A little about me...
I am an active, outgoing entrepeneur with a positive attitude - who finds time to enjoy life, travel, exercise, and keep everything "together"! I enjoy eating at many different types of resturants, going to movies, and traveling to exotic destinations. I have been to EVERY continent...including Antartica. My favorite cities are probably Vancouver, Buenos Aires, Venice and Saint Petersburg (Russia). I love the ocean, beaches, cruises, etc....with Tahiti being my favorite thus far. I lived and studied in London for almost a year --- and have obtained two Master's degrees. Yet, I feel the experiences one has from travel and life in general, are just as important and educational as the things one can learn in a classroom or from a book... Anyone out there who's fun, spontaneous, likes to exercise, romantic, and has some time to see the world ????
About the one I'm looking for...
LADIES -- PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING -- I do appreciate the very many letters and expressions of interest. However - the person I am looking for should be approximately 45 to 59 years old -- in good shape, active, and enjoy exercising. Also - I own a company in the women apparel industry and deal with fashion - fit - and appearance on a constant basis. I am around many attractive ladies, and am usually prefer rather slender ladies with a wonderful smile. I write this because I am looking for a serious, long term relationship and "chemistry" as well as intelligence, friendliness, and outlook on life are all important. Hoping to meet a "partner" with a good sense of humor. She will probably be my best friends, romantic, and love to travel and explore different places. I do not intend to offend anyone with the above comments....but I feel we are all entitled to look for, and hopefully find, that person for which we have both true compatability and attraction.
I'd just like to add...
I do not like confrontation and prefer to discuss differences or problems, rather than arguing and being highly emotional when they do occur. To me it is important for two people to know how to compromise with each other and try to keep their other half happy.
I think romance is important in any relationship and should be pursued by BOTH partners throughout the years to help each other feel special!

changes shown for the United States in Figure O.2 relative to the re-plots of Milly et al. (2005) results in USCCSP (2008b). In general, those results showed more of an east-west divide in runoff changes across the United States, with modest increases in the east, and decreases across most of the west, which were most severe in the Colorado River and Great Basins. We extracted from our multi-model suite the same 12 models analyzed by Milly et al. (from the approximately 20 that were available to us), and analyzed the results in the same way as did Milly et al. (2041-2060 minus 1900-1970 means). When so analyzed, the results were quite similar to those shown in USCCSP (2008a). The differences in patterns in our results as compared with USCCSP (2008b) and Milly et al. (2005) apparently come about because of (a) differences in the 1900-1970 based period (used by Milly et al. [2005] versus 1971-2000 base period that we used, and (b) differences in the number of models considered (nearly double in our analysis relative to those available to Milly et al. (2005). As in Milly et al. (2005) and USCCSP (2008a), we have limited our analysis to annual runoff volumes.
Our overall conclusion therefore is that streamflow in many temperate river basins outside Eurasia will decrease as global temperature increases, with the greatest decreases in areas that are currently arid or semi-arid. Streamflow across most of the United States will decrease, although there is considerable disagreement among models aside from the Southwest, where most models project decreases, and Alaska, where most models project increases. Runoff sensitivities are approximately constant (per degree of global warming) in the range 1-2ºC warming. There is strong agreement among models that runoff in the Arctic and other high-latitude areas, including Alaska, will increase.
The impact of climate change on the frequency of large fires and extent of area burned by wildfires depends mainly on the type of vegetation (fuel) and the future weather and climate. In many regions that have been examined, the projected climate change will cause large changes in wildfire frequency and extent. In a broad sense, wildfires will increase in regions that are dominated by forests that are already prone to fire in the current climate, while warming (without a sufficient increase in precipitation) will cause a decrease in wildfires in some shrub and grassland (fuel limited) regions that are prone to fire in the present climate.
The probability of wildfire depends on the availability of fuel, the moisture content of the fuels, and the likelihood of ignition. Ignition of most large

Fanatic flare up in Delhi.
Diwali put on a hurdle by fanatic Muslims in Delhi.
Prohibitory orders imposed in Trilokpuri and Majnu ka Tila.
Muslims do not bear the rituals and festivity of the Hindu community very unfortunately.
Communal violence gripped Delhi's Trilokpuri and Majnu ka Tilla areas during and after Diwali.
HENB | New Delhi | 25 Oct 2014:: Tension gripped east Delhi's Trilokpuri area after people from two communities clashed over a religious issue on Friday evening. Two persons allegedly suffered bullet wounds during the fight, said doctors at Lal Bahadur Shashtri Hospital. However, no casualty was reported till filing of this report.
Delhi Police has finally imposed curfew and ordered to shoot any miscreant on the spot in East Delhi's Trilokpuri locality, after communal tension erupted in the locality. Although the crowd has been dispersed now, the situation is still very tense after stone pelting between members of two communities.
Four people were shot at during a clash between Hindu and Muslim communities over an issue of erecting a make shift 'Mata Ki Chouki ' on the side of the outer wall of a mosque during Diwali festival in east Delhi's Trilokpuri area, as per reports derived from police and others. So far 33 people have been arrested while police said earlier that ten people were arrested Friday and 23 on Saturday for rioting in the area.
