Price: $.99 Score: 10/10 By M. Schusterman
Are you a word search puzzle fanatic? For a buck, Word Absurd provides you with hours of entertainment and 100 puzzles with fun, crazy themes.
Designed by Trephination Proved Worthless LLC, Word Absurd has five categories of word search puzzles – culture, entertainment, leisure, science and sports – each of which has several subcategories. The words and titles are fun, such as "Non Stop Barf" in the travel subcategory of leisure, which includes words like "arrest," "condoms," "crabs," "Daytona" and "thong."
When you first open the app, you've got a menu with one puzzle. Tap the dice at the top to get a new random puzzle, or tap the "+" to choose one from the categories. You can add and delete as many puzzles as you want without finishing one, and when you do complete a puzzle, you can delete it and play it again later.
As far as gameplay goes, it's super easy to navigate. Swipe your finger across a word and watch it appear in a box at the top to make sure you've touched the right letters. If you find a word, it's highlighted in green. If not, it flashes red then goes back to normal. You can exit a puzzle to play another, then come back and your words will still be saved. Tap "Words" in the top right to see a list of the words you're searching for, each of which is checked off as you find them. And if you're a big cheater (kidding, no judgement here), tap "Solutions" to see the completed puzzle.
The design is simple and clean, and the puzzles are really fun. For this price, Word Absurd is really one of those apps that makes me realize how great apps can be. Spend less than you would on a pocket word search puzzle book, and you've got one hundred puzzles handy that won't leave those smeary eraser markings if you mess up or want to play again. If you're into word search puzzles, definitely throw down a dollar for this one.
Word Absurd requires iPhone OS 3.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. A small expedite fee was paid by the developer to speed up the publication of this review.

Eeek, self commenting. However, Cosmic Connie has the PERFECT synopsis of what I was really trying to say <"href=http://cosmicconnie.blogspot.com/2007/03/chopra-secret-and-unenchanted-world.html">about New Age thinking.
Dammit, she's good!
I don't quite hold the grudge against Deepak she has. I've seen him speak a few times and read some of his work. When distilled, it's pretty good. I am still not happy with the fast and loose science.
Nonetheless, he took a VERY principled stand on Bill Maher (whom I do revile) last night.

our stork was lost, but we found him!!!!…
infertility + 4 rounds of artificial insemination + in-vitro fertilization FINALLY = TWIN BOYS!!!!
It still gets to me, and probably always will
Published by Kerry | Filed under Uncategorized
Nothing like jumping back into the blogging world with a nice, heated, gosh-I-wish-I-could-cuss-but-my-parents-put-my-blog-link-on-their-Christmas-letter conversation about the infertility world. It was sparked by a Facebook post by one of my friend's Facebook friends (got that?). Said friend has adorable 12 month old spontaneous triplet girls, and we met through the NICU support group that Jeff and I started at Swedish Medical Center here in Denver. She posted a cute link to a blog post where she talks about going to the park with her girls, and meeting another set of triplets (is it still a "set" if it's a trio?). And the comment that got me all fired up was one of her friends asking if she knew if those other triplets were a product of fertility treatments or if they were natural.
I hate loathe despise abhor when people refer to spontaneous twins/triplets/quads as "natural", and I know I'm not alone here. It's super annoying. And uneducated. And honestly, it's a kick in the face when you worked your ass off to get the child(ren) you have. Do you ever hear anyone talking about whether or not a singleton is "natural"? Nope. At least I never do. Yet there are tens of thousands of singletons born each year as a result of fertility treatments. I'm guessing that those nosy people who feel it necessary to ask if Max and Wes are "natural" twins just think that (a) it's okay to ask someone about their sex life (which is basically what it is- when is the last time you asked a random parent of one if they had sex to get their little boy or girl?), (b) are just really intrigued by the whole multiples thing, or (c) want to jump down my/our throat about how it's going against "God's plan" to do something so drastic to become a parent.
Alternately, I'm sure it's super duper annoying for my friend to be asked time and time again if her girls are the product of fertility treatments. I mean seriously – whose freaking business is that?!?! I will admit that since becoming a parent of twins, I often find myself wondering if other sets of twins or triplets were conceived via fertility treatments, or if their parents just got really lucky. But I think that's normal, right? Either way, I obviously have no problem talking about how our boys were conceived. I'm not ashamed of it, I'm certainly proud, and so very thankful that the science exists. I'm actually going to be featured talking about our infertility journey, and about infertility in general on a podcast this Wednesday (my first ever!) on a great "Mom" blog, (over)thinkingmom, so look for the podcast, and subsequent podpost, later this week.
