within a few days after the bombing collecting samples and making measurements (Cullings & Smith, 2010). Advances in exposure science obtained precise dose estimates which helped to understand the health effects of radiation and the probability of harmful effects at a given dose (Cullings & Smith, 2010). This knowledge led to regulations and guidance to protect workers, medical patients, and the general public (Cullings & Smith, 2010). In 1959, the Federal Radiation Council was established and…

There are numerous risk factors identified by many researchers that influence the occurrence of clinical mastitis such as age, parity, lactation stage, milk yield(Yamane, 2003; Rollin et al., 2015) A. Breed Risk of mastitis varies from breed to breed. High yielding cows are generally considered to be more susceptible to intramammary infection e.g. Holstein Frisian (HF), Jersey or HF and Jersey cross bred dairy cows are more susceptible to mastitis than Desi (Zebu) breeds of cows (Sharma, 2003)…

Our big blue world is dying and we are the cause. Human beings are wasteful creatures: people overstock their fridge with food that they will just toss out because it was left in their too long, some countries ( the USA) won’t invest into renewable energy because they are afraid of losing their oily money, then we make things that are more harmful than good like Whole Foods already peeled organic oranges that come in a decent size clear plastic container that cost about six dollars. Humans take…