Following the incident, police rushed a large contingent of their personnel to the area to bring the situation under control. Several companies of the Rapid Action Force as well as riot control were also deployed. Senior police officers and the Intelligence Bureau sleuths are also reportedly keeping a close watch on the developments. The area DCP is also monitoring the situation. SHOs in the area have been summoned and forces from the nearby district have been roped to maintain peace and harmony.
The incident began on Thursday evening. While police did not divulge the details, sources said two communities clashed over playing of music at a religious gathering in the first instance on the trail of the total disturbance. The Muslims of the locality claimed that listening music of 'Jagran' of the Hindu festivals is 'haram' and Allah usually turns displeased for all these. As Muslims tried to put troubles to the 'Jagran' played in the music system upon some fake claims of their Imams, the tussle started in a moment.
Hindus of the locality raised the points that they usually adjust 365 days in a year for Azan, overnight Milad-un-Nabi, Islamic Jalsa etc. without objections. But, the Muslims dare to stop Hindu festivals for some days even in Hindu majority areas by lodging complain to the police or by utter hooliganism. It is not fair. While Muslims purposely object Hindu festivals, music, drum beats and procession in front of Mosques and through Muslim localities on the plea of disturbance of Allah or Namaz , they hold Namaz in any public place, arrange Islamic functions, erect mosques, open beef shop and Muslim hotels even in Hindu areas. Muslims must keep in mind that this is Hindusthan-Bharat, not Pakistan or Afghanistan where fanatic Muslims always try to skip the religious rights of Hindus. Muslims in India must learn tolerance from the Hindus at least.
There was heavy stone-pelting on Thursday but police managed to bring the situation under control by Friday morning.
Two youths were arrested after which the situation turned normal. However, a scuffle broke out once again on Friday evening when Muslim started to remove the deities from make shift 'Mata Ki Chouki' , hundreds of Hindu and Muslim mob soon gathered frenzy and in no time stone pelting began from both sides. The situation was, however, soon taken under control by police by suppressing Islamic provocation raised by some outsiders in the Mosque.
While police denied having opened fire, they said several rounds of tear-gas shells were fired. They had to resort to lathicharge to control the mob. A group of around 200 people was involved in the incident, police said.
A case of rioting has been registered at the Mayur Vihar police station and a search is on to nab more culprits at large.
In another case, fanatic Muslims of Majnu-ka-Tila areas also tried to put disturbance in Diwali festivals in Chandrawal gaon. Some Muslims beat some Children of Mandir Gali area while they were bursting crackers on Thursday evening. These Muslim youths came to throng from adjacent E-Block as reported.
Four policemen and about 30 people were injured in two incidents of clashes between members of two communities in Chandrawal village near Civil Lines in north Delhi, late on Thursday night and Friday morning.
According to the police, the first incident took place at about 10.55 pm on Thursday when a fight broke out between two groups at Chandrawal village, adjacent to the Tibetan Refugee Camp at Majnu Ka Tila near Civil Lines.
The two groups – belonging to two communities in the village – live on opposite sides of a common road.
"When some people from one group were bursting in the area of the other, who belonged to a different community, a fight suddenly broke out between them. The fight turned ugly when they started hurling stones at each other and also damaged buses and cars," said a police officer.
A constable named Sonu was hit by a stone on his ear and started bleeding. He was rushed to hospital. "However the situation was brought under control in a few hours," said the officer.
To control the situation Police had to open fire in the air and used tear gas cell.
Police has arrested eight persons for flaring up communal riots and putting hurdles to the duties of govt. officials in Majnu Tila case.
Police conducted peace march and meeting to keep off the tension prevailed in both the areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it possible to have two different kinds of cancer at the same time?
I've never heard of anyone having two different kinds of cancer at the same time and was just wondering if it was possible or not.
I know cancer cells spread, but it's still the same cancer type.
Yes, but fortunately it's rare. I had a co-worker who had breast cancer and leukemia (which is a blood cancer).
Unfortunately, having one type of cancer doesn't protect you from developing any other illness or condition.
What groups are there for people who are healling themselves of cancer?
I know 12 step groups are great for helping people get support through the emotional roller coasters & also given struture when a person needs to stay focused on something they would rather ignore. This groups also help people meet others who can share knowledge. They are a great resource. What websites or phone numbers are there for me to find groups like this for healling different kinds of cancer & other dis-ease. Thank you!
Jonny- when I say natural I should have said without drugs.
johnny is not talking about drugs ma'am,
A man named Rick Simpson has recently come forward (with a team of doctors) with PROOF (and lots of it) that Marijuana does indeed kill cancer cells and break down and destroy this terrible ailment. He has terminal cancer patients describe with cat scans and MRI's exactly their process with this treatment. I am against drugs, but there is a lot more to marijuana than what you think. Please, if you have cancer you should at least open yourself up to watch his documentary about this. Please just watch it for 5 mins, if you dont like it, then shut it off. But I know this will help you, I KNOW this. Good luck, much love.
"Run From the Cure" by Rick Simpson (available on you tube or other sources on the net) Please watch this if you have cancer!!!!!
My dad has lung and esophogus cancer, and i decided that from now on?
I am going to dye my hair a different color each month to represent a different kind of cancer. So anyway, have any idea where i can get brightly colored hair dye?
i am so sorry about your dad my dad had pancreatic cancer so i do know what its like i think its awesome your doing something positive and id say go for it!! sorry i cant help with where to buy it but i just thought i'd let you know i think its a great idea and i totally support yu doing it!! all the best
What is the most popular kind of cancer?