Just like I will never forget what we went through with the early delivery of our boys, and everything that happened afterwards with their NICU stay, my PPD/PTSD, and our marriage issues, I don't think I will ever forget the pain and heartache and sadness we felt leading up to that point. Infertility is a bitch. A dirty little bitch (sorry Mom). And shame on people who automatically assume that we went against nature or "God's plan", or whatever, just because we were "selfish" and we did something that couples decide to do every single day – have their own biological baby (or babies).
Oh, and one day I *will* catch up with December, January, and February (including Christmas, new niece, and 2nd birthday photos!) posts…just not today.

Foles remains Eagles starter with Vick still hurt
PHILADELPHIA -- Even after quarterback Nick Foles set or tied some significant passing records Sunday, Philadelphia Eagles coach Chip Kelly refuses to speculate who will be the starter after injured Michael Vick is ready to play.
Kelly is off the hook for this Sunday, when the Eagles play the Green Bay Packers, because Vick apparently is not ready for action.
A couple of weeks ago, it appeared that all Foles needed to do to wrestle the starting job away from Vick was have a good game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Then Foles responded with one of the worst games of his career, completing only 11 of 29 passes.
After Vick re-injured his hamstring last week, Foles got a second chance Sunday and responded with one of the best games by an Eagles quarterback in franchise history. He threw for 406 yards and had seven touchdown passes, tying several others for the NFL record for touchdown passes in a game. He completed 22 of 29 passes.
He was a perfect 7-for-7 in the red zone as the Eagles converted all four of their red-zone opportunities into touchdowns, and was 6-for-8 on third down.
Can you bench a guy who throws seven touchdown passes? Stay tuned.
Vick probably still is a couple of weeks away from being able to play, which means Foles will start Sunday's game against the Packers.
All Kelly would say Monday was that Vick won't be ready to practice Tuesday and that Foles would be taking the first-team reps.
"They (the training staff) tell me when he can go, when he can't go," he said. "I can cross my fingers. I can be hopeful. But when they tell me he can go, that's when he goes."

Skins Down Bears
Todd Collins kept waiting for another chance to play in the NFL. And waiting ... and waiting ... and waiting.
Forget about the five years without throwing for a touchdown. How about the three years without so much as attempting a pass of any sort?
Collins finally was called upon Thursday night by the weary Washington Redskins, and the perennial understudy performed brilliantly. Replacing injured starter Jason Campbell, Collins tossed two TDs to lead Washington over the fading Chicago Bears 24-16, ending the Redskins' four-game losing streak.
Making it even more special for Collins and the rest of the Redskins was the context of this win, coming as it did 1 1/2 weeks after the shooting death of safety Sean Taylor, and only three days after his burial.
``We've been through a lot. We really didn't have any practice time this week, dealing with the death of a teammate and a funeral,'' said Collins, 15-for-20 for 224 yards and his first two TD throws since 2002, when he played for Kansas City.
Said Redskins coach Joe Gibbs: ``It seems like it's been forever since we won a game. This team's overcome so much. ... It's been an emotional roller coaster for us.''
While the Redskins (6-7) consider themselves very much in the playoff chase in the so-so NFC, the Bears (5-8) were ready to concede they've followed up a trip to the Super Bowl with a dud of a season.
``It's pretty much over now,'' defensive end Alex Brown said.
Campbell departed in the second quarter with a dislocated left kneecap a few plays after hurting his throwing elbow, and Chicago quarterback Rex Grossman never returned from a left knee injury on his second drive.
Campbell will have an MRI exam Friday, and the Redskins said they would wait for those results before offering any prognosis.
Asked whether Grossman will play again this season, coach Lovie Smith said, ``Don't know enough about it. You know, it didn't look good.''
Grossman's replacement, Brian Griese, threw interceptions on consecutive passes in the second quarter, both picked off by Shawn Springs. The cornerback returned the first 53 yards, setting up Collins' 21-yard touchdown pass to another backup, tight end Todd Yoder, to put Washington ahead 7-0.
``I don't know that I've ever had a better performance coming off the bench. Ever,'' Gibbs said.
Griese was 21-for-45 for 295 yards and one TD, but also raised his interception total to 12 in seven appearances this season.
Both teams had a short turnaround from games Sunday, but the Redskins' preparation was even more limited. The entire organization traveled to Florida for the funeral of Taylor, who died after being shot last week.
Coincidentally, tickets for this game, printed months ago, featured a picture of Taylor.
``We got closure on Monday, and that's one of the things that helped us,'' defensive end Phillip Daniels said. ``To get closure and move forward, that was big for us, for this team.''
One sign of moving forward: The makeshift memorial to Taylor, set up on a patch of grass outside the stadium where his number 21 was painted, is gone. Fans dropped off flowers, candles, teddy bears, homemade signs and other tokens before Sunday's game, but nothing remained in that spot Thursday, other than some piles of snow.
