Investigations into the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Disaster (or Accident) began on 11 March 2011 when a series of equipment failures, core melt and down, and releases of radioactive materials occurred at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station

from the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake and tsunami on the same day.

In Japan, the 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake occurred at 14:46 on 11 March 2011.

At the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (Fukushima Daiichi NPS), operated by the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO),

the earthquake and tsunami caused the compound accident (hereinafter called Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Accident) consisting of Station BlackOut (SBO) incident,

Unit 1,

2,

3 severe core damage accidents, Unit 1, 2, 4 hydrogen explosion accidents,

radioactive releases and so on.

In response to the early events of this accident, Japanese government declared a nuclear emergency situation and established the Nuclear Emergency Response Headquarters (NERHQ), which instructed the Fukushima Prefectural Governor and relevant local governments to issue an evacuation order to citizens from the nearby Fukushima Daiichi NPS.

Significant amounts of radioactive material have also been released into ground and ocean waters. Measurements taken by the Japanese government 30–50 km from the plant showed caesium-137 levels high enough to cause concern, leading the government to ban the sale of food grown in the area.

A few of the plant's workers were severely injured or killed by the disaster conditions resulting from the earthquake. There were no immediate deaths due to direct radiation exposures, but at least six workers have exceeded lifetime legal limits for radiation and more than 300 have received significant radiation doses. Predicted future cancer deaths due to accumulated radiation exposures in the population living near Fukushima have ranged from none to 100 to a non-peer-reviewed "guesstimate" of 1,000. On 16 December 2011, Japanese authorities declared the plant to be stable, although it would take decades to decontaminate the surrounding areas and to decommission the plant altogether.

At the Fukushima Daiichi NPS, all the off-site power supply was lost due to the earthquake.

Later, the subsequent arrival of the tsunami caused flooding of many cooling seawater pumps, emergency diesel generators (EDGs), and power panels which were housed in low-lying rooms.

This resulted in the total loss of AC power at Unit1 through 5.

As nuclear reactor coolant systems stopped for a long time from cutting power, the reactors overheated due to the normal high radioactive decay heat produced in the first few days after nuclear reactor shutdown.

As the water boiled away in the reactors and the water levels in the fuel rod pools dropped, the reactor fuel rods began to overheat severely, and to melt down. In the hours and days that followed, Reactors 1, 2 and 3 experienced full meltdown.

In the intense heat and pressure of the melting reactors, a reaction between the nuclear fuel metal cladding and the remaining water surrounding them produced explosive hydrogen gas. As workers struggled to cool and shut down the reactors, several hydrogen-air chemical explosions occurred.

The National Diet of Japan Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission (NAIIC) was established by the National Diet of Japan as the first independent investigation commission on 8 December 2011.

On 5 July 2012, NAIIC released an executive summary report of The Fukushima Nuclear Accident. The panel is due to deliver its final report at the end of July.

The Investigation Committee on the Accident at the Fukushima Nuclear Power Stations of Tokyo Electric Power Company (ICANPS) was established by the Cabinet decision on 24 May 2011.

On 2 December 2011, ICANPS issued an interim report. On 23 July 2012, the government appointed the committee submitted its final report to the Japanese government.

On 20 June 2012, TEPCO released its final internal investigation report. In the report, TEPCO complained that top politicians, including the prime minister, interfered with recovery efforts during the initial stages of the disaster by making specific requests that were out of touch with what was actually taking place at the plant. TEPCO concluded that the direct cause of the accident was the tsunami which knocked out the reactors' cooling system. TEPCO also admitted that it was at fault in not being prepared for the situation, but said that its workers did the best they could "amid unprecedented circumstances."

Tepco admitted for the first time on October 12, 2012 that it had failed to take stronger measures to prevent disasters for fear of inviting lawsuits or protests against its nuclear plants.

As part of the government inquiry, the House of Representatives of Japan's special science committee directed TEPCO to submit to them its manuals and procedures for dealing with reactor accidents. TEPCO responded by submitting manuals with most of the text blotted out. In response, the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency ordered TEPCO to resubmit the manuals by 28 September 2011 without hiding any of the content. TEPCO replied that it would comply with the order.

On 24 October NISA published a large portion of Tokyo Electric Power Company's procedural manuals for nuclear accidents. These were the manuals that the operator of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant earlier did send to the Lower House with most of the contents blacked out, saying that this information should be kept secret to protect its intellectual property rights, and that disclosure would offer information to possible terrorists. NISA ordered TEPCO to send the manuals without any redaction, as the law orders. 200 pages were released from the accident procedural manuals used for Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. All their contents were published, only the names of individuals were left out.

