the study of hiroshima was an overwhelming experience. the first study was in the mid-50s and this study of sheer osheepa was in 1962 when my life and i lived there for six months and i interviewed survivors. it's one thing to be told in detail about things that happened in hiroshima it's another to sit down with survivors and spend hours hearing of visceral sense of what they went through in connection with the cruelest weapon ever devised and that study in hiroshima absolutely altered my view of the world. i have since and still see the world through a lens or prism of hiroshima. and, of course, it led to concerns about nuclear weapons and more broadly the psychology of what i call nuclearism, the embrace of the weapons, almost as deities at times as something we're dependent on, something that keeps the world going as absolute entities we must define ourselves with. also it took me to the psychology of survivors and above all the overall need of survivors to find meaning in their encounters if they are to have meaning in their lives. m

. >> reporter: in hiroshima, you can see koi everywhere. >> reporter: hiroshima prefecture is the second-largestcer of koi in japan. autumn is the big season for taking the fish from their breeding ponds and shipping them to dealers. many people come to this dealer to check out the latest arrivals. >> translator: each fish has a different color and pattern. they're like living gems. >> reporter: recently, more customers are arriving from other countries. >> so beautiful. wonderful color and the size, i never see. >> japanese koi are number one in the world. >> reporter: koi are becoming popular in many other countries. about 60% of all the koi raised in japan are exported. >> translator: in the last ten years, our sales to other countries have been growing. that's really good news for us. >> reporter: although more people are coming from abroad, fewer japanese people are buying koi these days. they don't have the garden space to keep them. recently, koi breeders have come up with a way for people to enjoy watching the fish indoors. miniature koi kept in fish tanks. these are young koi. the size

twenty nine point six times the amount of fuel combination caused by the nuclear bomb dropped on hiroshima i do a lot of assuming the source material to be uranium we think the total amount of leakage is about twenty times the contamination caused by that russian a bomb there were also reports that the ground under the crippled nuclear facility is beginning to crack as the nuclear core is melting down into it and deadly radioactive steam might be now spewing from those cracks further ampara efforts to contain the crisis as one unnamed fukushima worker emailed to a friend earlier this month a lot of the cracks came up in the ground massive steam is coming up from there it's too small can't see a thing it seems like a nuclear reaction is happening underground now we are a back to back you waiting watch out for the direction of the wind. so what exactly is going on there and why the media blackout on this increasingly severe nuclear disaster here offer some answers as paul gunter director of the rac reactor oversight project nuclear paul welcome back thanks again for having us tom. appreciate

it's an 800-mile long fault that released the energy of 400 hiroshima type bombs. this and the seven other main faults, hayward, concord, calav era s, greenville, rogers cream, san gregorio and san and era s thrust generate a lot of quakes. there are many other faults, all lying in wait, all presenting a hazard to every corner of the bay area. the question is are we prepared? many if not all of the bay area folks we've met throughout the year say they are not prepared for the big quake or any quake. >> like an ostrich. i just as soon as not think about it but i know i should, because it's coming. >> mentally, no. i've had earthquakes in the past. >> no i'm not prepared. >> i don't have an earthquake kit at home i should though. >> reporter: the study just released from columbia university center found most americans did not have an emergency kit. even at time when the government is cutting back, 1/3 said it expects a mike expects a -- a jacket would take about an hour. it's home to hundreds and thousands of people and what people believe be the next quake. presiden

even by august 1945 when the bombs were dropped on hiroshima it was still essentially a lab project, not a big industrial projects of the kind the manhattan project was. the manhattan project employed 120,000 people at its peak during the war. it is two weeks after hiroshima, stalin signed the decree creating a special committee on the atomic bomb which turns it into a crash program. there was certainly in the 1990's a dispute between the physics community and the intelligence community in russia, where the kgb people were saying this is not useful, it was we who built the bomb. soviet bomb is a copy of the bomb dropped on nagasaki, the first plutonium bomb. i do think that john paul ii played an absolutely critical role and poland played a critical role in the ending of the soviet union. i recently read the politburo minutes from a meeting in december 1981, a few days before martial law was imposed in poland by the general. there's a very interesting discussion, and drop off and members of the politburo, and they say we are not sure that he's going to do what we want them to do. and