The temperature was 26 degrees at kickoff, and perhaps a combination of the cold and the lack of regular rest contributed to all of the injuries. Among them: Daniels (sprained knee), running back Clinton Portis (stomach illness and bruised hand), right guard Randy Thomas (elbow) and cornerback Fred Smoot (cramps) of Washington, and defensive tackle Antonio Garay (ankle) of Chicago.
Also, Redskins tight end Chris Cooley limped off to the locker room with a bruised shin but was able to return. Portis made it back, too, but was limited to 36 yards rushing on 17 carries.
There were plenty of blunders on both sides: turnovers, missed field-goal attempts, penalties. Lots of penalties, 10 in the third quarter alone.
The trouble for Campbell began when he was hit on his throwing arm by Brandon McGowan at the end of a scramble. Campbell left for one play, allowing Collins to record his first NFL completion in three years, a 5-yarder to Reche Caldwell.
Campbell returned on Washington's next possession, but lasted three plays before hurting his knee and being driven off the field on a cart. Then, right before halftime, Springs' interception set up Collins-to-Yoder - hardly a combination the Redskins would have imagined.
After all, Yoder hadn't caught a TD this season or any pass at all over the previous five games. And the 36-year-old Collins? He had a grand total of one touchdown toss over the past decade.
``I've been preparing ... for literally hundreds of games,'' Collins said. ``This was really the first time I was able to go in and get to play in a situation that really mattered.''
Notes: Bears DL Tommie Harris said he was bumped by a fan who ran onto the field. ``I didn't know whether to beat him up,'' Harris said. ... Griese's 17-yard TD pass to Bernard Berrian in the third quarter ended Washington's streak of nine quarters without allowing a touchdown.

Braids have been worn by black women and men since the beginning of forever. Nothing about braids and cornrolls are new. But when a white women is seen wearing braids in 2016 in for an editorial shoot or Kim Kardashian starts rocking the straight backs, the world is all of a sudden in awe, completely overlooking the fact that braids have been around. Even famous black men and women wore braids while in the limelight, i.e Beyonce, Gabrielle Union, Queen Latifah, Omarion, really the list could go on and on because as it is stated above, black people have been doing this since forever.
Leave it the young Hollywood starlet, Zendaya, to keep it real and give an educated response to what "boxer braids" aka cornrows really are, cultural appropriation.
In a recent interview Zendaya was asked about how she felt about the new boxer braid trend and her is what she had to say:
"Well, first of all, braids are not new. Black women have been wearing braids for a very long time, and that's another part of the frustration… Another problem is it became new and fresh and fun, because it was on someone else other than a black woman. I don't know if there is an appropriate way—that's not something I can answer. My girl Amandla [Stenberg]… wished society loved black people as much as they love black culture. That's the truth. The credit gets taken away from us when we make certain statements or when we do certain things. That is the frustration."
When asked how the media could do a better job at talking about cultural appropriation, she said:
"If something feels personal to your culture or to your background, then you take that personally and you feel affected by it. You can't tell someone not to be upset about it… Talk to women of color and hear their personal experiences. Get to know the background, understand why people are offended by it, and [learn] how we can be more sensitive of other people's cultures—how we can enlighten ourselves…"
Cornrolls are apart of black culture and is essentially a means of survival for black hair during the summer time or that time when you were 10 and your mother just didn't feel like doing your hair and braids were the only option you had if didn't want to look crazy. So for it to be 2016 and white america is naming renaming cornrolls "boxer braids" and calling it "new" and "trendy", it's a problem. Zendaya couldn't have said it any better.
Do you agree with what Zendaya had to say? Let us know below.

In what form is the short story known as "Lefty" by Nikolai Leskov written?
- print Print
- list Cite
Nikolai Leskov wrote "The Left-Handed Craftsman: A Tale of the Cross-Eyed Left-Handed Craftsman of Tula and the Steel Flea" (1881) in the form of and after the style of a Russian folk tale with fantasy woven into it. Anton Chekhov considered Leskov a mentor and he agreed with Maxim Gorky that Leskov was the most Russian of the 19th century writers, with his writing uninfluenced by Western culture.
These traits of Russianism are apparent in Leskov's short story affectionately known as "The Left-Handed Craftsman" or "Lefty." The story is humorous and exaggerates into improbabilities the successes and achievements of the Industrial era in a similar manner as Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story "The Artist of the Beautiful" does. Leskov's story shows some influence from Gogol's earlier works that combined fantasy with narrative, such as "The Overcoat" (1842).
"Good heavens," said the Emperor, "is it really as detailed as all that?"
So they put the [mechanical] flea under the microscope ... and no sooner had the Emperor taken a look ... than a smile broke out on his face and he took the [left-handed] Tula craftsman ... and kissed him, ....
"You see, ...Why, the fellows have shod the flea's feet."
Everyone now ... had a look, and, indeed, each of the flea's feet had been shod with a real horseshoe.
