Citizens' group in Fukushima puts out radiation map in English
The cover of "Citizens' Radiation Data Map of Japan" (Provided by Minna-No Data Site)
November 3, 2019
FUKUSHIMA—A citizens' group here has released an English radiation-level map for eastern Japan created with input from 4,000 volunteers in response to requests from abroad ahead of the Tokyo Olympics.
"We want people outside Japan to understand the reality of radioactive contamination following the nuclear accident," said Nahoko Nakamura, a representative of Minna-No Data Site (Everyone's Data Site), which published the map.
The Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant experienced a triple meltdown in March 2011 after a tsunami knocked out its cooling systems during the Great East Japan Earthquake.
Titled "Citizens' Radiation Data Map of Japan," the 16-page booklet summarizes the content of the original Japanese map, released in November last year. It also shows projected declines in radiation levels by 2041.
The Japanese version was based on results of land contamination surveys conducted over three years at the request of Everyone's Data Site.
About 4,000 volunteers took soil samples at 3,400 locations in 17 prefectures in eastern Japan, including Fukushima and Tokyo, and measured radiation levels. The map was compiled with advice from experts.
The group raised 6.23 million yen ($57,500) from 1,288 individuals through a crowdfunding campaign. So far, 15,000 copies have been sold.
Nakamura said the group decided to produce an English version after it received inquiries about the Japanese map from researchers and others overseas in the run-up to the Tokyo Olympics.
Everyone's Data Site spent about four months creating the English map, working through e-mail and online chats with five volunteer translators overseas, including an American and a Canadian.
The English edition sells for 500 yen, excluding tax. For more information, contact Everyone's Data Site at (email@example.com).
Fukushima is not safe for 2020 Olympics, nuclear scientists warn
October 30, 2019
Would Russia hold the 1994 Olympics at Chernobyl, the site of the 1986 meltdown? Only 8-years later, do we really think it's safe to hold the Olympics on Fukushima soil? What would common sense tell us?
But these are very dark times.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC), the Japanese government, and most news media have ignored the risks one of the worst nuclear disasters in world history: the 2011 Fukushima power plant meltdown.
For years afterward, the Japanese government struggled what to do with millions of gallons of contaminated water and tens of thousands of Japanese refugees. Instead of safer measures, they chose the cheapest solution, spinning the truth in favor of profit and national image over human life.
Scientists warned that almost everything on land is contaminated, and this may include Tokyo which sits 100 kilometers from Fukushima.
Radiation levels may beyond what is safe for humans
According to 60 Minutes Australia, many experts are asking for the Fukushima Olympics to be canceled due to radioactive contamination. Yet, when The Washington Post ran an article on the struggles Fukushima and the residents are facing, there is no mention of what dangers Olympians and spectators may face in an area that has radiation levels way beyond what is safe for humans. Such high levels are likely to continue for decades to come.
In fact, in that same article, Simon Denyer wrote that when it rains, the water itself is radioactive. Residents feel forced by the Japanese government to return, as the government cuts pensions if residents refuse, essentially forcing them and their children for increased risk of cancer and other health problems. Childhood cancer is increasing in the affected zones, Denyer reports.
Why the silence? Where is the IOC? Is it okay for athletes and spectators to spend two weeks in a radioactive zone so that the Japanese government can make everyone forget that radiation exposure is no big deal? Such wouldn't have to do with money over human life would it? Where is the U.S. news media that often looks for just a big story like this to crack? Why the silence?
As for Japan, what choice does it have but to move forward and accept that almost its entire population is inevitably exposed to radiation.
This is not something they can fix, so the government must reinvent Fukushima as a safe and wonderful place, a place where one can eat the vegetables and fruits from Fukushima, and they can live there healthy and happy. What better way than to repackage horrible facts with a new Fukushima, a safer, healthier one? However, they will have to force their residents to come back in order to seal such a wonderful myth.
Smelling a Nuclear Rat?
Dahr Jamail interviewed Arnie Gunderson that oversaw dozens of nuclear power plant projects in the United States. He faults the Japanese government and the nuclear power plant industry in pushing residents to go back to Fukushima before the 2020 Games. Even more surprising is that the IOC is also, according to Jamail, making very light over the known toxicity of Fukushima where the softball and baseball events will be played. Denyer, however, verified that six total events will take place in Fukushima. Gunderson, with 45 years' experience with nuclear energy companies says that the goal is profit and that public health is not being considered.