I know there are many different kinds of types of cancers, but I want to know the cancer that kills most people.
are there different kinds of cancer?
Are there different kinds of cancer? I don't just mean cancer in different areas I mean different kinds.
Why does it matter how old I am? And like I said you guys are naming the same kind of cancer just in different locations. I don't want that, I want different kinds of cancer. For example.... I can't really think of a example, um like is there a more deadly kind of cancer?
Thank you Footbiter that is exactly what I wanted to know!
You probably know that the body is made of many different types of cells. In principle each and every cell type can give rise to its own type of cancer. That being said not all cell types have been identified as an origin of a particular type of cancer (for instance "podocytes" of the kidney). But in short the diversity of normal cells explains the diversity of cancer types.
is it the same a lung cancer and a tumor that grow in the lung for the metastasise of other tumor?
It is the same question for any other kind of cancer. My question is if when you have metastasis you have differente kind of cancers or only one in different tissues. If you have different kinds of cancer, must they be treated sepately?
If you are asking if lung cancer cells and a metastasis from a breast cancer to the lungs are the same . . the answer is no they are not the same. A lung cancer cell orginates in the lung and will always be a lung cell. A breast cancer cell dislodges from the breast tissue and spreds to other areas . . that is called metastes. Metastatic breast cells can lodge in the lung and grow . . they are still breast cells, but are now growing at a distant site.
Metastatic cancer cells can all be treated with the same protocol.
In some occasions the patient may have two separate cancers . . a patient can have sarcoma and also have leukemia. In this case the patient may need to be treated for both diseases . . but it is extremely difficult. I do know one survivor who had both stage IV sarcoma and pre-leukemia, he was treated, had stem cell rescue, now disease free, and he is doing well right now.
How EXACTLY does skin cancer kill?
Although I hear of different kinds of cancers daily, I don't know exactly what happens to the body if it goes untreated. I'd like to know, specifically for skin cancer, what happens to the body that leads to death. Why EXACTLY do people die from skin cancer? What symptoms and side effects do people suffer from when they have skin cancer? Surely they don't just have a place on their skin that worsens over time, and then all of a sudden they die one day. I mean, do they get ill; like with fever, nausea, etc.? What happens exactly?
malignant cells in a cancer grow so fast. these malignat cells are not normal and tend to move from their delineated place. these cells get themselves to blood stream and spread in body. some of them like prostate cancer cells replace in spinal bones, some of them in brain, some in liver, some in blood cells. these malignant cells occupy the place of normal cells and don't let them work properly. for example metastatic cells in bone cause lack of white and red blood cell in blood which called cytopenia. its complication cause infection and then death. malignant cells in lymph nodes cause lymph draining stop and cause problem. any way, i don't exactly know which part of body skin metastatic cells move to
Can you be diagnosed with cancer and not know what kind?
My ex husband has said he has 3 different kinds of cancer in the past 3 weeks. And finally last night said he has cancer but they dont know what kind. Can this happen? He said the doctors know because of his white blood count.
Has your ex-husband had any biopsies with staging done? His story doesn't quite add up. An elevated white count is usually an increase in just one type of white blood cell and can be due to infection, it can be reaction to some drugs, smokers often have an elevated white count, it could be due to an immune system disorder that increases white cell production or a bone marrow disease which could include cancer.
I don't believe what he says. 3 different cancers and his doctors don't know what types? Yet they know it's 3 DIFFERENT ones? Cancer isn't diagnosed by blood cell counts. It's diagnosed by biopsy. Therefore, if he's really been diagnosed with it then he was biopsied and the cancers would have to have been identified and staged. And he most definitely would've been told what he has! What's your ex-husband's angle? What does he stand to gain by having you believe this?
What university field should i choose if i wanna research about cancer after i graduate?
Like finding cures for different kinds of cancers...
You would do an undergrad major in a biological science then apply to a grad school program you are interested in. The approach to research of this type varies enormously so your interests and talents will come into play. For instance, botanists contribute to the effort with their intricate knowledge of plant life. Or you might even be a computational scientist, as a lot of the cancer effort focuses on modeling techniques these days -- that is, virtual labs done through computer simulation.
On average, how long does cancer take to kill?
I know there are different kinds of cancer, I also know that not all cancers are fatal but, on average how long between contracting cancer and dying from it?
I lost track of the number of deaths I had among my patients
when the number reached two thousand dead.
They had all types of malignancies. Each person was different/special.
We think that colon cancers and breast cancers
begin years before they are large enough to be found.
It takes approximately one billion cancer cells to make a tumor mass
the size of a marble which is about as early as we can find them.
By that time the cancer cells have double 30 times.
Another ten times and they are large enough to end a person's life.
So about three quarters of the time cancers grow they are growing
"under the radar" when we cannot find them.
So your answer is five years or maybe up to ten or even twenty years
from the first malignant cell to the death of a patient.
Every person and every cancer is different.
What university field should i choose if i wanna research about cancer after i graduate?
Like finding cures for different kinds of cancers...
you can study oncology, bio genetics and chemises
When will I know the cancer has gone to his brain?
I am taking care of my father he is terminal. He has two different kinds of cancers One in the lung and theother in the liver. I have been taking care of him for six months. He was diegnosed over ayear ago.