Of course, in this example of fantasy woven in with folk tale, the irony is that while the Russians produce finer work, with craftsmen's signatures included on the minuscule flea horseshoes with invisible nails made by Lefty, they were unable to produce a mechanical enhancement and, in fact, destroyed the mechanical function of the dance the minuscule English flea could formerly perform.

What Are Radioisotopes?
Use In Medicine
Use in Industry
Iridium- 192
Cobalt - 60
Science Behind Radioisotopes
Production of Radioisotopes
Impact of Radioisotopes On Society & Environment
Radioisotopes are isotopes which are radioactive.
Isotopes are elements which occur in more than one form, that is, have same atomic number(number of protons) but different mass numbers(due to differing numbers of neutrons)
For example, carbon occurs as C-12, C-13 and C-14
Radioactive Isotopes
'Radioactivity' is the energy and mass released by spontaneous changes in the nucleus of an atom. However, 'Radiation' is energy that travels ('radiates') as waves or particles.
Radioactive isotopes are unstable, due to different numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
They emit radiation to gain stability by spontaneously releasing energy, or radiation as either particle nature, or electromagnetic radiation, called 'radioactive decay'.
The time taken for the level of radioactivity of an isotope to half is called it's half life'.
There are three types of radiation, Alpha, Beta and Gamma.
During alpha decay, the nucleus emits a particle consisting or 2 protons and 2 neutrons (helium nucleus), causing the element to change from one to another.
Beta decay occurs in two ways:
Beta Minus decay-A neutron is converted to a positron, electron and antineutrino, which are emitted as a beta particle. This process includes a gain in number of protons.
Beta plus decay- A proton is converted into a neutron, positron and neutrino, the positron and neutrino are emitted at a beta particle, resulting in reducing number of protons by one.
Gamma rays are high frequency electromagnetic waves(photons), in which the nucleus emits to rid itself of excess energy, often accompanying alpha and beta decay.
The isotope remains the same, due to no loss of neutrons or protons.
A number of radioisotopes occur naturally such as carbon-14, others are produced in a reactor, or cyclotron.
These are those elements greater then 92 in atomic number, or 'transuranic'.
Nuclear Reactor
The core of the reactor produces large amounts of neutrons.
These then collide with heavy nuclei which are in the reactor.
This causes spontaneous fission to occur, where the nucleus breaks, resulting in a number of fragments as well as some useful isotopes, which are chemically separated for use in medicine and industry.
e.g Americium-241 and strontium-90.
The cyclotron involves circular shaped device with a magnetic field.
Its operates by accelerating charged particles including protons and alpha particles to high energies, to cause collision, called 'nuclear bombardment'.
New nuclei form with collision.
e.g. Mg-24 bombardment produces Na-22.
Radioisotope Generator
Uses chemical reactions with parent cell of relatively long half life, combined with positive pressure and eluent solution, to create daughter cell with short half life.
These are suitable for binding with pharmaceuticals, as use for medicine and are located within medical facilities to account for short half life.
Implications of Radioisotopes
Should radioisotope Use Be Continued?
Cobalt 60 In Medicine
Americium-241 in Industry
Americium is commonly used in industry in smoke detectors
Recent developments have established Americium as a potentail use as a Thermoelectric generator
It is also used for fluid-density gauges, thickness gauges, aircraft fuel gauges.
Thermoelectric Generator
Americium-241 is currently being researched into potential for use in an alternative for fuel for thermoelectric generaters, which fuel space craft power sources.
Americium is economically viable and is considered because of its long half life of 432 years, which means that it coould possible create an energy source which could last up to 1000 years, proving extremely useful for a space device.
Gamma decay of Am-241 generates heat. Heat is used to affect an array of thermocouples, between teo metals of a different temperature gradient, causing voltage, or energy to occur.
Smoke Detectors
A smallmount of Americium decays alpha partciles, which collide with oxygen and nitrogen in air, causing them to ionise.
This creates a steady current between electrodes.
When smoke enters, ions neutralise, breaking current and setting off detector.
Americium-241 in Medicine
Americium-241 has been used in medicine by using gamma gays to detcect Thyroid defects, via use of its gamma radiation, which is picked up by a gamma-ray camera.
It has also been used as an alternative for x-ray imaging in the way of radiography imaging.
Californium-252 in Medicine
Califorium-252 is being used as an efficient treatment for both cervical cancer and brain tumours, where other radiation treatments are unnaffective.
Rapidly dividing cells are particularly sensitive to damage by radiation. For this reason, some cancerous growths can be controlled or eliminated by irradiating the area containing the growth.
It is extremely successful in its use in bracytherapy, or ratiation therapy of cervical cancer, where extremely harmful and radioactive gamma radiation is produced by nuclear fission, causing targeted tissue to be destroyed.