when a woman was dying of leukemia after the bomb dropped in hiroshima, she created the crane as a symbol of peace. the symbol has resonated with so many people. we've got a lot of people to come in and write wishes and put them on the crane. there are over 7000 cranes on the tree, 13,000 stars to add some more sparkle and help with the wishes up to the heavens. so, we are really grateful we have the ability to create this gift for the city of san francisco. we would like to thank everybody who helped us. there are some many people. a lot of kids in the city of san francisco. that is pretty much it. thank you. thank you for coming. millie. [applause] it would not be a san francisco event without a blessing from the sisters of perpetual indulgence. >> good evening, everyone. i am here to bless you. will ask for everyone's attention for just a minute. if you please, would you close your eyes, bring your hand close to your heart, and take a deep breath. friends, family, to date -- today we're gathered beneath a symbol of energy, life, and hope for the world. you have decorated it with love a

the 15 ships of his squad, only his and two others were still in action when the atom bomb fell on hiroshimathe first time the crew felt they would survive the war. >> we would just sit there and cry like babies, and i mean, we balled. >> reporter: the ship, with tom mahoney still aboard, escorted the battleship "missouri" into tokyo bay for the surrender ceremony. there are only a few more diary entries after that. december 14, 1947. >> right. december 14, 1945. >> right. >> reporter: the war is over. >> my mind is finally settled. >> reporter: what does that say? >> arrived in the states. >> reporter: he married claire right after the war and they've been affect for 65 years, but every december, the nightmares come back. >> if you saw what i saw at pearl harbor, your friends mutilated and nothing but ashes, it stays with you. >> reporter: pearl harbor will always stay in the history we begin with breaking news. cbs five has learned that the oakland city clerk has given the green light for a recall targeting mayor jean >>> good evening. we begin with breaking news. cbs 5 has learned the oak

they were on their way to hiroshima. they have really nice cars.hat's over a million dollars worth of damage. i hope they have good insurance. >> painful to watch. >>> weatherwise we are looking good. a cold start, but looks like a good week. kick it over to christy and find out what is going on. >> temperatures will be consistent throughout the week in that respect. close to seasonal. we enjoyed the nice temperatures in the 70s the end of last week, but we'll see more of what we should be seeing this time of year as we make our way later on into the week. as you're stepping outside this morning, clear for the most part. a little bit chilly if at the bay. we are seeing breezy conditions in the inland spots, gusts up to 30 miles per hour reported at travis air force base. temperatures in the 30s and 40s for the most part. gotten a few low 50 degree readings in spots warmer this morning. but this afternoon, the difference between temperatures will definitely narrower. in the low 60s throughout most of the bay. a lot of sunshine across the board as yo

have to examine what they did in nigeria this is also true for the americans and what they did in hiroshima and nagasaki where the japanese were they did in china. for the russians on every nation has to investigate its crimes in the past but establishing historical truth is the work of historians it is not something that should be done and established by law with respect freedom of speech and so on this is all political and trying to get the vote but segment of population there are very few turkey's focus in france many more armenian voters and the law and is not going to improve the lot of armenians living today although historians have recognized there was a genocide there is no need for a law for this so we have seen protests on the streets of paris from the turkish community in a year of on arrest across the arab world do you think the situation could trigger an even larger backlash in frats. well not on this particular issue there are other issues like you know stereotype programs economic issues unsolved and the turkish community doesn't have much political clout so it's very differe

love to see them you know pay us back for that or japan i mean we did we ended the war for them in hiroshima so if they could pay us back for that to reimbursement mr kay would you support any reimbursements of those type. of. reimbursement for pizza but i think that we need to do that now for bad foreign policy i can't comment on it myself because i have no. idea what i'm talking about with form san francisco should be part of the axis of evil i think it should be there are too many gay people there however given what i saw at the drag race i'm going to keep my mouth shut because she does look like somebody. i'm afraid that's all the time we have for that question now i want to move on to mr cain you were a guest on the sunday morning talk show face the nation of bob schieffer the other morning and the topic of discussion was this controversial ad that you put out that included your campaign manager mark block smoking a cigarette and so here mr schieffer decided to question you and what message you think that sends let's take a listen. don't know if since this signal that it's cool to slow