I'm so sorry to hear about your father's illness. It must be very difficult for you as well. I do not have any medical knowledge about the way cancer spreads. You might try asking his doctors, nurses, or the hospice workers if they know. Sorry I couldn't be of help. God Bless.

Registered Nurses:
RNs can specialize in one or more areas of patient care. There generally are four ways to specialize. RNs can choose a particular work setting or type of treatment, such as perioperative nurses, who work in operating rooms and assist surgeons. RNs also may choose to specialize in specific health conditions, as do diabetes management nurses, who assist patients to manage diabetes. Other RNs specialize in working with one or more organs or body system types, such as dermatology nurses, who work with patients who have skin disorders. RNs also can choose to work with a well-defined population, such as geriatric nurses, who work with the elderly. Some RNs may combine specialties. For example, pediatric oncology nurses deal with children and adolescents who have cancer.
There are many options for RNs who specialize in a work setting or type of treatment. Ambulatory care nurses provide preventive care and treat patients with a variety of illnesses and injuries in physicians' offices or in clinics. Some ambulatory care nurses are involved in telehealth, providing care and advice through electronic communications media such as videoconferencing, the Internet, or by telephone. Critical care nurses provide care to patients with serious, complex, and acute illnesses or injuries that require very close monitoring and extensive medication protocols and therapies. Critical care nurses often work in critical or intensive care hospital units. Emergency, or trauma, nurses work in hospital or stand-alone emergency departments, providing initial assessments and care for patients with life-threatening conditions. Some emergency nurses may become qualified to serve as transport nurses, who provide medical care to patients who are transported by helicopter or airplane to the nearest medical facility. Holistic nurses provide care such as acupuncture, massage and aroma therapy, and biofeedback, which are meant to treat patients' mental and spiritual health in addition to their physical health. Home health care nurses provide at-home nursing care for patients, often as follow-up care after discharge from a hospital or from a rehabilitation, long-term care, or skilled nursing facility. Hospice and palliative care nurses provide care, most often in home or hospice settings, focused on maintaining quality of life for terminally ill patients. Infusion nurses administer medications, fluids, and blood to patients through injections into patients' veins. Long- term care nurses provide health care services on a recurring basis to patients with chronic physical or mental disorders, often in long-term care or skilled nursing facilities. Medical-surgical nurses provide health promotion and basic medical care to patients with various medical and surgical diagnoses. Occupational health nurses seek to prevent job-related injuries and illnesses, provide monitoring and emergency care services, and help employers implement health and safety standards. Perianesthesia nurses provide preoperative and postoperative care to patients undergoing anesthesia during surgery or other procedure. Perioperative nurses assist surgeons by selecting and handling instruments, controlling bleeding, and suturing incisions. Some of these nurses also can specialize in plastic and reconstructive surgery. Psychiatric-mental health nurses treat patients with personality and mood disorders. Radiology nurses provide care to patients undergoing diagnostic radiation procedures such as ultrasounds, magnetic resonance imaging, and radiation therapy for oncology diagnoses. Rehabilitation nurses care for patients with temporary and permanent disabilities. Transplant nurses care for both transplant recipients and living donors and monitor signs of organ rejection.
RNs specializing in a particular disease, ailment, or health care condition are employed in virtually all work settings, including physicians' offices, outpatient treatment facilities, home health care agencies, and hospitals. Addictions nurses care for patients seeking help with alcohol, drug, tobacco, and other addictions. Intellectual and developmental disabilities nurses provide care for patients with physical, mental, or behavioral disabilities; care may include help with feeding, controlling bodily functions, sitting or standing independently, and speaking or other communication. Diabetes management nurses help diabetics to manage their disease by teaching them proper nutrition and showing them how to test blood sugar levels and administer insulin injections. Genetics nurses provide early detection screenings, counseling, and treatment of patients with genetic disorders, including cystic fibrosis and Huntington's disease.

Actually I need limitation of all tests for different kind of Cancers. Please help me, thank you.
There are around 200 different diseases called cancer.
There is no common test.
That is the limitation! each has it's own test or group of tests.
Is it possible to get a disease from taking all kinds of different medicines,ranging from weak to very strong?
For years, I've had a bad case of eczema that has morphed into many different kinds of bad rashes, all over my body. I've been put from all types of cortisone creams to many pills and different types of steroids. Is it possible to develop a disease like cancer from taking so many different medicines like it's possible to develop cancer from things like radiation?
I also have a higher than normal risk of getting cancer... I have to biopsy everything that looks suspicious.
You could get some serious side effects from all of the medications you're taking, but certainly not disease.
What different kinds of black lights are there?
I'm looking for information about the black lights that illuminate florescante stuff. I want to know the different kinds of the lights, the most expensive, and where to buy one. NO STUPID ANSWERS! thanks.
Hey, Ste,
There are a bunch of them. Understand that "Black Light" is essentially Near UV light, so any light that puts out light NEAR the UV spectrum could "kinda/sorta" be called a "Black Light." (It's Kinda / Sorta the way that "Brick Red" is "Kinda / Sorta" like "Red." or how "Aqua" could "Kinda / Sorta" be called "Blue." We're dealing in uncertain terms, here!)
The reason I bring this up is that "Black Light" isn't a TYPE of lightbulb. (As you already know.) It's a "color" (and, I use the term loosely.) In the same way that a flourescent blub can have a red lens put in front of it so that it casts a red glow, a "Black Light" blub can be just a regular old light bulb with a deep violet lens.
