Revealed: secret evacuation plan for Tokyo after Fukushima

The Japanese government feared that millions of Tokyoites might have to be evacuated during the worst of last year's nuclear crisis, but kept the scenario secret to avoid panic in some of the world's most crowded urban areas, according to an internal report. The 15-page report, by the Japanese Atomic Energy Commission, was delivered to the then-Prime Minister, Naoto Kan, two weeks after the 11 March earthquake and tsunami triggered the crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant. It warned that if the situation spiralled out of control, compulsory or voluntary evacuation orders would have to be issued to residents living within 250 kilometres (155 miles) of the damaged facility, a radius that would have included the Tokyo metropolitan area that is home to around 30 million people. The directive would also have covered several large...

Japan Earthquake: Tokyo residents fear the big one

TOKYO, Japan — It is the seismic shift that Tokyoites dread most of all: a powerful earthquake that kills thousands and plunges Japan's political and financial nerve center into chaos in the space of minutes. A catastrophe that size has caused low-level anxiety for decades, but the massive earthquake and tsunami that struck the Tohoku region in Japan's northeast almost a year ago has brought the prospect of devastation in the capital into even sharper relief.

Haiti could be in a new earthquake cycle, scientists say

The magnitude-7.0 earthquake that shook Port-au-Prince, Haiti, two years ago nearly demolished the city and took both residents and geologists by surprise. Now, a team of scientists thinks they’ve identified a centuries-long pattern of earthquakes on the island of Hispaniola, which comprises both Haiti and the Dominican Republic, that could portend earthquakes to come. Although past seismic activity can’t be used to predict future quakes, the findings may help residents and those hoping to rebuild Port-au-Prince prepare for...

Bus-Size Asteroid to Give Earth Close Shave Friday

A small asteroid will make an extremely close pass by Earth Friday (Jan. 27), coming much nearer than the moon, but the space rock poses no danger of impacting our planet, NASA scientists say. The newfound asteroid 2012 BX34, which is about the size of a city bus, will pass within 36,750 miles (59,044 kilometers) of Earth at about 10:30 a.m. EST (1530 GMT) Friday, astronomers with NASA's Asteroid Watch program announced via Twitter. The space rock is about 36 feet (11 meters) wide, making it much too small to pose a threat to Earth...

Former IDF chief: Israel must prepare for possible attack on Iran

Former IDF chief Gabi Ashkenazi said Thursday that Israel must operate under the radar against Iran, but it should also prepare for a possible strike against the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities. During a lecture at the Institute for National Security Studies, Ashkenazi stressed that Israel's strategy on Iran must be a combination of several approaches. "Israel must do all it can under the radar and combine that with paralyzing sanctions, but at the same time keep a reliable military option on the table with the willingness to use it if necessary,"..

Revenge for EU Sanctions - Iran Set to Turn Off Oil Supply to Europe

It's a move which has tit-for-tat written all over it, but one which could nonetheless have a serious impact: The Iranian government wants to present a bill to parliament this weekend calling for an immediate halt to oil deliveries to Europe. The move, with most reports citing the Iranian news agency Mehr, has come about in response to the EU agreement to impose sanctions against Iran, which were announced earlier this week. The sanctions banned any new contracts for buying oil from Iran, but allowed existing deals to continue until July in...

CIA recalling operative from NYPD after internal probe

WASHINGTON – A CIA operative's unusual assignment inside the New York Police Department is being cut short after an internal investigation that criticized how the agency established its unprecedented collaboration with city police, The Associated Press has learned. In its investigation, the CIA's inspector general faulted the agency for sending an officer to New York after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and leaving him there too long with haphazard oversight, according to officials who have read or been briefed on the inquiry. They spoke...

Cocaine sent to U.N. headquarters

New York (CNN) -- More than 35 pounds of cocaine was discovered in at least one bag that turned up at the United Nations headquarters in New York, police said Thursday. The narcotics were uncovered on January 16 inside hollowed-out books that had been shipped from Mexico City in a bag made to look like a diplomatic pouch, according to New York police spokesman Paul Browne. "The actual pouch is blue and has a U.N. symbol, a lock and seal, and words like "Diplomatic Mail," Browne said. "This bag was white instead of blue and had no locked...