Thyroid cancer, Jamail writes, already is increasing within the 310-mile radius of the disaster, and instances of cancer among children is increasing as well. In fact, the radiation is not decreasing but increasing at the power plants. Dr. Tadahiro Katsuta of Meiji University in Japan makes the Japanese motive clear: the Japanese government is putting its public image and money over the lives of its citizens. The Japanese government is also putting international athletes and citizens at risk with little regard for their health and safety.
Reporters Dave Zirin and Jules Boykoff went through Fukushima with a radioactive tester. They noted that a reading over 0.23 is seen as unsafe for humans. As they neared the Fukushima Daiichi Unit 1 reactor, the needle read 3.77. The Olympic torch is scheduled to pass near this area.
Who Works in Radioactive Zones without Protection? Athletes and Migrant Workers
They witnessed in Fukushima workers without protective suits putting contaminated soil in black plastic bags and piling them in "pyramids." While some agencies dispute how dangerous Fukushima is, what is clear is that the Japanese government raised the exposure benchmark for radiation from 1mSV a year to 20 MSV per year, the reporters noted. As an international journalist based in Japan stated, the Japanese government is pushing "propaganda over truth." The IOC seems happy to play along.
Tens of thousands of Japanese refugees are still displaced and not willing to go back. The question is why wouldn't people back to their homes, many of which whose families lived there for generations, if it were safe? Why would the IOC be so willing to host the games at a questionable site, even if such posed the slightest risks to athletes?
It does not take a nuclear engineer or scientist to understand that radiation contamination lasts for many years. Why build Olympic venues eight years after that very place had a nuclear disaster? Isn't such a push egregious, irresponsible, and shameful? Common sense would tell any organizer of any event that such an event should not be placed in areas that could potentially put people at risk.
It's time to hold the Japanese government and the IOC responsible for their hasty and reckless push to ignore the risks facing displaced citizens, spectators, and athletes and demand that the games be postponed and moved from Fukushima.
These are indeed dark times, where governments and their ties to corporate interests spin truths and make fictions that all of us would like to be real, but sadly money is always at the end of this contaminated rainbow. In the years to come, when the cancer cases mount, these same organizations and governments will pretend they knew nothing. Let's all remember that.
Warning on Fukushima fallout for Tokyo 2020 Olympians
The danger of sourcing food and material from the Fukushima region
South Korea express concern about food from Fukushima as Tokyo 2020 Chef de Mission Seminar begins
August 20, 2019
The Korean Sport and Olympic Committee (KSOC) has written to Tokyo 2020 organisers to express concern about food from Fukushima being served at the Games.
Organisers confirmed to Reuters that a letter on the issue had been sent on the opening day of the Tokyo 2020 Chef de Mission Seminar.
Fukushima was struck by one of the worst natural disasters ever to hit Japan in 2011, when a devastating earthquake and tsunami caused an accident at a nuclear power plant.
Around 16,000 people lost their lives in the tragedy.
Both Tokyo 2020 and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) have been keen to promote the Games as a tool which could help with the region's recovery.
Baseball and softball matches will be staged there and Fukushima prefecture will also host the start of the Japanese leg of the Torch Relay.
Produce from Fukushima has been served at official events, including IOC Coordination Commissions, but the KSOC said they are worried about contamination.
Their letter comes at a period of increasing tension between Japan and South Korea.
"Within our planning framework we will respond to them accordingly," said Toru Kobayash, Tokyo 2020's director of NOC services, to Reuters.
"We have said that we will respond to them properly.
"We have had no further questions [from South Korea]."
A trade war has developed between the two countries with South Korea also angry about reported Japanese plans to dump "toxic" water from Fukushima into the Pacific Ocean.
Some voices have even called for a Korean boycott of the Games with the nations further clashing over the appearance of disputed islands on an official Tokyo 2020 Torch Relay map.
The map on the official website includes the Liancourt Rocks, which are governed by South Korea but claimed by Japan.
South Korea calls the islands Dokdo but in Japan they are known as Takeshima, and both countries claim historical ties.
They lie in the Sea of Japan in between the two countries and are valuable due to rich fishing waters and natural gas deposits.
Elsewhere, concerns over sweltering conditions were discussed on day one of the Seminar at the Hotel New Otani.