fallujah area, and it turns out that the level of radiation in that area is actually higher than hiroshima. this young man after he got out has been devoting his life to trying to compensate. this was a scientific article that just appeared in the study hair samples of people that were there and the hair samples have extremely high evidence of radiation and it again has the usual affects you describe, and unless we face up to these things it's going to continue. there is no barrier except internally to the united states. these are two examples and you can add others. the effect heavy metals and completed uranium and others has plenty of the effects on american veterans but of course there's always the major legal effect on the victim's and as fred said this can go on indefinitely even when the war is technically over and even more so when we carry out similar operations more so as we are doing right now. >> thank you. i'd just like to say a couple things and open up to questions and that is like the when you brought it now because people, someone asked me why you talk about something that

are working together to protect the one percent in the foreign policy since we dropped bombs on hiroshima nagasaki hasn't changed under a republican or a democrat healthcare the we want health care for all the democrats want to have access to health care for all which is not a buzzword for i.e. taking wall street and insurance companies republicans and tea party want to give it one of how the back and you know complete works of i read that shotgun instead of a doctor the occupy movement in my opinion stands for something that is revolutionary outside what either party can deliver to us so the demands we're placing on the system are not reform demands the revolutionary guards. are dennis i want to thank you for joining us i guess we're going to have to wait and see if they can actually you know take those demands or take the momentum of the movement and transform it into some kind of action but you know if i may make just one point two it seems interesting because right now they've been saying that the democratic national convention isn't going to be until next september there aren't in ch

that fleet of luxury cars was driving from kyushu to hiroshima and the crash happened on the expresswayetween the two islands. this is what the scene looked like on sunday morning. police say the cause was a ferrari which was a lead car. witnesses say they saw it going more than 150 kilometers an hour and lost control on the wet road and smashed into a center divider. the cars behind it could not top in time and piled into the ferrari one after the other. in total, eight ferrari, three mercedes, a lamborghini, wyndham and prius were involved. ten were taken to the hospital, but luckily no one was seriously hurt. insurers for those 14 cars are probably shaking their head. one auto analyst in tokyo told me the price come comes to about this, $3 million and makes it one of the world's most expensive car crashers on record. >> the owners might be in the market for some rent aal vehicl. how is the import market doing? >> it seems to be doing pretty well. one auto analyst at clsa at tokyo told me sales of imported brands were up more than 30% last month and these are dominated by the luxury c

the level of radiation, persistent radiation in that area is actually higher than a russian mob -- hiroshima. this young man after he got out has been devoting his life to trying to compensate for those horrors. this was a scientific article that just appeared, a study, hair samples of people there, and the hair samples have extremely high level evidence of radiation poisoning. and it again has the usual a facts at the same time. permanent. unless we face up to these things is going to continue. there's no barrier to it except internally to the united states. nobody else can do anything about it. these are two examples, and you can add others. and american veterans suffer from it, too. also the effects of heavy metals, and probably depleted uranium, others that has plenty effect on american veterans, but, of course, as always the major lethal effects are on the victims. and as fred said, this can go on indefinitely. even win the war is technically over, and even more so when we carry out similar operations elsewhere, as we are doing right now. >> thank you, noam. i would just like is a coupl

little boy was the bomb they dropped on hiroshima. that was a uranium bomb.the one they dropped on nagasaki, that one was called fat man, and it was plutonium. it was plutonium from hanford. hanford very quickly grew to become one of the largest nuclear facilities in the world. it had nine reactors. it employed tens of thousands of people. and it created plutonium for nuclear bombs throughout the cold war. in 1988 the government shut down hanford. the department of energy switched from the nukes building business to the nukes cleaning up business. there are billions of gallons of waste at hanford. and cleaning it up has not gone all that well. as the "seattle times" put it earlier this year, some of the hottest radioactive waste from hanford was funneled into concrete and carbon-steel tanks that today are decades past their projected life span. some have spontaneously heated up or burped explosive gases. 67 are suspected to have leaked. at least a million gallons of radioactive goo has spilled into the ground and is working its way to the columbia river." yea
