When it comes to the truth about radiation and health effects,
there are no experts who are honest - not in government, not in science, not anywhere. Yet, people would rather
listen to liars than challenge their assumptions about the sources of the so-called truth and disregard the purveyors
of actual truth on this topic: the non-creditialed self-taught. - Andrew Kishner, May 18, 2013

What you can learn in the book: Every cancer and leukemia
since 1945 can be fractionally blamed on one thing: nuclear testing fallout. 'Chernobyl fallout' was 90-95% from Chernobyl and the rest from a covered-up U.S. nuclear release. There are dozens of nuclear reactors orbiting us - many have crashed on Earth. The U.S. may have replicated a 'Hiroshima' inferno on actual humans (in cages in Nevada). Your cremated remains mixed into water would be undrinkable per the EPA because of its strontium-90 levels.

LaSalle Falls Apart, Operator Asks NRC If They Can Put a Hemi
In It- Exelon is proceeding with a formal request to the NRC for a mega-power boost (aka
'uprate') at the LaSalle plant to increase thermal output by a whopping 12.5%. Also, it has
been learned that the culprit of the technical shutdown of LaSalle Unit 1 reactor on
April 27th was the same exact valve that failed
following a scram in February 2011 due to a welding defect. The recommended fix (buy a new one, duh!) was apparently not heeded;
Status: LaSalle 1 is being restarted (at 22%). LaSalle 2 is at 1% power.

The Buzz About The S-Word
by Andrew Kishner

August 28, 2008
The buzz in Idaho this week is all about Andrea Shipley's use of the S-Word.
On August 11, Andrea, who is director of Idaho's nuclear watchdog group, the
Snake River Alliance, called an Idaho nuke developer 'scammers' on a television
broadcast. The developer, Alternate Energy Holdings (AEHI), wants to build a 1,600
mega-watt nuclear power plant in Idaho, however the project's critics are troubled
by a growing list of problems with the company. On the broadcast, Shipley was
discussing AEHI's financial condition, which the company's auditor characterized
earlier this month in quite possibly the bleakest of terms: its "significant operating losses
raise substantial doubt about [AEHI's] ability to continue as a going concern."
Shipley remarked on the news broadcast: "These guys are scammers. Regardless
of how you feel about nuclear energy, these guys are scamming Idahoans."
On August 22, it was learned that AEHI filed a defamation suit in an Idaho district
court alleging that Shipley's comment was aimed at defaming the company's
officials and harming its stock.
This week, while Shipley's nonprofit is not commenting to the press while they are
seeking legal representation, the blogosphere and the comments sections of recent
news articles on the matter are exploding with mudslinging and heated debate.
Whether it's the S-Word or any other word, one thing, however, is clear: Shipley knew
what she was saying and doing. She holds an English degree from the University
of Montana and an Associate Degree in Journalism from Northwest Community College.
So one can't argue that Shipley didn't know what 'scammers' meant or even the
consequences of saying it on a television broadcast.
The question is whether or not the District Court Judge will think that AEHI is
getting carried away with a public remark by Shipley that probably - at that time
- only raised some eyebrows and did negligible damage to the company's reputation.
If so, then the judge's decision about the case will be summed up in another word that
will be substantive news that you won't need an English degree to understand: 'Dismissed'.