But that's not what you're looking for.
You're looking for an Ultra-Violet light. TRUE UV. Not the fake stuff.
So, let's start with the fake stuff, so you know what to avoid.
First, avoid any UV light that looks like a common light bulb. (Namely, if it's screw-in, and incandescent.) Reason: The "light" made from this bulb actually comes from the glowing of a fillament, which glows at a frequency that emits EVERY color (essentially "White.") What they do is introduce a dye in the glass part of the bulb to reduce the majority of every color OTHER than Violet / Ultraviolet. The end result is that you wind up with a VERY hot bulb which generally doesn't produce much UV light because it's all been converted to heat. All told, you're getting less than .1% (1/1000th) of the light based on how much electricity you're putting in.
So, that leaves:
- Mercury Vapor (aka: Flourescent) bulbs
- LEDs
LEDs are probably the most expensive, AND they don't give the best results. (Remember: Even super-bright white LEDs only put out a few watts AT BEST, and cost upwards of for the privilege!)
Mercury Vapor (aka: "Flourescent") bulbs will give you the most blacklight output for the least cash.
Of course, the PURPOSE of the bulb has to be considered in where to buy one. Looking for big ones (like, to light up a dance club?) Home Depot carries those. Looking for LEDs? Check out http://www.blacklight.com/items/GGL60SUV
For more information, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_light .
HEY! ONE MORE THING! BE CAREFUL!!! Excessive Black Light exposure is like being out in the summer sun getting a tan. Tanning can be dangerous because of the UV rays that strike your skin, and can cause skin cancer. Same thing holds true for Black Lights. Be safe!
Hope that helps!
Does anyone know someone who has had Stage 2 of Squamous Cell Carcinoma?
My father-in-law was diagnosed with this type of cancer and I would like to know more about. So if you or anyone else know more about this kind of cancer Please reply! Life expectancy, risks, surgeries, complications, etc. My father-in-law refuses to have surgery because he saw his son undergo surgery for a different kind of Cancer and he passed away anyway.
First of all, squamous cell carcinoma isn't just a blanket cancer. It strikes many different organs including skin, lips, mouth esophagus, bladder, prostate, lungs etc. So. where is this cancer? The site makes a difference but the most important thing is, how early was it caught. You're asking question that his doctor knows because we don't know him. Ask your spouse, it's their father. Life expectancy is great when caught early. but like I said, since we don't know him, no one can possibly tell you what treatments he will have, how long he's has, if surgery is needed or not. Again, blanket answers won't do it. So ask your mother-in-law, your spouse, other in-laws because without his permission, the doctor won't tell you anything, Which is why you're asking here I suppose. Well, I wish him luck and good health.
I just realized you wrote that he refuses surgery because of what his son went through. I wish someone could get it in his head that his son was an isolated case and doesn't mean the same will happen to him. Why do people do that. They jeopardize their own health because of someone they loved who didn't fair well. If you can, tell him...not everyone can handle diseases the same way. We don't know why his son died, but why risk his life on purpose and leave a family that loves him? He has other children right? I just don't get it. My family has been haunted with cancer for generations. To my knowledge, no one refused treatments if someone else died of the same cancer or similar instances. Gosh, we'd all be dead if that's the case. Try and get through to him. Surgery that can save his life and he's refusing...don't get. I wish him the best, I truly do.
what is a universal symbol for cancer awareness?
ive knew so many people to die of cancer ...all different kinds and i want to get a cancer awareness tattoo but i cant find somthing to represent alll kinds of cancer ...can you help me ?
it is the logo next on the top left corner of this page
What kind of engineer makes big batteries?
My mom tells me stories about her uncle who died of cancer when I was little. She said he was an engineer who made/designed big industrial batteries and owned a company. But she didn't know what kind of engineer he was. Are there different kinds of engineers? What are the kinds that make big batteries.
He could have been almost any kind of engineer. Chances are that there was a team of engineers working on the project. To design an advanced battery, you need electrical, mechanical, thermal, test, manufacturing, safety and many other kinds of engineering disciplines. In addition, you need somebody to deal with suppliers, customers, government regulators, etc. There is no way to do all that alone.
Many engineers work in specialized fields that do not perfectly fit into fixed types. Even many graduate studies may be in multi-discipline areas of engineering. And, often enough engineers end up in management positions where they do not do any engineering.
Why is there cancer for different parts of the body?
Skin cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, etc. Why does cancer attack a specific part of someone's body?
Also, people get Lung Cancer from smoking, and people can also get Skin Cancer from too much sunlight. How could you get the same disease from two totally different kinds of sources?
Cancer isn't foreign in your body .. cancer is your own DNA . .your own cells that have mutated. Cancer cells were once NORMAL cells. Cancer can occur in any living cell in your body . . any cell . . breast cells, liver cells, brain cells, eye cells, skin cells, tissue cells, muscle cells, bone cells, spinal cells, vaginal cells, penile cells, blood cells, urinary cells, uterine cells . . any cell in the human body can mutate and become malignant. So . . even though you may never have heard of this . . there are at least 200 different types of cancer and at least 200 more subtypes of cancer. Skin, breast, and lung cancers are just more 'common' so you have heard of them before . . but cancer can occur anywhere inside or outside the body . . any age . . both sexes . . and any cell in or on your body.
