 2

    I mean, the levels of radiation are well past what previous posts and "calm down advocates" have said "well its not this bad" - it is now.

    Please, my older slashing friends, mod this up, mod this up so we can begin to have the discussion. The discussion is dying away in the press, and that dying away has "calmed" our discussions. People who love both science and life must begin to scream that this is front page for any paper or any TV (except Foxnews I guess). Please, lets begin the discussion, please.

    Its less than one percent that have been released so far. 1,942 of 250,000 cables.

  16. Re:Perspective on Why WikiLeaks Is Unlike the Pentagon Papers · · Score: 2

    Mr. Assange is giving the materials, a few at a time, to the NYT, and others, so that they may determine, in their journalistic opinion, based not just in support of a single government, but with the principles they hold defending democracy. It must always be remembered, the data is being filtered, and redacted, and withheld, if immediate danger to individuals is expected, among other reasons. I for one am glad that The Guardian, El Pais and Le Monde have access too. He is not releasing all the data at once, or just on the opinions of wikileak volunteers or staff.

  17. Re:Journalistic Hubris on Why WikiLeaks Is Unlike the Pentagon Papers · · Score: 1

    "Very noble of them to take on this weighty responsibility." As in a people governing themselves, as in government of the people by the people for the people. Which is I think very noble of them, to take on this weighty responsibility, but more than noble, Americans have offered their lives over and over again to ensure that such a government shall not perish from the earth.

    some has been swapped out, in an arsenate rich, phosphate lacking environment. The arsenate mimics the phosphate, but is a weaker molecule, and as such it cannot be swapped in - in some chemical bonds, which remain phosphorus based.