Califorium-252 is produced in either a reactor or accelerator by nuclear bombardment.
The half life of 2.64 years and relatively strong radioactivity make it suitable for medical use.
Californium-252 in Industry
Californium is used in airports to detect explosives in baggage.
Californium-252 is used as a source of neutrons.
Neutrons excite nitrogen which is found in explosives to nitrogen-15, then causing emmission of gamma rays.
These gamma rays are detected and alarm airport personell of explosives!
Iridium-192 in Medicine
Iriudium-192 is used in HDR bracchytherapy of prostate cancer.
It is able to be posistioned next to the tumour, allowing direct treatmement at the sight of the tumour, as well as implanted in seed form.
It involves gamma radiation, which destroys cancerous cells.
With a half life of 73.7 days, it is suitable for use on humans.
Iridium-192 in Industry
Iridium-192 is used in industry as a means of testing and grading welds on pressurised piping and vessels, as well as in pipelines and metal castings.
Gamma radiation is emmitted via nuclear fission, and any radiation which passes through is detceted, proving faults in the materials.
The half life of 73.7 days makes it appropriate for this use as it discintegrates, leaving no traces of radioactive material in pipes.
Radium-226 in Industry
In the 1950s and during WWII, Radium-226 was used on watch dials and in military aircraft because of its ability to emmit radiation which glowed in the dark.
It decays alpha particles, and has a half life of 1601 years, proving its suitability for use in long life aircraft.
Because of it's great instability, Radium-226 is able to emmit luminescent light, which explains the faint blue glow, making it useful for dials in military aircraft and watch dials.
Strontium-90 Industrial Uses
Likewise Americium-241, Strontium-90 is used in the production of Thermoelectric generators, but for use in lighthouses, not space craft.
Strontium-90 is a Beta emmittier, and emits radiation which is reflected between the temperature gradient of two thermocouples, generating power to light the lighthouse.
Strontium-90s halflife of 28.8 years allows an extensive lifetime to create pawer for the lighthouse, whilst being of a safe strength to use on earth and reduce harmful radiation to humans.
Strontium-90 Uses in Medicine
Strontium-90 is excellent as use in treating "Superficial conjunctival squamous cell cancer", a cancer of the eye.
Beta paricles are emmitted into the eye externally, through a concave shaped applicater, targeted at the direct sight of the tumour, destroying malignant cells.
Plutonium-238 in Medicine
Plutonium-238 is used in medicine to power pace makers, which regulate the heart beat of a human with an electric shock.
Plutonium-238 is an alpha particle (helium nucleus) emmitter, which rapidly decays, causing it to give off heat.
This heat is absopbed bthe fuel capsule, then converted to energy by the thermoelectric converter.
The fuel capsule blocks radiation of gamma ray and beta ray type, which is harmful to humans.
The relatively long half life means that the pacemake does not require recharging, which requires surgical proccesses.
Plutonium Use In Industry
Plutonium-238 is used in Nuclear weapons.
Due to its high rate of emmission of alpha particles, it is a solid reactor in these weapon.
This same quality of high rate of emmission also means that it produes heat, which can be a problem in a nuclear weapon due to unstability, however this is overcome with use of cafeful management devices. Because of this unstability, Plutonium-239 is a better option for use in nulear weapons.
Plutonium-239 is suitable for use in nuclear bombs, as the high rate of nuclear fission occurs as a chain reaction, gamma radiation and thermal energy generate in a process which leads to an explosion!
Heavy Metal
Alpha particles have low penetration, and are stopped easily, making them suitable for use in smoke detectors, as the current is syopped.
Absorbed easily by 'geiger counters', they are of little use as tracers.
Great for treatment in medicine as they are not too penetrating, so won't kill unintended tissue.
Much too weak for use in industry as gauges.
Beta particles are ideal for ue as gauges, as particles are of medium strength, so will penetrate some materials, and not others, and it is this characteristic whuch measures density in materials and faults.
Requires long enough half life so that signal is not lost from rapid decay.
Radium-226 in Medicine
In the twentieth century, radium-226 was used in radiation treatment of cancerous tumours.
Needles containing the isotope were injected, and alpha decay destroyed the cancer cells.
However, most uses of radium-226 have been ceased, due to the extensive halflife of 1601 years, which means that the isotope remains in the body, continually emmitting radiation, having harmful effects.
Cobalt-60 in Industry
Cobalt-60 is the most commonly used radioisotope in industry, with a range of different uses. One of these uses is irradiation of food sources.
Gamma radiation is emmitted by Cobalt-60 and is used to irradiate indirectly a number of types of foods.
It serves the purpose of: delaying ripening, inhibit sprouting, extend shelf life due to reduced spoilage and to kill harmful bacteria and diseases such as salmonella which may be present in foods.
The radiation is enough to kill bacteria and other harful products on the food source, but are not strong enough to destroy the food source.