Although most cancers are named for the location in the body in which the cells originate . .Cancer isn't always named this way . . there are other cancers in which the name of the cancer comes from the type, shape, or even color of the cell . . here are just a few types of cancer that you may never have heard of because they are less common than breast or lung . . but they are just as deadly:
Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma, Astrocytoma, Carcinoid tumor, Desmoplastic Infantile Ganglioglioma, Ewings family of tumors, Gastointestinal stromal tumor, desmoplastic small round blue cell tumor, Medulloblastoma, Mesothelioma, Neuroblastoma, Rhabdomyosarcoma, Wilm's tumor, Fibrosarcoma, Ependymoma, Oligodendroglioma, Esthesioneuroblastoma, Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia, Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma, Chondrosarcoma, Alveolar Soft Part Sarcoma,Epithelioid Sarcoma, Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors, Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor to name a few.
What colors represent the different kinds of cancer?
For example: pink represents breast cancer.

Gold: Childhood Cancers
Grey: Brain Cancer
Green: Kidney Cancer
Dark Blue: Colon Cancer
Yellow: Liver Cancer
Purple: Pancreatic Cancer

Orange: Leukemia
Periwinkle: Stomach Cancer
Lime Green: Lymphoma
White: Lung Cancer
Lavender: General cancer awareness
What make pancreatic cancer so different from other cancers?
From everything that I have read about pancreatic cancer it is uncurable. Breast cancer, leukemia, and other kinds of cancer can be cured/brought into remission and I was wondering what is so different about pancreatic cancer that does not allow this type of cancer to be cured/go into remission?
Pancreatic cancer can be treated for cure under very specific conditions. It spreads by local invasion and via lymphatic channels. If it is caught early prior to invasion in the local vasculature, it can be treated for cure via several procedures - Whipple (pancreaticoduodenectomy), Total Pancreatectomy, or Distal Pancreatectomy. A major issue is catching it early. The symptoms of this disease early on are usually no symptoms, vague abdominal pain, mild discomfort. It is hard to detect. There is also no good screening that is cost effective. The reason for this is the cancer is not that common, and the tests available are not that cheap. This makes for a very inefficient screening method. The ones out there currently that can detect pancreatic cancer include CT scan of the abdomen and Endoscopic Ultrasound. Both of these tests have their own drawbacks. CT scan of the abdomen involves radiation that may set you up for a cancer. Endoscopic ultrasound requires sedation, a specialist (gastroenterologist), and has risks of perforation. Also the tests need to have a high degree of sensitivity (meaning that there is a high number of people who have the disease also test positive). Endoscopic ultrasound is being used more for symptomatic pancreatic cancer, but I do not know of studies used for screening the general population.
Another issue is it's proximity to other organs. It is near the duodenum, stomach, inferior vena cava, aorta. It is also a part of the biliary system and liver. It can spread to many important organs easily.
There is some increased hope on the horizon as new chemotherapy drugs are being developed. Dr. Vickers at the University of Minnesota is doing clinical trials on a new medication that will hopefully help with treating the disease.
Cookie exchange party at my house to raise money for cancer. How can this be a success?
Okay so, I work with the American Cancer Society and we're having a small get together type of thing at my house to raise money.
It's a cookie exchange and we're making people pay 5 bucks at the door and having them bring cookies. Then we're all gonna try all the different kinds of cookies and watch a Christmas movie, listen to Christmas music, and just kind of chill .
I want this to be low cost and fun.
Any ideas?
Depending on the number of people you are having, you might consider a blind vote on the best cookie, and offer a door prize worth or so to the winner. Put the votes in a hat and count them. Another possibility is to solicit door prizes at local stores, like gift certificates or physical prizes from their inventory. Remember anything they donate can be written off on taxes, and this is almost the end of the year. Sounds like fun.
what are the different types of surgeons and what do they do?
hi im doing a project for school and i want to be a surgeon when i get older. but i dont know all the different kinds. so if you know any will you let me know and tell me what they do?? ok thanks!
Cardiothoracic surgeon
Cardiothoracic surgeons treat diseases of the chest wall, gullet, lungs, pleura and heart. Cardiac surgeons limit their practice to the heart and its major blood vessels. Thoracic surgeons specialise in chest surgery but do not perform heart surgery.
Colorectal surgeon
Colorectal surgeons specialise in the surgical treatment of disorders of the lower intestine (the colon, anus and rectum). Examples include treatment for cancer, ulcerative colitis, twists of the colon causing obstruction, or investigate bleeding or other symptoms. Colorectal surgeons also treat hernias, piles, fissures and fistulas and rectal prolapse.
Ear, nose and throat (ENT) surgeon
(also known as an otorhinolaryngologist from the Greek words for ear, nose and larynx)
ENT surgeons operate on disease of this part of the body (eg the tonsils and adenoids, the nose and nasal sinuses, tumours of the throat, and sometimes the salivary glands and the thyroid gland).
Endocrine surgeon
Endocrine surgeons specialise in the surgery of diseases of the hormone-producing glands (eg the thyroid, and the adrenal glands or the pancreas).
Neonatal surgeon
More specialised than paediatric surgeons, neonatal surgeons operate on very young babies up to the age of one or two months old, including premature babies. They treat conditions such as congenital obstructions of the gullet, bowel or anus, urinary obstruction or reflux, or abnormalities of the spinal cord such as spina bifida.
