日本人要求拆除美国的慰安妇塑像，10万人向白宫请愿
居住在德克萨斯州的64岁美国男性向白宫请愿，要求拆除位于美国加利福尼亚州格伦代尔（Glendale）市公园的慰安妇塑像。
该塑像由韩裔人团体修建。已经有超过10万人参加该请愿。
请愿理由是【慰安妇塑像会助长对日本人的憎恶感】。
米慰安婦像撤去、ホワイトハウスに１０万人署名
【ロサンゼルス＝水野哲也】米カリフォルニア州グレンデールの公園に韓国系団体が建てたいわゆる従軍慰安婦を象徴する少女像について、テキサス州に住む米国人男性（６４）が、ホワイトハウスの請願受け付けを通じ、像の撤去を求める署名集めを行い、署名数が、受理に必要な１０万人を超えた。
請願は「像は日本人への憎悪を助長する」として撤去を求めており、ホワイトハウスは請願を受理して対応を検討するとみられる。

Unexplained plumes ofradioactive steam have been rising from Fukushima's Reactor Building 3. TEPCOhas confirmed the reports, adding that they were not clear on the details ofthe sudden change at the reactor because of "lethal radiation levels inthat building." Meanwhile some experts think that "the situationcould escalate rapidly out of control."
福岛核电站3号堆突然喷出未知核蒸汽。东电已确认了此事，但表示他们也不清楚到底发生了什么，因为“建筑内的辐射程度已经达到了致死标准”。一些专家们认为，福岛的情况“可能会迅速恶化，失去控制”。
Unexplained plumes ofradioactive steam have been rising from Fukushima's Reactor Building 3. TEPCOhas confirmed the reports, adding that they were not clear on the details ofthe sudden change at the reactor because of "lethal radiation levels inthat building."
Fukushima's Reactor Building3 exploded on 13th March 2011 as a result of a hydrogen buildup, breaching thebuilding's containment and emitting a huge plume of radiation. The reactoritself is in meltdown.
福岛核电站3号堆突然喷出未知核蒸汽。东电已确认了此事，但表示他们也不清楚到底发生了什么，因为“建筑内的辐射程度已经达到了致死标准”。
福岛3号堆在2011年3月13日就曾爆炸过一次，当时从建筑的烟道管内喷出了巨量的辐射烟气。核电站本身则在聚变中被烧熔了。
And now fresh plumesof steam have been seen coming out the structure. These have now been confirmedby TEPCO, the owner of the nuclear plant, from 19th December onwards. Thecompany believes the steam is coming from the fifth floor of the building.
现在这个反应堆又开始往外喷蒸汽了。核电站的所有者东电已确认了此事。东电公司认为，蒸汽应该是从建筑的第五楼冒出的。
However it does notknow the cause of the steam. Lethal levels of radiation and the physical damageto the structure have so far made entry and inspection impossible.
Summations fromexperts conclude that this may "be the beginning of a 'spent fuel poolcriticality (meltdown)' involving up to 89 tons of nuclear fuel burning up intothe atmosphere and heading to North America."
不过，蒸汽的成因却是无人知晓。由于核辐射程度已经达到了致人死命的水准，建筑结构也被严重破坏，进入核电站进行查看已经是不可能的事。
一些专家们认为，这是“废燃料池已达到融化的临界值”的征兆，一旦大祸酿成，89吨核燃料所化成的蒸汽将被喷到大气中，并飘向北美。
Educated guessessuggest that the steam is "coming from what’s left of the fifth floor ofthe mostly-destroyed building."
TEPCO has admittedthat "they do not know why this steam is being generated, butmatter-of-factly revealed today (December 28) the steam was first spotted onDecember 19 for a short period of time, then again on December 24 and again onDecember 25."
一些人根据这些迹象猜测，蒸汽来自“残破不堪的建筑的五楼”。
东电则坦承了此事，并表示“他们也不知道蒸汽是怎样产生的”“实际上，蒸汽在12月19日就冒过一阵子，后来在24日和25日又各喷了一次。”
The accord is that"pellets of radioactive fuel, ejected when the reactor exploded, went intothe spent fuel pool located above the reactor and have begun melting down soseriously they are boiling off the water in the spent fuel pool."
目前的一种解释是：“在反应堆爆炸时，核燃料的碎块四散开来，打进了反应堆上方的废燃料池里，随后开始剧烈的溶解，热量将池内的水变成了蒸汽。”
Should this be thecase "the situation could escalate rapidly out of control."
TRN is warning ofpreparatory measures that should be taken by those living on the West Coast ofAmerica because after the "releasing 89 tons of deadly radioactive fueldirectly into the air", it would be a matter or 2 to 3 days before thedeadly material would fry North America "by [the] levels of airborneradiation and ‘hot particles’ which could kill."
现在的形势“可能会迅速恶化，失去控制”。
TRN警告美国西海岸一带的居民，一旦这“89吨辐射剂量致死的核燃料被直接排放进大气里”，就要采取必要的初步措施，因为废气很有可能会在2到3天内就抵达北美。