The agency said, the decision to publish the manuals was taken, for transparency in the search what caused the nuclear accident in Fukushima and also to establish better safety measures for the future.

On 24 October 2011 the first meeting was held by a group of 6 nuclear energy specialists invited by NISA to discuss the lessons to be learned from the accidents in Fukushima.

On 28 February 2012, the Independent Investigation Commission on the Fukushima Nuclear Accident by the Rebuild Japan Initiative Foundation announced an investigation report.

Oregon's United States Senator Ron Wyden toured the plant and issued a statement that the situation was "worse than reported." He sent a letter to Japanese Ambassador Ichiro Fujisaki urging Japan to seek international help to relocate spent fuel rods stored in unsound structures and prevent leakage of dangerous nuclear material.

Granville County Schools is a PK–12 graded school district serving Granville County, North Carolina. Its 15 schools serve approximately 7,204 students as of the 2019- 2020 school year. The system was formed in 1963 from the merger of the former Granville County Schools and Oxford City schools. Granville county public schools now offers year round schools, and also the new Granville academy which offers different way of leaning.

The move towards merging the Granville County Schools system with the Oxford City Schools system was approved by the North Carolina General Assembly in 1961. The official merging of the systems occurred in July, 1963.

For the 2019- 2020 school year, Granville County Schools has a total population of about 7,204 students and 560.78 teachers on a (FTE) basis. This produced a student-teacher ratio of 13:1. This year, out of the student total, the gender ratio is 52% male to 48% female. The demographic group makeup is: 41% White, 34% Black, 20% Hispanic, 4% Two or more Races, .7% Asian, .3% American Indian. For the same school year, 60% of the students received free and reduced-cost lunches.

The primary governing body of Granville County Schools follows a council–manager government format with a seven-member Board of Education appointing a Superintendent to run the day-to-day operations of the system. The school system currently resides in the North Carolina State Board of Education's First District.

The seven members of the Board of Education are elected by district to staggered six-year terms, generally meeting on the first Monday of each month. The current members of the board are: Leonard E. Peace, Sr., District 4 (Chair); Brenda Dickerson-Daniel, District 2 (Vice-Chair); Toney W. Smith, District 1; B. Patrick Cox, District 3; Donnie Boyd, District 5; Catherine "Rose" Lyon, District 6; and David Richardson, District 7.

The superintendent of the system is Alisa McLean. She began in 2017.

Granville County Schools has 18 schools ranging from pre-kindergarten to twelfth grade. These are separated into seven high schools, one alternative school, four middle schools, and nine elementary schools.

According to the North Carolina High School Athletic Association, for the 2012–2013 school year:

The Granville County Schools system has one schools listed as Blue Ribbon Schools: C. G. Credle Elementary School (1989–90). It has also had one teacher recognized as a North Carolina Department of Public Instruction Teacher of the Year: Louis Gotlieb for 1990–91.

East Valley High School is a high school located at 5525 Vineland Avenue in the North Hollywood area of Los Angeles, California, United States.

EVHS, which opened to serve grades 9 and 10, is a part of the Los Angeles Unified School District. The school's name originates from the fact that the school is in the far eastern San Fernando Valley. Its incoming 9th graders come from Walter Reed Middle School, Sun Valley middle school, and Roy Romer middle school. East Valley High School hosts The Science Academy STEM Magnet on their property.

In the year 2008, Paul Del Rosario was the principal.

Carrie Allen served as principal for approximately five years.

After her retirement, she was replaced by Dr. Timothy Lino who assisted in an Interim Principal role with completion of the 2015-16 school year.

Dr. Lino began serving as the official school principal from July 2016 - November 2016.

Paul Del Rosario rejoined an assisted East Valley as a retired interim principal through December 2016.

Ms. Lourdes DeSantiago has been the official principal from January 2017 through the time of this update (FEB 2018)

The school colors are Champion Blue and black and the team mascot is the Falcons.

East Valley offers sports such as boys/girls volleyball, boys/girls basketball, boys/girls soccer, cross-country, swimming, football, boys baseball, and girls softball. They also have an award-winning drill team. Football is played in 8-man. Basketball is Division 5 for Los Angeles City Section.

The school houses four academies: Freshmen Academy, Sophomore Academy, Media and Communications Academy, and Business, Finance, Marketing Academy. All four academies utilize block scheduling where students take four 85 minute classes a day plus an advisory class. Students finish a year's study in sixteen to twenty weeks, thus allowing for enrollment in two additional courses per academic year. Currently the students rotate through the 4x4 schedule - where academic advancement and remediation can take place within the same academic school year.