Neurosurgeons operation on the skull, brain and spinal cord (including operations for slipped disc). Neurosurgeons also undertake operations for bleeding inside the skull caused by conditions such as head injuries, aneurysms, brain abscesses, tumours and swellings of the pituitary gland.
Obstetrician and gynaecologist
A surgeon who specialises in the care of the pregnant woman and her foetus (obstetrics) and womens conditions, especially those affecting the reproductive organs (gynaecology). Obstetric surgeons work includes normal and abnormal childbirth, Caesarean sections and termination of pregnancy. Gynaecological surgeons operate on the uterus, cervix, ovaries and associated organs and structures, and are involved in the treatment of fertility.
Opthalmologists undertake surgery of the eyes, eyelids and bony surrounds of the eye (the orbits). Examples of an ophthalmologists work include cataract operations, lens implants, corneal grafts, treating ocular injuries, squints, diabetic retinopathy and rodent (malignant) ulcers near the eyelids.
Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon
Sometimes called a faciomaxillary or an oromaxillofacial surgeon. This specialist holds qualifications in surgery as well as in dentistry. Oral and Maxillofacial surgeons perform operations on the head and neck not included in ENT, ophthalmology or neurosurgery (there may be some overlap). Oral and maxillofacial surgeons operate on tumours and cysts of the face, jaw, tongue and salivary glands, or after accidents or sports injuries to this part of the body. They also treat congenital or developmental disorders of the skull, facial bones and jaws, including cleft palate.
Orthopaedic surgeon
Orthopaedic surgeons specialise in bone and major joint disease. Their work includes treating fractures, performing hip and knee replacements, examining the inside of the joints (arthroscopy), operations for back problems and correcting abnormal foot or leg development in children (e.g. club foot). Some orthopaedic surgeons specialise further to become experts in hand, knee, shoulder or spinal operations.
Paediatric surgeon
Paediatric surgeons treat surgical conditions in children up to the age of 14-16 years, such as hernias, undescended testes, congenital abnormalities of the gut, kidney or urinary system, and childhood tumours.
Plastic and reconstructive surgeon
These surgeons deal with surgery of the skin and soft tissues all over the body. The skills of plastic and reconstructive surgeons are required for serious burns and skin grafting; reconstruction after accidents or cancer; removal of warts, moles or tattoos; removal of excess fat from the very overweight (including liposuction); cosmetic surgery of the nose, eyelids, face, lips, ears, breasts; repair of tendons and damaged joints in the hands; and skin and soft tissue repairs in large wounds. Surgery carried out simply to improve appearance is called cosmetic surgery.
Upper gastro-intestinal surgeon
Upper gastro-intestinal surgeons specialise in operations on the stomach (and sometimes the gullet), hiatus hernia, biliary system, pancreas, upper intestines, and the appendix.
Urological surgeons
Urological surgeons treat problems in the urinary system (eg kidney and bladder stones and tumours, enlargement of the prostate, disorders of the penis, testis or scrotum).
Vascular surgeon
Vascular surgeons operate on the blood vessels (ie arteries and veins) for conditions such as blockages or dilations (aneurysms) in the major arteries in the abdomen or legs. They also operate for conditions such as varicose veins or complications of venous thrombosis, and carry out bypass grafts in the abdomen or lower limb. Vascular surgeons may also undertake major and minor amputations of the lower limbs, and microsurgery on small blood vessels (eg in reconnecting a severed finger).
You might want to change up the words and stuff a bit. If it's for a project, you could lose marks if you take it like this because this came straight from the source. It could be copyright infringement too =)
Good luck
Are there other ways to get sufficient protein without eating lots of meat?
Do I have to eat many different kinds of food in one day to get the same protein I would get from eating a piece of steak or chicken? Just curious. I'm on the fence about whether to become vegetarian.
"Are there other ways to get sufficient protein without eating lots of meat?"
"Do I have to eat many different kinds of food in one day to get the same protein I would get from eating a piece of steak or chicken?"
No, but you can.
Only you can decide why you will or will not become a vegetarian - no one can give you reasons why - you have to decide your own reasons for yourself.
Foods that have protein, besides meat, are beans, nuts, seeds, legumes, tofu, spinach, potatoes, peanut butter, peas, almonds, flax seed, black beans, lima beans, kidney beans, navy beans, cheeses, milk, eggs, yogurt, whole grains, popcorn, quinoa, buckwheat, oatmeal, etc.
Protein is made up of 20 amino acids, and 8 of these need to be supplied by diet.
A food with all 8 amino acids is called a "complete" protein.
This includes eggs and dairy and soybeans.
Stuff like nuts, pasta, potatoes, legumes, cereals, and rice does not usually have all 8 amino acids - so it is "incomplete".
We should aim to get 10-15 % of calories from protein.
In fact many people actually eat too much protein and there is really no such thing as a protein deficiency as long as you are eating enough foods and don't live in a third world country.
It is also a common misconception that vegetarians have to meticulously combine protein foods to get the balance of amino acids.
So intentionally combining proteins is unnecessary.
Quinoa [pronounced "keen-wa"] is a complete protein - has all 8 essential amino acids - and calcium, potassium, zinc, iron, magnesium, and B vitamins. It is gluten free.