Rising heat has developed into a major concern before Tokyo 2020 with more than 50 deaths in July as temperatures in Japan approached 40 degrees celsius.
Athletes have also struggled in the weather at the test events, including rowers suffering heatstroke at the World Junior Championships at the Sea Forest Waterway.
The triathlon event was shortened because of the humid conditions while cooling measures were tested at the beach volleyball.
The Tokyo 2020 Olympics are due to open on July 24 next year.
Among the measures being considered to combat the problem is allowing fans to bring their own bottled water into venues under certain conditions, which had previously been banned at past editions of the Olympic Games due to security and sponsorship reasons.
Misting sprays, air-conditioned tents and special road coatings are other plans put forward by organisers, as well as moving some events to earlier in the day.
Dutch Chef de Mission Pieter van den Hoogenband, who faced the media on behalf of attending National Olympic Committees (NOCs), said he was impressed with how organisers were handling the issue.
"Of course we know there are some heat issues but overall, for all the different teams, these are the circumstances and we have to deal with it," the triple Olympic champion said to Reuters.
"Top athletes know that they have to perform in any circumstances.
"Because of the test events, we get a lot of information and a lot of data and the way the Organising Committee is taking all that data to make it even more perfect…
"I was impressed with the way they handled things."
Organisers have also pledged to install triple-layer screens in Tokyo Bay to combat bacteria in the water.
It comes after the discovery of E.coli which forced the cancellation of the swimming leg at the Paratriathlon test event.
The three-day Seminar continues tomorrow with every NOC invited to attend.
Representatives from the IOC and the Association of National Olympic Committees are also present.
A full progress update has been promised as well as a venue tour.
Tokyo's Fukushima cesium-enriched microparticle (CsMP) update
Secondary electron images from Utsunomiya et al. 2019, of CsMPs discovered in atmospheric particles trapped on a Tokyo air filter from March 15, 2011, with major constituent elements displayed.
August 17th, 2019
An interesting paper was recently published by a team headed by Dr. Satoshi Utsunomiya of Kyushu University on the subject of Fukushima-derived cesium-enriched microparticles (CsMPs). As many readers will know, several researchers have located and analyzed these microparticles, in which the cesium is often bonded within glass-like silicates and therefore generally significantly less soluble than other Cs chemical species in water, though technically not actually "insoluble." After an accident like Fukushima, it is much more common to find cesium in water-soluble compounds like cesium hydroxide (CsOH), and predictions about how quickly the cesium will be dispersed through the environment, in soil, in watersheds, taken up by plants and animals, etc, are based primarily on this assumption. The discovery of sparingly-soluble Fukushima-derived cesium microparticles, first documented by Adachi et al in 2013, and since then confirmed by many others, has raised a number of questions. How abundant are they? Does their presence increase health risk to humans? How much do they reveal about the process of the accident itself? From the standpoint of researchers the microparticles are very intriguing.
Utsunomiya et al.'s paper is titled "Caesium fallout in Tokyo on 15th March, 2011 is dominated by highly radioactive, caesium-rich microparticles," and as noted in a recent Scientific American article, it was originally accepted for publication in 2017 by Scientific Reports journal. Weeks before publication, however, Tokyo Metropolitan Industrial Technology Research Institute (TIRI), operated by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, raised objections with Scientific Reports. However no questions about the quality of the science or the validity of the paper's findings appear to have been brought forward. This in itself was highly irregular. Two years elapsed without resolution, and in March of this year Scientific Reports took the highly unusual step of withdrawing its offer to publish the paper, despite the lack of confirmed evidence that would warrant it. Utsunomiya and several co-authors decided that the best course of action was to place the study in the public domain by publishing it via arXiv, a highly respected pre-print website. The paper is now open and free to download.