East Valley opened for grades 9 and 10 on October 3, 2006. The school was originally going to open on September 6, 2006; the opening was delayed to October 3. The school serves grades 9-12. Marcy Hamm was the school's first principal. East Valley houses about 1,000 students daily. On June 13, 2007, the Class of 2007 was the first graduating class at East Valley.

= = = Lycanthropy (album) = = =

Lycanthropy is the first studio album by English-Irish singer-songwriter Patrick Wolf and was recorded over the eight years between 1994 and 2002. It was critically acclaimed at the time of its release, as was his next effort, "Wind in the Wires".

The album has more sampling and distortion than Wolf's subsequent albums. Also, the album features acoustic guitar on a number of the tracks, an instrument Patrick would practically abandon on his later albums in favour of the baritone ukulele. Although has now began playing guitar more with his live performances.

Some of the songs have a connection to wolves or werewolves, although not all are immediately apparent. A number of the songs have dark or "mature" undertones, such as the song "The Childcatcher", which tells the story of a boy targeted by a paedophile, and "Lycanthropy", which examines gender dysphoria through abstract lyrics.

The album was met with positive reviews. Kenyon Hopkin describes the debut as "relentlessly resourceful, never failing to reveal a new instrument." Dan Lett of "Pitchfork" praises the album, describing it as "folk-pop musings in lush blankets of violin, viola, harp and harpsichord, and tricks out the mix with aggressive electronic textures." Lett compliments Wolf's vocals and "A Boy Like Me" as a thoughtful pop songs "for the ubiquitous dissolute youth." Although Lett praises much of the album overall, he notes that the only complaint against the album is its lack of subtlety, "as it's possessed by a heady, pubescent intoxication that can result in some indiscriminate vocalizing." Nick Southall from "Stylus Magazine" offers the most critical evaluation of the album with tongue-in-cheek references to Wolf's canine inspiration, but describes the album in general as "Bizarre and whimsical and freakish and compelling in equal measure." A reviewer at Almost Cool Music reviews offers a similar interpretation of the album, citing it as "both literary and pretentious," but also describes it as one of the best debuts. "DIY" writer George Boorman called "Lycanthropy" an "arty album of folktronica".

= = = Lunarville 7 = = =

"Lunarville 7" is the 15th episode of "Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons", a British Supermarionation television series created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson and produced by their company Century 21 Productions. Written by Tony Barwick and directed by Robert Lynn, it was first broadcast on 15 December 1967 on ATV Midlands.

The plot of the episode sees Captain Scarlet, Captain Blue and Lieutenant Green investigate a lunar colony after the Lunar Controller unexpectedly declares the Moon a neutral power in humanity's war with the Mysterons. "Lunarville 7" is the first part of a three-episode story arc that continues in "Crater 101" and "Dangerous Rendezvous".

The episode was later re-edited for inclusion in the "Captain Scarlet" compilation film "Revenge of the Mysterons from Mars" (1981).

Broadcasting to Earth from Lunarville 7, the Lunar Controller declares the Moon an independent world and a neutral power in humanity's war with the Mysterons (voiced by Donald Gray). Colonel White (voiced by Donald Gray) sends Captain Scarlet, Captain Blue and Lieutenant Green (voiced by Francis Matthews, Ed Bishop and Cy Grant) to the colony to present the World President's written response to this surprise announcement. Scarlet, Blue and Green are also ordered to investigate the Humboldt Sea on the Moon's far side, where orbital surveillance indicates that a new, unauthorised colony is being built.

On arrival at Lunarville 7, the officers are met by the Controller and his assistant, Orson. They are also introduced to the colony's main computer, an artificial intelligence called "Speech Intelligence Decoder" (SID) that identifies humans through recognition discs. After the officers hand over the President's letter, Orson agrees to take them on a trip in a Moonmobile, a vehicle that exploits the Moon's low gravity to jump and glide over its surface. However, when Scarlet suggests a visit to the Humboldt Sea, Orson angrily refuses and returns them to Lunarville 7. While retiring for the night, the officers find that their accommodation has been bugged.

Rising early, Scarlet attempts to request a Moonmobile from SID but discovers that the Controller has re-programmed the computer to accept only his commands. Scarlet also learns that the Controller has declared a state of emergency and ordered the evacuation of Lunarville 7. Scarlet switches recognition discs with the sleeping Controller to trick SID into giving him, Blue and Green a Moonmobile. Travelling to the Humboldt Sea, the officers discover a Mysteron installation under construction in a crater numbered "101".