Photographic Film
The film is 'exposed' by the radiation.
This is how radioactivity was dicovered and is used in both medicine and industry to detect radiation for example levels of radiation to workers may be detected, ensuring that they are not over exposed.
Geiger-Muller Counter
The Geiger-Muller tube contains gas that ionises and produces a small pulse of electricity each time it is ionised by radiation. The counter counts the number of pulses.(HSCONLINE)
Scintillation Counter
Scintilation counters detect low energy radiation which is too weak to ionise, thus the geiger-muller counter is impracticle.
The radiation is transfered to a solvent flourescent molecule, producing light.
The light produces a pulse and the counter counts the number of pulses.
Cobalt-60 emmits gamma radiation which is used in the treatment of cancer.
Cancer cells are actively growing, thus the DNA is more succeptible to gamma ray damage than healthy cells.
A beam of radiation is externally projected into cancerous tissue, destroying the tissue and causing minimal damage to healthy tissue.
It's half life of 5.3 years means that a cannister is useful for up to ten years before requiring replacement.
Food irradiaton techniques have huge implications on the food industry. Extended shelf life of food means that it is much ,ore economically viable, as produce can be stored until readiness for use!
Benifets of radioisotopes to medicine are indescribable, infanant treatments have been developed which aid in recovery of previously terminally ill diseases, with radiation therapy with isotopes such as cobalt-60.
Gauging and measuring defects in materials such as aircraft has invaluable use. Safety of aircraft and all types of people movers is directly a result of radioisotopes, and the ability to detect defects usingradiation.
All radiation is dangerous to living cells, even low exposure increases risk of genetic mutations and cancer.
Radiations ability to kill and mutate cells is the cause of these disorders.
It can take up to ten years for the effects of radiation to be visable.
A 1991 study predicted that 2.4 million people will eventually die as a result of radiation.
Nuclear weapons from isotopes of uranium and plutonium have had catastophic effects, take for example hiroshima, an elposion which killed 66 000 people directly.
Americium-241 ith a half life of 432 years means that this long storage after use, continues emmission of decay, altering genetic material and risking bone cancer.
Strontium-90 can cause bone cancer and cancer of nearby tissue as well as luekaemia.
Plutonium-239 has the potential to cause lung, bone and liver cancer.
Because radium-226 is chemically similar to calcium, it has the tendency to affect bone tissue, causing cancer and other disorders from its radioactive decay.
Iridium-192 emmission of gamma rays has the harmful effect of causing burns both internally and externally as well as increasing risks of developing cancer.
Californium-252 emmits harmfull gamma rays, and increases chance of damage to genetics, immune system, leukaemia, stillbirth, miscarriage, deformity and infertility.
Nuclear power production reduces dependence on other forms of power production such as coal, reducing use of environmentally harmful fossil fuels.
Smoke alarms use decay of Americium-241 are a huge asset in all buildings, in both the industry and doemstically warning people of fire and saving lives.
Tracing techniques in medicine allow research and understanding of functioning of the human body in medicine, by tracing reactions such as metabolism, which opens areas of treatment and pharmacuticals.
Dating of fossils such as C-14 means that studies of paleontology can estimate the age of fossils and even the age of the earth.
Detection of disease through radiography techniques including PET (positron emmission) allow detection of life threatening diseses such as brain tumours, which means that early treatment can be implementedand survival chances incresed.
Damage to DNA
All radiotive materials produce waste which needs to be disposed of. The issue is that many radioactive materials have halflives of thouands of years, thus continue to decay for this time, releasing harmful radiation into the environment.
The way that this is disposed of is innefficient and involves dumping of containers of radioactivity in the ocean and desterts.
This brings the possbility that there may be a leak, and the surrounding aquatic environment and eventually humans are effected.
With radioactive power production there is a risk of nuclear melt down, a release of radiation due to breakdown of reactor, causing harm to people and environement.
As well as the qualitive issues associated with Radioisotopes, there is also an element of ethical consideration. The idea of distrupting natural proccesses, such as those in medical treatment reguarding radioisotopes is an arguement which will be continually supported by many conservitive goups globally.
Health issues are an obvious major concern associated with use of radioisotopes in both industry and medicine. Both areas have the potential to expose humans to radiation which can cause cancer and other disorders to humans.
There is no way of measuring effects on humans as of yet, and effects can take years to be prevalant, thus the effects are truely never known as there is no way of diagnosing cancer as a result of radiation like a cold or flu virus.
However, the advances in both medicine and industry are phenominal, medical advancement in detection and treatment of diseases has saved countless lives and industrial advances have improved things such as safety from a gauge or smoke detector out os sight, if these were to suddenly be taken away, effects would be catastrophic. Adavances in medicine and industry far outweigh negative effects, however, much more reseach should go into the management of radioactive waste material.
