Tokyo Electric Power Co. (9501.TO) said Saturday that the temperatures of its No.1 and No.2 reactors at its Fukushima Daini nuclear power station are rising, and it has lost control over pressure in the reactors.
Fukushima Daini station is the second nuclear power plant the company has in Fukushima prefecture in northeastern Japan, where the troubled Fukushima Daiichi plant is located.

I really don’t know.
On one hand, it could be typical media hype.
On the other hand it could be Chernobyl II.
From my rather limited understanding of nuclear reactors, the term “lost control” doesn’t sound good at all...
Any comments?
No cause for concern. Hillary Clinton ordered some more coolant delivered to save the situation.
I read the AP report with my own eyes.
Good God almighty. They need to clear that place out NOW.
Yikes... doesn’t sound good.
I sense yet another “Godzilla” sequel in the making. Or would it be “Them” or “Deadly Mantis”?
Yes...yikes
The Japanese government will say anything necessarty to placate the populace right now, in 5 to 10 years the truth might come out.
They did it here in the US,

previous reports had just Number One in distress with a decision to release radioactive steam for pressure relief being contemplated but not acted on yet. Now we have a Number Two? not good.
I a Japanese engineer says "lost control", than the situation is very, very bad.....
No Nuke info now, though.
It is difficult to imagine the intensity of this earthquake.
I have read reports stating that major portions of Japan have subsided and are now permanently underwater.
At this point it doesn’t matter. Even if it’s contained and resolved without issue. This is going to set the Nuclear industry back at a time when we need to be building nuclear plants.
My heart breaks for the people of Japan...I cannot imagine- it must be like the nightmare that never ends....
I cling to the hope that once they can start to recover- that they become an inspiration to others as to how strong the human spirit is....The Japanese are a proud people...
and I bet our military and their gov’t can get water to the people in need in less than five days....
That is so sad, my prayers go out to all that will be affected by this.
Prayers..and more prayers.
Mostly thanks to the MSM.