Returning to Lunarville 7, Scarlet, Blue and Green confront the Controller and Orson, who appear to be Mysteron reconstructions. Scarlet, still wearing the Controller's disc, instructs SID to prepare an Earth-bound shuttle for immediate departure. When SID rejects the Controller's order to lock down the colony, the Controller produces a handgun and repeatedly shoots SID, causing an explosion that kills him and Orson. Scarlet, Blue and Green blast off in the shuttle before further explosions destroy the whole colony.

The episode was filmed on Century 21 Studios' Stage 4.

In his speech at the beginning of the episode, the Lunar Controller states that the Moon is home to approximately 4,000 people. In Tony Barwick's original script, the character was then to have discussed the Moon's self-reliance in greater detail, declaring, for example: "We were all born on Earth, but I see a future where men will be born, spend their lives and die on the Moon." These lines were cut from the finished episode.

The electronic voice of SID was provided by supporting voice actor Martin King, who spoke his lines into a vocoder supplied by Standard Telecommunication Laboratories. The episode's closing titles credit STL for "electronic collaboration".

The miniature model of Lunarville 7 was built partly out of colanders and mixing bowls. Some elements of the puppet set design were recycled from Century 21's previous series, "Thunderbirds": the Moonmobile cockpit incorporated sections of the interior of "Thunderbird 4" and the Lunar Controller's desk was a modification of the Glenn Field controller's desk from the film "Thunderbirds Are Go" (1966). The Moon shuttle cockpit was a re-dress of the Martian Exploration Vehicle interior first seen in "Thunderbirds Are Go" and again in "The Mysterons". The Moonmobiles influenced the look of the SHADO Moonmobiles in the Andersons' live-action series "UFO".

The incidental music was performed by a four-member ensemble. It is mainly electronic in nature and features an electric guitar and accordion, vibraphone and Ondes Martenot, the last of which was played by series composer Barry Gray himself. It was recorded on 23 July 1967 in the same studio session as the music for "The Launching". "Lunarville 7" was the first episode of "Captain Scarlet" to be produced featuring the lyrical version of the series' ending theme music performed by The Spectrum, which was recorded on 26 July 1967.

Chris Drake and Graeme Bassett consider "Lunarville 7" to be a good episode of "Captain Scarlet". Paul Cornell, Martin Day and Keith Topping, authors of "The Doctor Who Discontinuity Guide", list this episode and its follow-up, "Crater 101", as influences on the 1969 "Doctor Who" serial "The Seeds of Death".

Noting the episode's incidental music, Mark Brend argues that "Lunarville 7" features "one of [Barry Gray's] most fully realised predominantly electronic compositions". He praises the music's "evocation of the cold, desolate expanses of the Moon", describing it as "impressive".

Andrew Pixley and Julie Rogers of "Starburst" magazine consider the "rather nasty karate blow" that Blue lands on Orson during the escape from Lunarville 7 to be one of the series' more violent moments. The British Board of Film Classification certifies the episode U, noting that it contains one "mild" instance of violence.

In a discussion of the presentation of Moon politics in science fiction, author Stephen Baxter points to this episode – in which the Lunar Controller repeatedly asserts the Moon's independence and neutrality – as an example of how "even juvenile portrayals of lunar colonies can hint at political complications."

= = = Yutaka Mizutani = = =

Mizutani was raised from the age of eight in Tokyo, Japan. He started acting at the age of twelve, when a neighbor introduced him to a children's acting school in the area. When he discovered that going to an acting school wasn't the same as meeting the people he admired on TV, he wanted to quit, but by that time he had been selected to play a small role in a 'Vampire', a television movie being filmed by Fuji Television. This role launched his reluctant career, and though he purposely took a number of years off work to try studying, his failing to get into university urged him to continue in the acting business.

It was after the age of 20 when his career as an actor finally took off. His first major drama was in 1974, called Kizu Darake no Tenshi (Battered Angel).

At the moment Mizutani stars in a regular TV Asahi detective drama called "Aibō" () with actors Yasufumi Terawaki (2000-2008), Mitsuhiro Oikawa (2009-2012) and Hiroki Narimiya (2012-).

In addition to acting, his agency, "TRI-SUM", also encouraged him to put out music albums starting from 1977, all of which sold very well. His last album was released in 2009 (Time Traveler).

Mizutani is currently under the avex IO label of the Avex Group.

Mizutani was once married to an American actress by the name of Miki MacKenzie in 1982. They divorced in 1986. He is now married to ex-pop idol Ran Ito from the 1970s singing group Candies. He has one daughter.
