But some specialists say it could just reflect differences in reporting.<br /><br />The large government study is the first to find notable regional differences in pediatric cancer. Experts say it also provides important information to bolster smaller studies, confirming that cancer is rare in children, but also more common in older kids, especially among white boys.</p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/nuclear' rel='tag'>nuclear</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/health' rel='tag'>health</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/safety' rel='tag'>safety</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/study' rel='tag'>study</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/radiation' rel='tag'>radiation</a> </p><p><strong>Posted by:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet'>theenergynet</a></p> Wed, 04 Jun 2008 20:34:13 -0000 http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2008/05/20/2249925.htm?site=science/greatmomentsinscience&topic=latest <p>We may not all be nuclear scientists, but most of us are pretty sure about one piece of nuclear knowledge — we all reckon that &quot;radioactivity has a green glow&quot;.</p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/nuclear' rel='tag'>nuclear</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/energy' rel='tag'>energy</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/radiation' rel='tag'>radiation</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/history' rel='tag'>history</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/nuke.news' rel='tag'>nuke.news</a> </p><p><strong>Posted by:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet'>theenergynet</a></p> Fri, 23 May 2008 19:08:07 -0000 http://www.expatica.com/es/articles/news/Radioactive-leak-at-Asco-is-750-times-more-than-disclosed-.html <p><br />MADRID - The amount of radiation emitted by the Ascó nuclear power station in Tarragona during a leak in 2007 reached 176 becquerels, 750 times more that the plant's managers initially acknowledged, Spain's nuclear watchdog has disclosed in a new report.<br /><br />In responses to questions posed by Greenpeace, the Nuclear Security Council (CSN) said that initial readings at the plant had been based on an &quot;inadequate&quot; measurement model, hence the subsequent revision.</p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/nuclear' rel='tag'>nuclear</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/energy' rel='tag'>energy</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/accident' rel='tag'>accident</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/spain' rel='tag'>spain</a> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet/radiation' rel='tag'>radiation</a> </p><p><strong>Posted by:</strong> <a href='http://www.diigo.com/user/theenergynet'>theenergynet</a></p> Tue, 20 May 2008 09:00:31 -0000 http://environment.newscientist.com/channel/earth/dn13760-insects-left-disfigured-by-nuclear-radiation.html?DCMP=ILC-rhts&nsref=ts16_bar <p>No one wants to live too close to a source of artificial radiation, not even insects. Cornelia Hesse-Honegger has spent 20 years travelling around the world, mostly in Europe, capturing and studying over 16,000 insects, many living in the vicinity of nuclear power stations, or other artificial sources of radiation. Her conclusion, not surprisingly, is that exposure to radiation increases the chances of deformity.<br /><br />She made particularly detailed studies</p><p><strong>Tags:</strong> <a
