Call for translation assistance

ByRod Adams

I have a Google Alert set to inform me whenever there is a news article that includes the string PBMR – which is a unique string that means someone is talking about Pebble Bed Modular Reactors. For the last couple of days, I have been frustrated by the fact that all of the articles returned to me in that daily search have been written in a language that I cannot understand.

Here are the links. If you know a good translation service or can simply read the articles and send me a summary, I would be grateful.

装备制造业名词：PBMR – Chinese

España es una “isla” dentro del ámbito internacional energético – Spanish

Incidenti nucleari (alcuni poco noti) – Italian

José María Fidalgo y Cándido Méndez visitan las instalaciones de … – Spanish

I am itching to find out what the world is saying about the PBMR. If I find something out, I will share it with you all.

    ByRod Adams

    Sparton Resources is interested in coal ash, specifically ash from lignite burning coal plants located in areas of the globe where the lignite contains higher than normal levels of uranium.

    There was a useful article published in the Jun 10, 2007 issue of the St. Pete Times titled Who will staff the nuclear renaissance?.