No Obama in court, no ‘birther' ruling

A hearing on whether President Obama should be removed from the November ballot in Georgia ended Thursday without a ruling -- and also without Obama. The president’s lawyer boycotted the proceeding -- triggered by citizenship challenges brought by a group of so-called “birthers” -- calling it “baseless, costly and unproductive.” Lawyers for the challengers said the president should be held in contempt for not complying with a subpoena. “This court has authority to take appropriate steps to punish him in contempt,” said state Rep. Mark...

For Greece, the Outlook Is Still Grim

LONDON — Even as Greece tries to convince creditors that its debt-reduction efforts are on track, gloomy new International Monetary Fund forecasts about its long-term economy are threatening to derail talks meant to secure the nation’s next big installment of bailout funds. The concerns, stemming from an analysis that the I.M.F. has been quietly sharing with European officials and Greece’s creditors in recent weeks, come at a crucial time for Athens. The new Greek government is in dual-track talks with private and public sector...

Bernanke has "finger on trigger" for new bond buys

He said the U.S. growth rate had downshifted and long-term expectations for unemployment mounted. This prospect heightens the chances that the Fed will return to buying securities in the months ahead to buttress a weak recovery and ward off deflationary risks. "It sounds like the finger is on the trigger," said Thomas Simons, a money market economist at Jefferies & Co. The Fed's announcement that it was unlikely to raise interest rates until at least late 2014, more than a year beyond its previous guidance, immediately pushed down Treasury...

Clinton ready to step off 'high wire' of politics

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Thursday that she's ready to step off "the high wire of American politics." Clinton, who's already made it clear that she won't be serving in a second Obama term if there is one, told State Department employees that she's ready to be out of the public eye."I think after 20 years -- and it will be 20 years -- of being on the high wire of American politics and all of the challenges that come with that, it would be probably a good idea to just find out how tired I am." Clinton finds it "a little odd for me to be totally out of an...

U.S. Rep. Barney Frank to get married

U.S. Rep. Barney Frank, the openly gay Newton Democrat who announced his retirement in November, plans to marry his longtime partner in a Massachusetts ceremony, Frank’s spokesman confirmed today. There is no timetable for when Frank, 71, and his partner Jim Ready plan to marry, said spokesman Harry Gural, nor did he say where a ceremony will take place other than to say it will be in the commonwealth. “We don’t have any more details at this time,” Gural said. Frank, who has held his district’s seat since 1981, dropped a political...

Matthews: People Who Believe God As The Creator Are "Troglodytes"

MSNBC's Chris Matthews insults those of faith and those who are skeptical of manmade global warming. Transcript below. Chris Matthews: In other words, there is no manmade influence on climate change? Is that your belief, Ron Christie? I didn't know that. Are you out there with the full-mooners on this one? Ron Christie, Republican strategist: Let me enlighten you on this one, Chris. I think global climate change is the biggest fraud that's been perpetrated in this country. The scientific evidence isn't there. This is something that Al Gore and his...

TV's Greg Kelly Raped Me, Made Me Pregnant, Accuser Told Investigators

Another human foot may have washed ashore in B.C.

VANCOUVER — Another human foot may have washed ashore in B.C., this time just off Vancouver. Police say someone walking near the Maritime Museum on English Bay on Thursday found a boot containing what appears to be human bones. The area was closed off and the BC Coroners Service was called in. Nine other feet have washed ashore in B.C. since 2007 -- the last in a fresh water lake in Port Moody last November -- and the coroner's service has managed to find identities for six of them. In previous cases, police and the...

McDonald’s drops use of ‘pink slime’ in U.S. meat

Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver can claim one more victory in his food revolution after McDonald’s stopped using what he called “pink slime” in its burgers. On Thursday, McDonald’s USA announced it was discontinuing the use of ammonia hydroxide in its beef. The Naked Chef had publicly denounced the use of the additive on his show, Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution. He questioned how the U.S. Food and Drug Administration could allow the compound to be used in foods. Ammonia hydroxide is made of water and ammonia and is used to kill bacteria...

TD Jakes Breaks Down the Trinity, Addresses Being Called a 'Heretic'

Bishop T.D. Jakes, pastor of The Potter's House megachurch in Dallas, Texas, was put on the spot during a theological roundtable Wednesday in regards to his beliefs about the Godhead and why, in some Christian circles, he is considered a "heretic." Jakes and of a handful of other male Christian leaders were invited to participate in this year's "The Elephant Room" roundtable, hosted and moderated by Pastors James MacDonald and Mark Driscoll. The Dallas pastor was hit with several questions about how his theological beliefs have developed...