This study makes a valuable contribution to the body of scientific literature regarding the consequences of the Fukushima disaster in general and CsMPs in particular. I think it was a mistake for Scientific Reports not to publish it two years ago, especially considering the rapid pace of research into these particles and the tremendous interest in them. To summarize the findings briefly, the researchers analyzed air filter samples from March 15, 2011, in Setagaya, Tokyo, when the radioactive plume from Fukushima caused a noticeable peak in airborne radioactivity in the city. The researchers used radiographic imaging (placing the filters on a photographic plate) to identify any highly radioactive spots. Using these images as a guide they were able to isolate seven CsMPs, which they subjected to atomic-scale analysis using high-resolution electron microscopy (HRTEM) to identify their nano-scale structure and chemical composition. Based on these detailed measurements and quantitative analysis, the researchers concluded that 80-89% of the total cesium fallout in Tokyo that day was in the form of highly radioactive microparticles. The second half of the paper is devoted to estimates of how long such particles might be retained in the human lungs if inhaled, based on previous studies that reported the effects of inhalation of non-radioactive atmospheric particles, and some possible physical consequences. The paper is valuable for the quantitative analysis of the Tokyo particles alone, since it is one of few studies that deal with the issue for Tokyo specifically. Research into possible health consequences of the particles, meanwhile, has gained momentum while the paper remained unpublished, using approaches such as stochastic biokinetics, and DNA damage studies. In a recent paper, Utsunomiya and colleagues produced estimates of the rate of dissolution of the particles inside the human lung, in pure water, and in seawater. A working group at the Japan Health Physics Society has also devoted attention to the issue, noting the need for further study of the risk from intake of these particles, particularly to the lung. Likewise, others have been studying the particles to learn about the accident progression and possible consequences for decommissioning.
Why did Tokyo Metropolitan Industrial Technology Research Institute object to the paper's publication? When we first heard that publication of the paper was being held up by Tokyo Metropolitan Government, we thought politically-motivated suppression was a likely explanation. Since then the public has learned that the actual complaint given to Scientific Reports stems from a chain of custody issue of the original air filter samples. We don't want to speculate further about Tokyo's motivation, because we have seen no direct evidence yet of political suppression in this case. But based on past occurrences with other government institutions, we would find it plausible. We will let readers know if TIRI responds to our inquiries.
We spoke with Dr. Utsunomiya and co-author Dr. Rodney Ewing recently. I was aware of their co-authorship of several strong papers on CsMPs, including Utsunomiya's plenary talk at the Goldschmidt Conference in Yokohama in 2016, which I attended. I asked how this new arXiv paper fits in with their other papers, and where they think this research is heading next:
Satoshi Utsunomiya:
Thank you for asking. The Tokyo paper was actually our first paper regarding CsMPs. As I mentioned, the paper was accepted two years ago. There were no previous papers of ours on CsMPs that time. Currently we are working on several topics on CsMPs. I cannot reveal the content yet, as we are thinking about a press release for the next paper. But I think it is important to continue this kind of research, providing some insights for decommissioning at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.
Azby Brown:
I didn't realize that this was your first paper on the subject. How does it relate to the one presented at the Goldschmidt Conference in Yokohama in 2016? "Cesium-Rich Micro-Particles Unveil the Explosive Events in the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant." Didn't that paper receive a prize?
My talk at Goldschmidt briefly covered the story described in the two papers that were accepted for publication at the same time. One was published in Scientific Reports. The other one was not published. There was no prize. It was a plenary talk.
I see. I recall that it received a lot of attention. Now it makes more sense to me.
Can you tell me a little bit about the specific characteristics and focus of your research, and how it differs from papers like Adachi 2013, Abe 2014, etc? Generally speaking, that is. I'd like to help people understand the different aspects of the field.
Adachi reported the discovery of CsMPs. Abe demonstrated X-ray absorption analysis on the CsMPs. We focused on the nanotexture inside CsMPs. We are particularly interested in the detailed evidence remaining within the microparticle, which can provide useful information on the development of the chemical reactions during the meltdowns, because it is still difficult to directly analyze the materials inside the reactors. We, for the first time, succeeded in performing isotopic analysis on individual CsMPs. More specifically, the occurrence of uranium can directly tell the story of how the fuel melted. Our research has two directions: one is to understand the environmental impact of CsMPs, and the other is to provide useful information on the debris properties to help decommissioning at FDNPP. We are also interested in the implications for health.
Can you tell me a little bit about your working relationship? Satoshi went to the US to work in your lab, right Rod? When was that, and what were you working on?
Rod Ewing:
Satoshi and I have known each other since 2000, when he joined my research group as a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Michigan. He was a member of the research group until 2007. We collaborated on a wide range of topics that had to do with radioactive materials, such as the transport of plutonium at the Mayak site in Russia to the identification of uranium phases within C60 cages, so called buckyballs, that were formed and released from coal power plants. Once Satoshi returned to Japan to take his position at Kyushu University, we continued to collaborate, particularly on topics related to Fukushima Daiichi.
