Radioactive Iodine in Japanese Sea Water Reported at 127 Times Normal, Radioactive Cesium Levels 25 Times Normal

From Kyodo News: http://english.kyodonews.jp/

NEWS ADVISORY: Radioactive cesium 24.8 times higher detected in seawater near nuke plant

NEWS ADVISORY: Radioactive iodine 126.7 times higher detected in seawater near nuke plant

NEWS ADVISORY: too early to assess contaminated seawater's impact on fishery product: TEPCO

While the market races higher on news that reactors 5 and 6 have been shut down and contained, this disaster unfortunately remains far from resolved.
