In these times of uncertainty we must conduct ourselves with reserve and resolve. Fear mongering and scare tactics should not be tolerated. However I find myself having a hard time in swallowing the main stream story pertaining to Radiation leaks.
Prepare and educate yourselves NOW so that when the time comes you will have the knowledge you need to react calmly and logically to knowing how to handle the situation and what must be done. This will better enable you and your loved to be prepared to survive.
Panic = disaster. Staying calm, using your head and knowing what to do = survival.

ShortFormBlog Summary Sandwich: Japan Earthquake Recap Edition
- The size and scale of the horrific Sendai Quake that hit Japan last night At 8.9, the quake is the seventh-largest in recorded history and has created a tsunami so large that it’s reached the other side of the Pacific. “Biblical” is a mere starting point.
- Key photos of the quake’s destruction in Japan The crack in the earth is where to start; photos of Sendai’s airport are hard to look at and hard to fathom, as are those from oil refineries.
- Earthquake videos which make us pretty nervous Our friend ProducerMatthew has been all over this, and has grabbed a number of videos showing the destruction. Shocking.
- Economic effects of the Japanese earthquake “This is a tragedy at this particular point Japan did not need,” said the White House’s Lawrence Summers. That’s putting it lightly.
- Humanitarian and diplomatic efforts to help Japan Many key world bodies have stepped forward to help, including the UN, United States, as well as Britain, China, Russia and South Korea.
- How you can help Japan, and why we think that you should donate The Red Cross is working hard to help; they are accepting donations. Ultimately, watching the news is one thing. But reblogs aren’t everything. Your donations, however small, can help more.
Note to readers: This is a new feature we’re testing out that we thought was apt for this particular story. (If you go to the blog, it’s shaped like a really informative sandwich.) Please let us know what you think.
I know I will donate what I can. The images seen are tragic.