How did you both get interested in CsMPs?
Once discovered, CsMPs were clearly of high interest. They had not been noted in earlier reactor accidents. Satoshi is a master with the transmission electron microscope – exactly the tool/technique needed to study these particles.
For people who aren't familiar with what's involved in a research experiment like yours, can you describe the overall process? What were the technical challenges?
I would just emphasize that it is very difficult to find and characterize these particles. Considering the full literature and efforts by others as well as our team – the results are impressive. It is rare to have both the TEM characterization and the isotopic data.
As Rod mentioned, it is difficult to obtain both TEM and isotopic data from a few micron-sized spots. The isolation of CsMPs from soils is a time consuming process. But to date, many scientists have found and isolated CsMPs. The important thing is what information we can obtain from the analysis of CsMPs. We have been taking various approaches to elucidate the properties, environmental impact, and the role in releasing fissile actinides to the environment.
As described above, many papers examining various aspects of Fukushima-derived cesium microparticles have been published since they were first identified in 2013. Even so, important aspects remain only partially documented and understood to date. Below is a partial list of relevant publications.

Novellas express anger after Fukushima disaster
"Sacred Cesium Ground and Isa's Deluge: Two Novellas of Japan's 3/11 Disaster," by Yusuke Kimura, translated by Doug Slaymaker (Columbia University Press, 2019, 176 pages, $60 hardcover, $20 paperback)
May 2, 2019
TOKYO >> An anger directed toward Tokyo underlies Yusuke Kimura's two novellas, "Sacred Cesium Ground" and "Isa's Deluge." Born from a keen sense of abandonment felt by the Tohoku region in the aftermath of the catastrophic earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011, and the subsequent nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, this anger plays out across stories exploring the post-disaster relationships between humans and animals.
The protagonist in "Sacred Cesium Ground" is a woman who travels to Fukushima Prefecture to volunteer at the Fortress of Hope, a farm where cattle irradiated by the Fukushima No. 1 power plant meltdown are tended to despite a government order to kill them.
Based on the story of a real post-Fukushima ranch, the novella carries with it a weight of research born from the author's own volunteering, though it proves ultimately unsatisfying, never quite reaching the moment of reinvention that the lead character hints at throughout.
"Isa's Deluge" is the more readable of the two, with a flow and pacing that draws in the reader. Shortlisted for the Mishima Yukio Prize after it was first published in 2012, it follows a family of fishermen who relate the story of their uncle Isa and his "deluge" of pain and depression, an allegory of the 3/11 tsunami.
Both novellas highlight peripheral voices in the post-3/11 period and ultimately return time and again to that tension between a "sacrificial" Tohoku and an all-powerful capital. These perspectives are those not frequently heard and challenge the widespread narrative of an ever-dominant Tokyo.

Coach Zdravko Logarusic and his players are fired up psychologically to deliver success in the 2016/17 Premier League. They will give the clear indication of their intent when they host Liberty Professionals on match day one at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium this Sunday.
"We've worked hard in the pre-season. Now is the time to show our readiness.
I know the expectation is high against Liberty but trust Kotoko for the maximum points" said skipper Amos Frimpong in an interview at press time.
The Porcupine Warriors last won the league in the 2013/14 plus the FA Cup.
It was a double. They've since been fruitless. They finished second in the 2014/15 season and 5th last season. This time, the Fabulous Boys are determined to reclaim their rightful place.
The playing body has been strengthened with 10 new players. The appointment of Croatian coach, Zdravko Logarusic, who will be assisted by Godwin Ablordey, reinforces Management's resolve to see Kotoko exceling.
Going by the trial matches – five of them, the discipline seen at Adako Jachie, the eagerness of the players to perform; the prediction of a fruitful season isn't wrong. Liberty Professionals are in trouble as they would be first to taste Porcupines' venom.
Kotoko have scored six goals in three trial matches without conceding. That gives hope. The team can score and defend at the same time. Liberty don't need a prophet to tell them that, they will be in for a tough duel in Kumasi this weekend. Kotoko's present form foretells a win and past records even vindicate the Porcupines' clamour for triumph.
