– Your Radiation This Week No 20 (Veterans Today, Sep 5, 2015):
Aug 29 to Sept 5, 2015
(San Francisco) September 5, 2015 – Good Day, this is “Your Radiation This Week.” These are the recorded Radiation Highs that affected people this week around the United States and in your neighborhood. Let’s get right to it. RADIATION CPM* COMPARISON CITY STATE
Colorado Dust Storm*Listed in Counts per Minute, a Count is One Radioactive Decay Registered by the Instrument.
All Radiation Counts reported are partial Counts. Uncounted types of radiation include Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Neutron and X-Ray radiation. Uncounted radiation, if added, makes the actual Count higher and more dangerous.
The highest radiation reporting city is listed first, the least radioactive city is listed last. Still, all reporting cities are above normal.
Normal Radiation is 5 to 20 CPM. [6]

Highest Recorded Radioactive City in America this week
A new and unfamiliar Leader this week in the race for the Most Radioactive Weather in America is Ft Wayne, Indiana with 1,306 CPM. Congratulations to Ft Wayne, IN as the Most Radioactive City in America this week. Other competing cities for the title were not even close. Three cities exceeded 1,000 CPM this week in Your Rad Weather. Stay Alert and take all appropriate precautions.
Changes – Five New Cities Added
These cities are added to the Rad List in Your Radiation This Week. The cities are: Portland, Maine; Washington, D.C.; Montgomery, Alabama; Ft. Worth, Texas and Champaign, IL.
Isotope Count reporting
These CPM numbers do not represent the real radiation counts in your radiation weather this week. It is actually much higher [worse] than these government certified partial reports say. Use these report numbers as your Starting Point in adding up your daily, monthly and annual exposure from your Rad Weather.
Most radiation monitors report on the radioactive presence of Cesium 137 at the detector. YRTW will report on the secrets the Pros use in estimating the actual Total radiation counts. It is not a pretty picture.
The Lethality from a specific release goes up for 35 years; then the Lethality declines slightly and hangs steady for thousands of years. Regrettably for all Normal Humans that is many generations. The end result, of course, is extinction of our species and all others. Everybody is included; no one is left out. I know of no variety of Humans immune to radiation.
Day One out of the reactor use a Cesium 137/134 CPM multiplier of 150 Times. After 15 days outside the reactor the multiplier is still about 100 times the two similarly named Cesium Isotopes – Cesium 137 and Cesium 134. After 10 years have passed from that release, the Multiplier is Five Times the common published Cesium 137 report.
The Lethality is still increasing though. Yes, the Radiation is going down and the Lethality is going up at the same time for 35 years after a big release. That is a really hard to understand point about Your Rad Weather This Week. Each new major Rad release starts the Cesium countdown clock all over again, too. It gets … complicated; with all the overlapping and the daily releases.
Here’s how you can calculate an estimate of your Total Rad today: Use a reported account of your Cesium 137 CPM and Multiply Times 5. Another way to say it is Cs137CPM X 5.0 = Your Total Radiation Estimate. That’s it. No magic. Just the facts as close as you can calculate it. Good Luck.
However, provided Cesium 134 is present you are experiencing a recent radioactive release and all bets are off. Why is that? Because the two Rad Isotopes decay at greatly different rates. The relatively long lived Cs 137 is half gone in 30.1 years. The shorter lived Cesium 134 is half gone in only 2.06 years. As a result the Multiplier changes very rapidly.
Radiation types commonly measured by radiation monitors include Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Neutron and X-Ray radiation. Only Beta and Gamma are reported by the EPA and here on YRTW. The only thing they have in common is that all will kill you. There are also 1,944 known individual Rad elements, only a few are ever mentioned in articles.
In short, the newer disaster’s Cesium 137/134 immediate radiation readings so conveniently echoed by official news outlets tell you right away by simple Multiplication how big the disaster really is. Think of it as the insider’s secret code. Multiply away!
How often do radioactive releases occur? The answer is: Radioactive releases occur daily in most reactors. This almost daily reactor Venting does complicate your health and your estimated Rad readings. May you always have better Rad Weather; but, that’s not likely.
Isotope detectors
If you have a lot of money you can buy an Isotope detector that will tell you the name of isotopes it is tuned to detect. They are excellent tools for determining specific Rad elements. More power to you if you can afford one, or a group of you can pony up the Bucks to buy one. In this case knowledge is power. That kind of power can only be bought.Without it, you have what the Pro-Nukers laughingly refer to in our lives as “A shortened life span.” That means the Pro-nukers are joyfully killing people these 70 years now and have no intention of stopping. I mean, after all, they get rich slaughtering us.Jeeeez, where is Master Sergeant Woods, 3rd Army Hangman in WWII? We need him to hang these Stainless Steel Psychopaths and their political henchmen, all legal like. Previous editions of YRTW

Have a wonderful radioactive weekend and remember to Dodge the Rads, it’s dangerous out there!

A woman whom I have hired to prepare meals for me suggest seafood…..I told her the Japanese nuclear fallout has made any of the wonderful fish & shellfish too high in radiation to be safe eating………….Assuming one can find any…..She didn’t know what I was talking about………Thats US media for you.
I turned on the financial channel yesterday morning, and saw the weekend media has gotten worse than the last time I looked…..Every news outlet was shut down, except for:
Fox which was putting out emotional right wing fear monger stories and promoting Trump as part of their news coverage.
CNN which offered an hour show on that old bag supposedly “front runner”of the democrats, and the top 4 republican creeps. No mention of Sanders who is beating the false front runer in all polls. Their show started with a false news item on Trump, how he was way ahead of the other top 4 by double digits.
Aljazzera which covered the wars in Libya, Guatemala, Iraq & other war torn nations.
All other news channels, all the financials, including Bloomerg, had shows promoting people wanting to launch startups seeking investors…..TV viewers can get a slice of the good life, be part of a new industry……Rubbish……
Hey Guys….How about a product that can cool and cease radioactive fallout like Fukushima, New Mexico, Washington State and California???????????
I went back to my movies copied on my DVR……..
After looking over those lists, all I can say is that the numbers are very deceptive, and radiation consider normal must have been raised……I was reminded of the unemployment statistic now promoted at 5.1%…….At full employment regardless nearly half of all working age Americans now suffer from long term unemployment………These are lies…..Patently obvious lies……
Look at our Pacific Ocean……there is nothing normal about what is happening to our sea life and our beaches….sea life being exterminated while our seashores are over run with barnacles and jellyfish…..No more sea shells…….
Nothing put out by any government agency, city, state or federal is true…..All are corporate owned. Thanks to the supreme court, it is legal and official…..Corporations now fund and promote every elected office from city official to the president of the US……Totally corrupted…….
We are finished, a nation and a planet on the downward cycle……..
