   MAJOR LEAK IN NUCLEAR PLANT

   A nuclear research facility reactor in the city of Halden, Norway has released radiation from Uranium inside the plant, making the air 100 times radioactive than what goes for normal within the walls. The accident that is considered "serious" happened January 28th and why the news wasn't published earlier no one seems able to say. As is usually the case with accidents in nuclear facilities both owners and government are stressing that "no dangerous amount of radiation threatened the public".