Two seasons ago, Kotoko beat the Dansoman Boys 1-0 in Kumasi and recorded a 3-1 win against them at the same venue last season. The Porcupines had lost 0-1 to Aduana Stars on match day six to drop to an unprecedented 16th position on the league table. Their next match was at home to Liberty and they whipped them fairly.
In the second round, Liberty were humbled 2-0 by Kotoko in their backyard. That dominance must continue on Sunday. Coach Zdravko and his team dare not miss this chance. Liberty have on the quiet been recruiting players and characteristic of them, they will come with quality.
It's important for Kotoko to draw lessons from previous opening matches where they've had terrible starts – losing 0-2 against WAFA at Sogakope last season is a quick example. There must be no room for complacency. The team must make an impressive statement on Sunday as the 2016/17 season begins.

September 30, 1998
The following is being distributed at the request of the Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation:
NLHC announces decision to withdraw from residential land development
Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation (NLHC) has received approval from government to proceed with recommendations to remove itself from current land development activities in the province. This new approach will see the corporation either sell remaining developed residential lots directly through real estate agents or transfer these along with banked land to the municipalities with NLHC sharing in future land sales revenues on a 50/50 per cent partnering basis. The announcement was made today by Art Reid, minister responsible for housing.
"With respect to Southlands, the corporation will invest approximately $12.4 million, over the next 10 years, to finance construction of Southlands Boulevard and other required infrastructure that will open phases two through eight. This will allow for some 412 acres to be sold as block land for private sector development of over 2,000 residential building lots," Mr. Reid added. "The remaining 135 residential lots in phase one will continue to be sold directly through NLHC and real estate agents. The corporation will retain the right to reassess its role in the future residential development of Southlands over the next three years, based on market conditions."
In recent years, as the corporation requirement as a land developer has peaked, NLHC's approach to residential development has changed, and the corporation has moved more towards the sale of block land versus direct development of residential lots. This has allowed the private sector to play a more prominent role in the industry.
Overall, this approach is consistent with recommendations put forward in a brief by the St. John's Board of Trade and the Eastern Newfoundland Home Builders Association following the public consultation process. Their concerns and interests factored very highly into government's decision on this matter.
"This decision is a result of extensive consultations with a wide range of industry stakeholders. The implications of the strategy and the concerns of all interested parties have been carefully examined and considered," said Mr. Reid. "NLHC's continued involvement in land development could pose competition for the private sector, and government feels strongly that it should avoid entering into any such activities. However, I can assure everyone involved that NLHC will divest of its land holding assets in an orderly and financially prudent manner."
NLHC recognizes the implications "dumping" land on the open market in St. John's could cause and, therefore, will not rush this process. The procedures being put in place to facilitate this change in the corporation's approach to land development in Southlands are being phased in over time. Government will monitor the market and pursue solutions to any future problems that may arise because of this strategy. One concern being addressed is that of the small builders, who are dependent on NLHC for their supply of economically priced buildings lots. However, the corporation will stipulate that developers must offer 25 per cent of developed building lots available to individual purchasers or builders/contractors, on a first-come, first-served basis, at fair market value.
Commenting on the announcement, Dave Elliott, President of the Eastern Newfoundland Home Builders Association said: "We commend NLHC and government for their response to the recommendations put forward by the industry. We are quite pleased to see that government has developed a provision which ensures that the needs of individual homebuilders and small contractors will be addressed. This is also a very significant decision which means government will no longer be competing with the private sector, and consequently, opens an endless range of opportunities for the business community."
Southlands is located south and east of two interchanges on Pitts Memorial Drive at Ruby Line and Ruth Avenue. Upon its completion it will consist of 1,000 acres and can accommodate 4,300 individual dwellings units (houses and apartments). Expected to be developed over a 15-20 year period, Southlands will have an estimated population of about 16,500. To date approximately 87 residential lots have been sold in this subdivision.
Today's announcement marks a turning point in NLHC's history. This new approach will enable the corporation to refocus its efforts and commitment on its primary mandate which is the provision of affordable, quality housing for those in need throughout this province. An announcement regarding the divestiture of remaining industrial/commercial property is anticipated within the next week.

The cost to paint metal siding -- most commonly aluminum and galvanized steel -- will depend on a variety of factors. In some instances, a simple cleaning will suffice to prepare metal siding for painting. In worst cases, painting professionals will need to repair metal that is rusted, damaged or missing pieces due to climate conditions. In the case of severe damage, a professional will have to remove the old finish and paint to get to the original layer, which will add on to the final price. When you add the actual painting of the metal siding, you might be looking at a final bill between $400 (~250 sq. ft.) and $1,500 (~1,000 sq. ft.).
