consequences of radiations

Havoc has broken loose for the people of Japan.One of the biggest concern Japan has is health.How to make sure that the food hasnt been contaminated?or that the peoples health is in no danger?The fear of radiation poisoning looms over the head of the people of Japan.According to Dr Jennifer Aston people need to limit their exposure near nuclear reactors,keep distance from the source of radiation,and also shield yourself..She said that the radiations could damage the division of cells, thyroid,and most probably develop into leukemia.

Shoppers are also concerned about the food contamination and the effects of radiation on it.People are trying to avoid anything that comes from the ocean.According to the World Health Organization food contamination is alot more serious than it was first expected.Japan has stopped the sales of spinach and raw milk near the damaged areas.The contamination of food is a great stress for Japan as it puts the health of people in dangerA woman in Hong Kong shops for fruit in a Japanese department store.

Recorded as 9.0 on the Richter scale, it was the most powerful quake ever to hit the country. As the nation struggled with a rescue effort, it also faced the worst nuclear emergency explosions and leaks of radioactive gas took place in three reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station . Japanese officials turned to increasingly desperate measures,and the earthquake also threaten to hit Hawaii.More than 9500 people have been yet reported as dead whereas 1600 missing.The Japanese have decided to import the water bottles as the water could be contaminated  with radio active iodine and could be harmful for the infants.The destructive radiations could be severe and harmful to not only present generation but also to the upcoming generations as well.

"Bullying"

Bullying is what many people, especially students experience.It isnt something pleasant infact just a way to make the others feel inferior.Mocking somebody,teasing them,poking fun at them, all comes in bullying.Some people might forget these times of bullying while these childish,immaturish acts can carry serious consequences for some.It affects their life in such a way that their never able to come out of the shadows of inferiority.The high school moments become an endless nightmare for them and spend their lives thinking the world is full of cruel predators and there is no place for them.Nowdays bullying is an everyday occurence,youll see students harrasing a new student or even teachers getting bullied by the students.What i believe is that one should never ignore the ones who bully you or run away from them,one should talk back and treat them like they treat you and theyll know youre no coward and theyll themselves stop bothering you.Learn to defend yourself and fight for yourself when need.President Obama was right when he said that one should always look for the best in others and always put yourself in the others shoes,just because one isnt like you, doesnt justify bullying infact nothing does.

"why monogamy matters"

Yes,monogamy matters.It is seen in research studies that people who opt for causal sex are more likely to develop depression especially females.Monogamy provides a stability in a relationship that is absent in a causal sex I am not stating that all premarital sex leads to emotional downfall and unsteady relationships but individuals that get to know and care each other before sex,have a much better outcome.This is the basic reason that monogamy results in much more lasting and satisfied relationship then one outside of marriage and of causal sex. I feel that it is much healthier for oneself to actually  wait for someone that one actually cares.
