Fukushima, where to get updated info
-----------------------------------
I was watching, reading, searching for info nearly everyday at the begining of the crisis but lately the Western papers aren't communicating much about it. 

I still want to know how the situation is going on because I have some families living there and here I want to share a nice blog about the situation I am reading.

I like it because it is really written by a japanese in english and the style is close to my own opinion. For example the latest article explained that the level for Fukushima school is raised to 3.8microsievert/hr and considered as safe for children (8hours school dayX200days ~ 6 millisievert/year) by the Ministry. It is consider safe as 0.5mS/year in USA for the children, there it is a rough estimate as they will probably have other intake of radiation, let you make your own opinion. I keep 8hours exposure because everybody who had lived in Japan knows that inside/outside is nearly same in Japanese buildings.

I add another useful link. It is made by normal people and other NGO and updated for the radiation level in Japan