I am a project manager who hires contractors all around the country. When it was time to paint my house, I did what I always do and looked for 7 bids. I used Angie's list for references since I am new to the area and never had to hire a painting contractor. I chose Distinct Painting because during the bidding/interview process I was impressed with Kane's attention to detail, enthusiasm, and pride in his workmanship. After working with him on painting my house, I was not disappointed. We had never had to paint a house so we were not too sure how the colors would look or even what color to put in what location. Kane placed the colors on the house in locations we thought we wanted them and allowed us to look at them for a couple of days so that we could decide how we wanted the house painted. He worked with us on the color scheme and even added a nice accent strip of paint that really gave the house that special look. The quality of the work is incredible. My shed which was real worn, looks brand new! He took his time painting. He used 2 coats of paint and even took an extra day just to make sure all the touch up work was done to our satisfaction. I am very satisfied with the quality or Kane's work and the attention of detail he puts into his work. He is a great person to work with. I would recommend Kane for any painting job. I plan on using him for interior painting when we are ready.
A qualified exterior house painter can walk you through the process of getting your house ready for a new coat of paint, from scraping and sanding to patching and priming. A pro can also recommend the best exterior paint for the job, whether your siding is wood, fiber cement, stucco, vinyl, or even metal. When it comes to getting the work done, your painter will arrive with all the tools and equipment needed to get the job done quickly, correctly and safely.
If you want something done right and on time, we are your painting contractors. What makes us different from our competitors is our company promise to our customers. We get to know our customers and learn what is important to them. We start and finish on time, maintain a neat and clean work environment, provide a total commitment to all details, stand behind our work, pledge an assurance of high quality and guarantee 100% customer satisfaction. We deliver that promise every time to every customer. We are professional, prompt, friendly and honest residential and commercial Philadelphia painters in Delaware Valley.
We got our estimate in a timely manner. The price was very reasonable. Rain put our job off a few weeks but you can't change mother nature. When the team arrived the temperatures were in the 90…039;s. The team had to do a couple 1/2 days due to that but we assured them we were in no hurry. The final results were fabulous!! Our house is older but now looks so fresh and neat. I will recommend Color World to anyone who asks Thank you so much. more »
For interior jobs, make sure you've cleaned all of the awkward spots, including behind the toilet, and picked up any knickknacks that might get in the way (e.g., soap containers, loofahs, and kitchen organizers). Removing the switch plates and outlet covers from the walls also goes a long way toward speeding up painting time—and painters' time is (your) money.
Next, undercut the trim to create a gap (Photo 3). When you're done, scrape any dirt or gunk out of the gap with a putty knife and blow out the dust using a vacuum or air compressor. To avoid staining the concrete, run at least three layers of masking tape under the wood. Apply repellent to all bare wood (Photo 4) including the underside (Photo 5). Bend a putty knife in a vise to make a handy tool for reaching into tight areas. Remove the tape right after application.
When we paint your house, apartment complex or commercial property, we guarantee that we will meet or exceed painting industry standards. We use Dunn Edwards and Sherwin Williams paints, undercoats, additives and sundries in a complete array of paint colors carrying full manufacturer's warranties and spread rate limits. We are an EPA certified company.

A house painter is responsible for painting the interior or exterior walls of a home. As a house painter, you must take great care to ensure that you do not damage any existing furniture or flooring by placing protective covers over important items in the house. You may have repair duties as well, helping to fix small holes or blemishes prior to painting them with brushes or rollers. While experience is not always necessary, you should have a keen eye for detail and brush skills.
The best time of the year to paint your home is typically in late spring and early summer when it's warm outside and moisture is low. This can change based on your geographic location. For example, fall can be a good time to paint in California when the difference between high and low temperatures is low. Your painter will select the optimal time to start your exterior painting project.

As the dancers took their bows at the Sydney opening night of The Nutcracker, you could glimpse the streamers that some of them had hidden in their hands in readiness for the announcement of this year's Telstra Ballet Dancer Awards.
