Across Quotes
That's a tumor. It goes across my liver, up through my lungs, all the way around my heart. And when they were done trying to cut it out, nuke it out with radiation and chemotherapy it out, it left so much scar tissue that when I walk outside now in cold weather and take a deep breath, it feels like someone is stabbing me.

Certain Quotes
Since we can produce all types of light by means of hot bodies, we can ascribe, to the radiation in thermal equilibrium with hot bodies, the temperature of these bodies, and thus every radiation, even that issuing from a phosphorescent body, has a certain temperature for every colour.

Achieve Quotes
One of the things they do is bombard (organic materials, such as leather) with gamma rays radiation to kill whatever bacteria might be lurking inside of it, ... In some cases the artifacts are freeze-dried to achieve the same thing. In other cases they have to be placed in a biocide solution that kills the bacteria.

We then had a six hour face to face meeting with one of the principles from a company that we use as consultants for this project. He has a Masters Degree in Nuclear Physics and a Masters Degree in Health Physics. He holds a Comprehensive Board Certification in Health Physics. There are approximately 250 people in the world with this certification and less than 50 are available for consulting work. When it comes to radiation safety, the effects of radiation on humans and radiation detection, this man is truly in a class by himself.

Mammograms Quotes
I go for my completely routine mammogram and then I get a call from my gynecologist. And she says, 'Well, I have some - it's not such great news, but here it is, but it's very small and we're just going to get in there and take it right out, right away, and then you'll probably have radiation.'

Both Quotes
We need to do much more than pay lip service to port security as the Republican-controlled Congress is now doing. We must put in place both the funding and the personnel resources to ensure that all cargo containers entering U.S. ports, especially high-risk ports, are screened for radiation and other dangerous substances.

Accident Quotes
This was a very serious accident with major health consequences, especially for thousands of workers exposed in the early days who received very high radiation doses, and for the thousands more stricken with thyroid cancer, ... By and large, however, we have not found profound negative health impacts to the rest of the population in surrounding areas, nor have we found widespread contamination that would continue to pose a substantial threat to human health, (apart from) a few exceptional, restricted areas.

Black Quotes
Black holes are perhaps the most exotic objects to impinge on the cosmic consciousness. They are formed when matter such as that from a dying massive star collapses in calamitously under its own gravity, forming a region of space in which the gravitational field is so strong that it swallows all matter and radiation that come near it.

Absorb Quotes
A dark-colored home absorbs as much as 90 percent of the solar radiation that strikes it, and even white walls can absorb solar radiation. By reflecting this infrared radiation rather than absorbing it, the Cool Wall coatings dramatically reduce the load on a home's air-conditioning system. And because they are reflective, they are less prone to fading even dark colors stay darker longer than conventional paint technologies.

Atomic Quotes
I loved what she said about Cindy Sheehan. ... I think it's important that she exposed the oil companies' destruction of our planet and how they hire the military to kill village people where they are raping the resources and the people in Nigeria. And she's exposing the oil spills ... and how the Pentagon tried to hide the truth about atomic bombs (and paid a New York Times reporter) to write stories that covered up the radiation sickness,

Ancient Quotes
Incidentally, disturbance from cosmic background radiation is something we have all experienced. Tune your television to any channel it doesn't receive, and about 1 percent of the dancing static you see is accounted for by this ancient remnant of the Big Bang. The next time you complain that there is nothing on, remember that you can always watch the birth of the universe.