Governments have the problem of coming up with waste programs and funding research and development.
Radioisotopes have irriversable effects on both society and the environment, medical diseases cannot be reversed and environmental waste cannot be eliminated.
Radiosotopes can have half-lives of up to thousands of years, and will continually emmit radiation into the environment and effect people unless disposed of correctly, which there is no suitable way.
Use of nuclear power reactors eliminate use of fossil fuels, reducing the effect of hyrdrocarbons on the environment in ways such as global warming, as well as the non renewable limited supply.
Uranium mining which is required for production of many radioisotopes has obious environemental effects, distruping the local ecosystem.
Nuclear power reactors use water in generating electricity, thus thermal pollution is an issue.
Areas in the environment surrounding areas where radioisotopes are produced, such as around Lucas heights have decreased in real estate value, people believe the environment is extremely harmful in radioactivity and are concerned for their health if they were to be living in the area.
Overall, I believe that the benefits of Radiosisotopes outweighs the obvious effects drastically.
However, the effects of radiation is not neccesarily a measurable issue, it is a silent killer and is one which may take years to have an effect.
There are not yet any sustainable ways to dispose of radioisotopes and I believeve that much more research should go into this avenue of radioisotopes so that the contiunation of radioisotopes is viable.
The controversy is really an issue of supply and demand, that is, do radioisotopes cure enough people of cancer and other diroders, for the number of people which develop these as a result of radiation???
Nuclear power as an alternative to fossil fuels means that the amount of fossil fuel burnt is reduced, thus the pollution to environemnt and global warming reduced.

The zone of stability is a graph showning the ratio of protons and neutrons which is a stable isotope.
The penetrating power of gamma radiation means that it is suitable for radiography techniques as well as radiotheraphy. Alpha particles would be too readily absorbed for a geiger counter, so would be impracticle for radiography and beta particles are not penetrating enough.
Tracing techniques are suitable for gamma radiation, as the penetration can be picked up, however, half life should be short enough to reduce health hazards.
Gamma radiation is appropriate for the same reason for sterilizing medical eqiupment and irradiation of food, as it can kill hamful bacteria without damagiing equipment or produce.
From each of these uses, it is clear that advances in science of radioisotopes go hand in hand for medicine and industry, each area borrows research and findings and attempts to implement the uses in their field, this is evident in each of these radioisotopes as they are used in both fields, for example, gamma radiation is used for irradiation of food and streilisation of medical eqiupment, as it has th epower to kill harmful bacteria and not damage eqipment or produce.
Current plans are in place for the Australian governemnt to fund radioactive waste 'dumping facilities' in the northern territory. Just because the waste is far from cities, it does not mean that people and the environment as a whole go unaffected.
In summary,
Cause: Unstable isotopes in nature decay, releasing radiation/Industrial producion
Link:Types of production of radioisotopes(nuclear bombardment etc)
Effect:Detection of radiation, put into the many uses in industry and medicine (E.g. radiography)

with her new toy train!! YAY CHRISTMAS!
when i am listening to someone talk about art, and they begin to tell me what informs the painting, i feel my heart pick up the pace. this question of where does it come from always motivates me to look deeper, to press in. i begin by noticing all of these elements that i had missed previously and suddenly, this art is no longer just in front of me, but rather is it is in and through me and we are cut from the same dna.
i have been pondering this today. what informs my life? from where do i derive my energy or strength? what are the influences which lead me to believe one thing or another? this question of what informs my life is complicated.
motherhood has informed much of my adult life. perhaps only for certain seasons, like now, in which i find myself slightly sleep deprived with an achy back. in other seasons, it was my friends: long talks into the night, walking to the grocery store in the snow, or crying through movies. those places where the air is actually thin and as the celts believed, the divine peeks through. most days, being awake to the vast needs of marginalized people is more than enough to inform my life.
and whether or not i like it, pain informs much of my life and the lives of everyone i know. and humans have a great capacity for running away from pain, from avoiding anything that we see as negative.
as i thought about what informs my life today, i realized that even after all this time, i am prone to try and avoid pain. maybe i always will try. but now, i can see in my life, more than ever before, what beautiful and fierce works of art that are made when i allow pain to season and develop my life. the pain digs and carves inside me, and then those holes become cisterns and wells to be filled with divine compassion and love. compassion that otherwise would not exist.
on the days when i forget what those cisterns are for, i try to fill them with anything i can.
but today, i remember why they are there and their role of informing my life. and then i wait for each one to fill.
my boss swears that one day i will write a really good book. we'll see. maybe by the time i am ready to write it, everyone's cisterns will be old news.
so basically, i have spent the last two years of my life in prenatal care land. appointments, ultrasounds, glucose tests. last year of course, it was for my own sweet t who eventually made her appearance in january. and just as i finished up the last of my postpartum visits, one of my friends, one of my language teachers found out that she was pregnant. in fact that she was already several months pregnant when she found out.
