Radioactive Cesium in Japanese trout — IT COOKS ITSELF™!
Here in Japan, we’re continually getting fun reports of radioactive bears (3Yen / 2012-11-11) and massive convergences of nuclear jellyfish (3Yen / 2012-10-27). And now there’s this…
Cesium in trout 110 times over limit
The Japan Times | Nov. 18, 2012
A mountain trout caught in the Niida River in Fukushima Prefecture contained 11,400 becquerels of radioactive cesium per kilogram, more than 110 times above the government limit for food products, a survey by the Environment Ministry …more…

TEPCO, Japanese government denying Fukushima radiation reaching ocean fish
The Japan Daily Press / by Adam Westlake / November 20, 2012
…18 months after the March 2011 nuclear disaster, the U.S.’s Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, a respected research group, reported that 40% of the fish caught off the coast of Fukushima were still testing positive for radioactive contamination above the government’s safety own limits.
Scientist Ken Buesseler of Woods Hole stated that while it was expected to still find some levels of contamination, 40% was far too high of a measurement after a year and a half had passed. He said there are only two explanations for radiation remaining in the food chain like this: either there is a source of radioactive cesium somewhere on the seafloor, or it is being discharged into the sea by contaminated groundwater from the Fukushima plant.

“Denial”?
Sheeeeeit, it’s just criminal fraud and 2nd Degree Murder — extreme indifference to human life.
Faulty fallout forecasts’ firm industry-linked
Japan Times | Nov. 23, 2012
A consulting firm linked to the nuclear industry produced erroneous projections for the spread of radiation from reactors in the event of meltdowns…The revelation casts doubt on the ability of the Nuclear Regulation Authority to serve as a watchdog, as it outsourced the projection work to the consultancy through the Japan Nuclear Energy Safety Organization, which originally made a contract for the project and merely released the forecasts.
The projections were created by CSA of Japan Co. According to a credit research firm, CSAJ is a member of the Japan Atomic Industrial Forum nuclear industry body and does business with JNES and a subsidiary of Tohoku Electric Power Co.
The radiation spread projection work was outsourced to the consulting firm for 9.77 million yen by JNES…

Who cares? The S.P.E.E.D. simulations were right and they didn’t use them anyway…

Fish caught near crippled Japanese N-plant with 2,500 times the legal limit of radioactivity for human consumption
• Caught as part of Tokyo Electric’s scheme to monitor seafood near the plant
•Firm says nets will now be installed 20km off the coast to try and prevent contaminated fish migrating
•Fish lives in shallow reefs near the plant
•Comes as the two year anniversary of the nuclear disaster approaches
dailymail.co.uk | 21 January 2013
A fish caught close the the Fukushima nuclear plant is over 2,500 times the legal safe radiation limit for seafood, the plant’s operator has revealed.
The company Tokyo Electric Power (Tepco) caught the fish, dubbed ‘Mike the Murasai’ online, in the bay close to the Fukukshima Daiichi main reactor.
It was confirmed by Tepco to have amounts of radioactive cesium equal to 254,000 becquerels per kilogram, or 2540 times the limit of 100 becquerels/kg set for seafood by the government.

New record! Japan is Number One! Japan had the previous record for radioactive fish last August of 25,800 becquerels of cesium per kilogram but now it’s 510,000 becquerels/kg.