After the final bow, The Australian Ballet Artistic Director David McAllister and Telstra CEO Andrew Penn took to the stage to announce the names of the winners. As the six nominees stepped forward, joined by last year's winner Jade Wood, it was finally the moment which has now become an Australian ballet tradition at the end of the year.

Jill Ogai, a Soloist with TAB, looked as if she could hardly believe it when she named the 2019 Rising Star of the Telstra Ballet Dancer Awards – a cash prize worth $20,000 from Telstra, a Principal Partner of TAB for 35 years. Marcus Morelli, a Senior Artist, took out the 2019 Telstra People's Choice Award worth $5,000.
"Jill has had an exceptional year," said McAllister. "She has worked extremely hard and taken up every opportunity thrown her way with passion and determination. Jill is a powerful, expressive dancer who shines brightly on stage transitioning from classical to contemporary programs with ease. I'm excited for her future and I'm certain she will continue to be an inspiration to young dancers across the country and thanks to Telstra she has the support to propel her career even further."
"Marcus has taken on 2019 head first and never looked back. His determination and commitment to dance has seen him excel in multiple principal roles through the year and it was evident the audience always felt the same way about his talent as we do. His athletic, authentic and expansive performances are something special to behold and he has an extremely bright ballet career ahead of him," said McAllister.
Now in their 17th year, the Telstra Ballet Dancer Awards recognise the rising stars at TAB and are aimed at helping them reach their full potential. Eight previous winners have risen through the ranks to become Principal Artists, among them Benedicte Bemet who had just danced the role Clara.

Ogai was born in Sydney in 1993, and grew up in Bondi Beach. At the age of four, she and her twin brother begged their parents to let them start ballet classes after their tennis-coach father played them a film of Swan Lake. Ogai was accepted by The Australian Ballet School to study ballet full-time at the age of 14, and joined TAB in 2012. She was promoted to Soloist in 2018.
The nominees are judged throughout the year on their contributions both on and off the stage to the company. This year's judging panel consisted of McAllister, Libby Christie (Executive Director, TAB), Genelle Sharples (Media and Sponsorships Principal, Telstra), Carmel Mulhern (Group General Counsel, Telstra), Nadia Fairfax (Editor, Fairfax Journal) and Sophie Tedmanson (Executive Editor, Qantas Magazine).
The People's Choice Award is decided by the public through online and SMS voting. This year there were 50,000 votes – the biggest to date. Morelli also took home the Telstra People's Choice Award in 2015.
The other nominees in 2019 were Corps de Ballet Dancer Isobelle Dashwood, Senior Artist Cristiano Martino, Soloist Sharni Spencer, and Corps de Ballet dancer Yichuan Wang.


text: Woman Used iPhone to Save Herself While Car Was Sinking Apple Watch, Google Maps also played roles By Luke Roney, Newser Staff Posted Jan 3, 2019 5:47 PM CST 26 comments Stock image. (Getty Images) (Newser) – Early on New Year's Day, Amanda Antonio found herself in a desperate situation after careening off Interstate 4 in Tampa, Fla., when she was cut off by another vehicle. The 20-year-old was trapped in her upside-down car as it sank into cold, muddy water. "I panicked for a second and then I'm like 'OK, so what do I do' because obviously this isn't going to help me," she told FOX & Friends on Thursday as she sat with the men from the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office who rescued her. Antonio used her Apple watch to ping and locate her iPhone, which was underwater. At first, the phone didn't work. But after rubbing it on the seat of the car, she was able to get a call through to 911. "There's water getting the car and I can't get out. I'm freezing," she told the 911 operator, adding that the water was up to her chest. Soon, it was up to her neck. Meanwhile, per the Tampa Bay Times, a sheriff's helicopter and 13 vehicles were searching both sides of the interstate, looking for Antonio's sinking Scion. "I'm so scared. Please tell them to come faster," she told the 911 operator. "Please help me. My phone's dying, it's at 5%." Antonio used Google Maps to pinpoint her location near the Florida State Fairgrounds. She told the dispatcher that soon she'd have to hold her breath. Just in time, Deputy Ryan Cooper found the vehicle. Two officers from the sheriff's dive team arrived and pried the car door open, freeing Antonio. "I just want to thank all of you guys for helping me that night," Antonio told her rescuers during the FOX & Friends appearance. But they gave the credit to her: "Amanda absolutely saved her own life that night," Deputy Chris Sullivan said. (iPhone has lost some of its luster.)