so, we went to prenatal visits together, to ultrasounds together. she had a uncomfortable pregnancy, but nothing dangerous. and this baby was due last week. naturally, baby girl didn't come when the calendar thought she should.
so when she texted in the middle of the night yesterday to tell me she was in labor (gratefully, t woke me up because she was gassy, otherwise, i might have missed it!) i was excited! of course! it's time! i picked up my bff the doula/painter/community organizer/yoga awesome-er/has too many jobs to list and off we went to see how things were moving along.
and thus began the day at 2:30 am.
she was a champ! she worked so hard, even though she was exhausted, she stayed with us, she trusted us, even though she wanted to run away so badly. i wept with so much grief for all she has endured in her life and then enduring labor with grace and faith. it was so amazing to be a part of her journey like that.
and that is really what i am feeling this morning: how amazing it is to be invited to join in another's journey. it is a great honor to be sacredly entrusted with the vulnerability and tender terror that rises in us when we do not understand our lives.
and the truth is a birth is only a well illuminated metaphor for this phenomena. every day, we are all given this trust by people in our lives, sometimes even by complete strangers.
it was a great privilege. one i will never forget.
and of course, at the last moment, when she thought she could do no more, this lovely lady arrived (see pic below), full of fierce grace and beauty.
as we sad goodbye to her last night, sixteen hours from our first texting, she hugged us and thanked us for being there with her. her heart was full of a new baby and gratitude. and then i thanked her for the honor of trusting me to walk with her.
my friend doesn't believe me yet. that it was an honor to walk through those sixteen hours of her life with her. it's okay, i didn't believe it either the first time someone told me that about the hard thing i walked through. but maybe i am catching on.
i can see venus just to my right. and there is something so consoling about her. as though she is nodding to me, good to see you again.
on days when i am exhausted and overwhelmed, i can sit on my porch, rocking a fussy baby, and just watch the sky. it never fails to provide solace and comfort.
i will save it for always.
we continue to adjust to newborn hood. it's true, we never realized what we were missing til we met her. 🙂 my uncle and aunt sent her a sweet book called "the night you were born." if you haven't read it, get it. it's so sweet and special.
and it's true for you too.
a good friend of mine told me that babies practice all the sounds of all the languages in the world in their first few months, and then they settle on the ones they hear most frequently. so i'm giving her a good خ (kh) now and again, so hopefully that letter will be easier for her someday.
she's also attending the french class i'm teaching at the homeschool co-op, which is fun.
in other, non-baby news, i walked 3 times this week, in preparation for in two weeks when i can start running again. i've missed running. i actually find walking a little harder than running in some ways. it's tough to go slow. i always kind of feel like a boss when i run.
i'm dabbling back into work also, and it's going okay. the advocacy world doesn't stop when you're on maternity leave, so sometimes it's a little overwhelming to pop in. but i'm getting an assistant soon, and she'll be helpful, i'm sure.
we have dear friends coming to visit this weekend and another set next weekend. we're so excited, we love visitors. aaand, that also means play. and we like to play. a lot.
i had a baby! 🙂
and it was great. wicked hard, but that's why they call it labor. it was exactly what i wanted, water birth and all. there was this realization post birth that in labor, i was in this cocoon between my husband and our doula. and it was easily the safest place i've ever been, even though it was the hardest emotionally and physically.
we were built for intimacy and community in the middle of our pain. don't ever let anyone tell you otherwise.
baby girl is doing well, adjusting to the outside. after all that waiting, it's funny, i read today on her newborn report that she actually scored more like a baby at 39 weeks gestation, even though by the calendar i was 41 weeks pregnant. so that'll teach me to watch a calendar. not that i'll need to again. i'm good.
she's the sweetest angel and i love her so much. her big sister e is completely enamored. so much so that i was pretty grateful that school started back today, just so i didn't have to have so much "help." 🙂 really, though, e loves being a big sister. we're sure that the newness will eventually wear off, but for now, we let her pick out t's clothes and hold her whenever possible. i'm still not sure that e realizes t isn't actually a doll.
t's due to wake up any minute now, so i will close with a picture. that's what you were hoping for anyway.

Eyeliner is commonly used as a daily make up routine to define the eyes. From ancient times black eyeliner has played a significant role any makeup look. Eyeliner can be used to achieve different looks like if applied correctly smaller eyes can look wide and vice versa. You can use black eyeliner in many different ways like on upper lashes or below lower lashes or both, even you can skip kajal and use a pigmented soft waterproof eye pencil on the water lines. If you want to make your lashes look naturally thick, one of my personal favorite trick is tight lining, tight lining is the use of eye liner tight against the water line under the lashes of the upper lid.
