How the ME-P is Helping Out
By Dr. David Edward Marcinko, MBA CMP™
[Publisher and Editor-in-Chief]
Millions of Japanese are struggling in the cold; without electricity or heat. And, rolling blackouts have been implemented as the earth-quake and tsunami devastated country faces a crippled power grid.
And, of course, all medical professionals realize that there is no “safe threshold” for any amount of ionizing radiation.

Nuclear plant issues in Japan are the least of their worries
There has been an incredible amount of coverage, fear mongering, and “worst case scenario” predicting. The Chairman of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission risked offending one of America’s staunchest allies by recommending that all US citizens within 50 miles of the Fukushima Daiichi power plant evacuate.
http://atomicinsights.blogspot.com/2011/03/nuclear-plant-issues-in-japan-are-least.html
Yet – even with the worst that nature can throw, and without perfection in response efforts, and without any off site power for a week, there is still no indication that anyone outside the fence of the plant will be exposed to any radiation doses high enough to cause a negative health effect – even over the long term.
What do you think?

Japan Tsunami Designated a Qualified Disaster
On April 5, the IRS published Notice 2011-32; 2011-18 IRB 1 and designated the earthquake and tsunami region of Japan as a qualified disaster area. Under Sec. 139 the qualified disaster designation permits charitable organizations to make payments to individuals for reasonable and necessary personal, family, living or funeral expenses.
During the 9.0 earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011, a substantial portion of eastern Japan suffered great damage. There now have been 9,800 confirmed deaths and more than 17,500 individuals are missing. Approximately 245,000 individuals are sheltered in evacuation centers.
Many American charitable organizations have committed funds to support the relief effort. The disaster designation under Sec. 139 also permits private foundations of multinational corporations to assist victims in the area devastated by the earthquake and tsunami. Qualified recipients may exclude these payments from taxable income.
