TEPCO re-explains Fukushima nuclear waste leak, cites human error

  On Thursday (15th), the Tokyo Electric Power Company of Japan provided further clarification on the cause of the nuclear waste water leakage at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, stating that it was due to human error on Wednesday (7th). Last Wednesday, about 5.5 tons of radioactive contaminated water leaked from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant's water purification system. According to Tokyo Electric Power Co. (TEPCO), the leak occurred on Thursday morning in the high-temperature incinerator building while the facility was cleaning and treating contaminated water from the reactor building with the "second cesium adsorption system" to reduce radiation levels in preparation for maintenance. The system is connected to the external wall's exhaust vent, through which the contaminated water leaked. According to TEPCO, two operators from collaborating companies failed to notice the open state of a valve and missed relevant reminder signs before starting t...

A model of Tyrannosaurus Rex is displayed outside Fukui Station in preparation for the opening of Shinkansen.


 A group of employees putting together a mechanical model of the king of the dinosaurs.




The prefecture of Fukui in Japan is famous for its abundant dinosaur fossils, earning it the nickname "Dinosaur Kingdom". Realistic dinosaur models can be found throughout the county. Recently, a Tyrannosaurus rex mechanical model appeared on Tuesday (30th) at the Dinosaur Plaza in front of the west exit of JR Fukui Station, in preparation for the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen line from Kanazawa to Tsuruga on March 16th. It is expected to be fully assembled by early March. Even in its prototype form, the model has already attracted numerous passersby to stop and admire and take photos.




The fearsome tyrannosaurus rex mechanical model was created by the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum. It measures 12 meters in length and produces a roaring sound when its neck moves, resembling a real and powerful dinosaur. The staff worked tirelessly on Monday (29th) night, using a crane to lift and assemble the dinosaur parts that were delivered. By Tuesday morning, the tyrannosaurus rex began to take shape.




Currently, there are three dragon mechanical models standing in this dinosaur square. It is believed that the completion of this tyrannosaurus rex will add a lively atmosphere to the square. According to the plan, in September, a "crocodylomorph" of the spinosauridae family will also be installed in the dinosaur square, with a shape resembling a crocodile as its name suggests.

Sharp Increase in Breeding Grounds of Aedes Mosquitoes Leads to Outbreak of Dengue Fever Cases

  According to reports from the Singaporean media on Thursday (15th), there have been over 2,600 cases of dengue fever recorded in the country so far this year, as of Wednesday (14th). The weekly cases have also remained high, with a total of 515 cases reported in the past week, more than double the total number reported in December last year. Additionally, there has been a significant increase in the number of mosquito breeding sites found in homes last month compared to the previous year. According to the National Environment Agency, the main breeding grounds for mosquitoes found in homes are in water buckets, flower pots, and vases. In the area of Wenli, a total of 174 breeding grounds were found, with 101 of them being inside homes. In addition, a construction site on Kena Street was ordered to stop work last September after breeding grounds were discovered, and more were found by authorities in November. As a result, the contracting company, Chang Cheng Engineering, was charge...

Korea's Han Accuses Kim Jong Un of Exploiting Grandfather's Image to Hasten Idol Project

  According to officials from South Korea's Ministry of Unification on Thursday (15th), North Korea has been actively promoting the idolization of current leader Kim Jong-un by utilizing the image of the late leader Kim Il-sung as "supreme commander during wartime", "father of the socialist family", and "ideological leader" in order to strengthen control over the system and unite internal forces. During the last year's Labor Party Conference, Kim Jong Un mentioned the "pacification of the entire territory of South Korea," which evokes memories of the "territorial integrity" mentioned in North Korea's government manifesto by Kim Il Sung on September 10, 1948. Officials from the Ministry of Unification analyzed that this move was intended to emphasize Kim Jong Un as the supreme commander who inherited Kim Il Sung's idea of "unification through armed communism." Furthermore, during the Central Research Discussion ...
