Facts About Acute Radiation Syndrome

Margie Miklas / Sat Mar 12, 2011 / Yahoo News

The Fukushima nuclear plant exploded Friday north of Tokyo after the devastating tsunami and earthquake in that region. Fears of radiation poisoning fueled the government to try to prevent exposure by the distribution of iodine.

According the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, acute radiation syndrome (ARS), known also as radiation poisoning or radiation sickness, is a serious disease, which can occur any time the body is exposed to very high doses of ionizing radiation in a short time frame. The degree to which you may experience symptoms correlates directly to the amount of radiation absorbed by your body. Here are some facts on acute radiation syndrome.

* In order to develop acute radiation syndrome the radiation must penetrate the body to reach your internal organs. Radiation from X-rays and medical procedures such as CT scans are typically too low to cause this, although cancer treatment radiation may possibly be in high enough doses to create symptoms.

* To develop ARS, you must have been exposed to the radiation in a short amount of time, within minutes, and your whole body must have received the exposure.

* Symptoms begin within minutes to days after exposure and they include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. These can last for several minutes or several days and may be intermittent.

* After the initial symptoms wear off, you may feel like you have recovered and then you will get, sick again, this time more seriously, with symptoms of fever, fatigue, loss of appetite, vomiting and diarrhea. You may even develop seizure and coma. This stage can last much longer, up to several months.

* Damage to your skin can appear within a few hours after exposure and may last a few weeks to a few years, depending on the severity of the dose of radiation exposure. Symptoms include swelling and itching and a burn similar to severe sunburn. Hair loss may accompany these symptoms.

* Death can occur and the probabilities depend upon the amount of radiation received. If death occurs as a result of ARS, in most cases, it is within a few months of exposure, due to bone marrow destruction, infection and bleeding.

* Survivors of ARS may continue to deal with symptoms up to two years after exposure.

* Treatment consists of preventing further contamination, reducing symptoms, treating organs that have been damaged and controlling pain.

* Decontamination is a process that removes external contamination by radioactive particles. Removal of clothing and shoes accomplishes this by removing approximately 90 percent of contamination. Washing your skin will also aid in further removal of any radioactive particles.

Carl Kruger's Twofer: Corruption Scheme Plus "Secret Gay Lover!"
March 12, 2011 / Auto Straddle / Rachel K.

Carl Kruger is a Democratic senator who voted against marriage equality in 2009, and who is now accused of a widespread public corruption scheme, and also having a secret gay lover. Specifically, he is accused of taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes, and laundering it through the man that he is alleged to have lived with for years, Michael Turano, as well as using the money to buy everything from Bentleys to household items for Turano and his family. (Read the entire complaint here.) It's a bizarre piece of news: it combines the politically pertinent with the salacious in a mostly unprecedented way. Even the 'reputable' news organizations that would normally report only on the money laundering scheme and leave the rest to speculation have to talk about it; the relationship between Turano and Kruger has been well documented by the investigative team (although its sexual nature hasn't and maybe cannot be proven) and confirming it will in fact be key to Kruger's conviction. As Capital explains:
It was to accounts held by Turano that the money was directed, and in those accounts the money stayed, except to be spent on Bentleys and the like. (There's even a $15,000 light fixture Turano wanted to buy, according to the complaint, but Kruger put the kibosh on it.) Ironically, the state senator who opposed gay marriage is in a position where prosecutors must show that Turano materially benefitting from help Kruger gave to various hospital and healthcare organizations amounts to Kruger benefitting from them directly. And so, the "intimacy" part of the case is crucial.

If light-bulbs and travel snacks--the sorts of things the complaint identifies as purchases of Kruger's to benefit the Turano family--are not your idea of love-gifts, then consider that prosecutors only need to show that simply by being close to the Turanos, Kruger benefited from and could even direct the spending of money that came into the household.
It's a weird kind of milestone: where only fifty years ago, or possibly five or one or zero years ago, the accusation of being gay was like a conviction in and of itself. But now it's just one jigsaw piece of a larger puzzle, a cog in the machine of a man's life that is being laid bare for the American public. It's even possible that Kruger is denying the relationship not because he's committed to the closet for personal reasons, but simply to protect his legal interests: after all, he didn't have a wife or family or deeply homophobic religious affiliation, like so many closeted self-loathing bigwigs do. Would a man who was ashamed of being gay have lived (apparently fairly openly) with his partner, going so far as to give his own personal phone number for inquiries relating to his partner's car or job? (If you believe the statements put forth in the complaint, which seem thoroughly researched.)

And of course, there's the fact that he's voted against marriage equality -- something that the mainstream media seems to have avoided grappling with, except to note that "the phenomenon of hypocritical politicians who live gay lives in secret, but vote against gay issues in public, is not reserved for only one side of the aisle." Somehow it seems more complicated than that, though.

It has something to do with the fact that there are two kinds of lying happening at once here, two kinds of hurting the people that you vowed to help when you took public office. It's about the fact that this is different than a classic case of self-loathing; without the possibility of probably ever really knowing, of course, it seems plausible to guess that Kruger wasn't conflicted about his own relationship at all. He bought snacks for Turano's mother when she traveled; he barely spent time in his own home. Their relationship is said to have been an "open secret" in Mill Basin, and Kruger has a history of being accosted by gay activists who want his secret to come out. By all appearances, this looks like someone who voted against marriage equality on the Senate floor because he knew it was better for his career, and then went home to his long-term boyfriend every night. We don't even have a paradigm for that kind of duplicity and amorality yet. We've been on guard forever against those whose upbringings or religious convictions have led them to want to hurt us; we've learned to spot those people in positions of power whose own sense of inner torment about their sexual identity has them unleashing the damage they want to do to themselves on their own queer community. But someone who dispassionately denies basic rights to people who are (in one specific way) just like him, and then takes thousands of dollars of bribe money to buy his own boyfriend a Bentley? This is a new low, and hopefully now that he's been exposed we can never go there again.
