Fukushima updates

Here are the topic summaries of today's Fukushima updates, with a lead commentary on antinuke Peter Bradford. Please use the link for the full reports.
 
Commentary - "Antinuke Peter Bradford speaks with forked tongue" - In a Wall Street Journal debate on nuclear energy viability, Peter Bradford takes the antinuclear side using time-worn rehtoric and making misleading statements, some of which are outright fabrications. Bardford's bombast literally demands this rational rebuttal.
 
Today's Fukushima updates - Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco) has begun new surveys inside the massive Primary Containment (PCV) of Fukushima Daiichi unit #1... A two-day conference on natural disaster risk management is being held the city of Sendai, capital of Miyagi Prefecture, located near the tsunami-devastated coast... The posted minutes of Fukushima Prefecture’s initial disaster recovery meetings have brought new “cover-up” allegations... A Japanese news show (My Game News Flash) has sent ripples through the nation’s Press. Using carefully-edited clips from the nearly 160 hours of released video recorded by Tepco between March 11 and March 16, 2011, it seems that Tepco-Tokyo’s communications with F. Daiichi manager Yoshida were muddled and frustrating.