Buckwheat is also another complete protein - like quinoa - but it also has rutin which aids circulation and helps treat high blood pressure. It also has iron and B complex vitamins. Also gluten free.
"The soybean is the most nutritious of all beans.
Rich in high-quality protein, it is one of the few vegetarian foods that contains all eight essential amino acids that cannot be synthesized in the body and are vital for the renewal of cells and tissues."
"Soy is one of today's healthiest foods. Rich in minerals, particularly iron and calcium, it is also low in saturated fats and it is cholesterol free. It has the ability to help reduce osteoporosis, blood pressure, and blood cholesterol, and there is evidence to suggest that it can help reduce the risk of cancer."
"Although soybeans and products are nutritionally beneficial, they are also common allergies and can provoke reactions such as headaches and digestive problems. Avoid eating excessive amounts of soy, and always cook sprouted soybeans before use."
Why do we mainly only hear about breast cancer?
I ask this only out of curiosity, not complaining or anything. But always thought it was kinda strange that breast cancer gets its own awareness month and marathons while theres many more different kind of cancers out there that do not get as much publicity. I was just wandering if there was some kind of reason for this
Tarkarri is right, it effects 1/8 women. There is a pretty good chance that you will or someone you know will have to deal with this sometime in your lifetime. It also happens to such young women, many of them mothers of young children. The point in the awareness is to help with early detection and give more people a chance to live a cancer free life. Your chances of surviving early stage Breast Cancer are high if it is detected early enough before it has had the chance to spread. I am currently 38 yrs old, wife, mother of 4, no family history and diagnosed end of August with Stage IIA Breast Cancer (It had spread to my lymph nodes already). I have been through surgery, port placement, 2 rounds of chemo (6 more to go), will need radiation and possibly more radical surgery. Trust me, there is absolutely nothing "sexy" about anything I am going through. My diagnosis has not only changed my life, but that of my family and extended family. I am currently in the fight of my life and determined to join the long list of Breast Cancer Survivors! Hopefully my story will help someone else someday and bring awareness to self-breast exams (that's how I found mine) and the importance of being screened. Being diagnosed with cancer changes your life and being given a second chance really makes you want to go out and make a difference. I know my family feels just as passionate as I do too! I know the money raised from many of the walks/marathons not only goes towards research, but also goes to help people who don't have insurance. They provide free screenings and financial assistance to those in need. Breast Cancer is complex and actually is broken down into many different types, I didn't even know this until I was diagnosed. They have just recently found some of this out and it has helped them know how to treat and block the hormones etc that fuel some types of Breast Cancer. Hopefully with enough research they will find a cure for this type of cancer and others as well.
How do I remove yellow brassiness from my hair to achieve white hair?
It is a very pale yellow and I have used many different kinds of purple and violet toners to remove the yellow, but they just don't work. My hair is still pale yellow! I want white hair, even if it was slightly purple I'd be happier...
Also my hair wasn't dyed blonde, I bleached it to reach the color it is currently.
Call the 1-800# found on the box of dye or email them, (to find #, go online & search the brand if you don't have the box) they're the hair color experts they can advice you best.
Playing with chemicals is not like playing with clothes, there are penalties for playing chemicals in the lab. Even hair color experts at the salon are not rocket scientists, they do a bang up dye jobs to their clients or their own hair.
You can do one of two things, to remove most of that dye. Links have been moved, might have to type them out.
1. By using Tide detergent with shampoo
2. By shampooing you hair mix with a bit of Dawn.
Here's an example what hair stripping will do to your hair.
It is worst than hair dyes. "I accidentally dyed my hair this awful black, stripped it, and now it is this crunchy crispy mess!"
Hair strippers are chemical treatments which are intended to strip out artificial color pigment with less risk or damage to the hair. The chemicals used are called reducing agents.
Certain 'metal' strippers containing sodium sulphoites are sold for reducing hair dyed with metallic dyes, as these dyes react violently with tint stripper containing hydrogen peroxide-the subsequent reaction may cause so much heat that the hair gets dissolved.
Google hair dyes & cancer also. There are those who tan & smoke all their lives & do not get cancer, but there are those 2nd hand & 3rd hand smoke who do and are currently on oxygen because they can't breath or have cancer. Same with hair dyes.
Here's a new article I found re: henna, which is supposed to be better for you than reg. box dye. It's a good read!
Example of one who's hair is falling and stopped growing:
"my hair had been bleached many times and can't grow past a certain length
its also falling out . i stopped bleaching it.
i just need to add lenght! but if i can stop it from falling out..that be great too"
I know hair. I have over 4 decades of hair know-how. I have silky, shiny, soft, smooth very healthy hair down to my knees. Previously damaged by perming & dyeing in the 80's & 90's. I've known people in their 30's whose hair stopped growing from ironing their hair in the 70's.
How Can I Overcome Hypochondria?
I was recently dianosed with anxiety. I've been taking my Celexa daily. In the last 2 weeks, I have freaked over several different kinds of cancer and bacteria. Today, I had a headache for about a minute and before lunch one of my ears made a ringing sound for a couple seconds. Of course, I googled these symptoms and they were signs of brain tumors. I immediately freaked out. I am 25 years old. PLEASE tell me if these are symptoms of a brain tumor and what the other symptoms are. I am so scared. I have no family history of cancers, except my grandmother had kidney cancer.
Medicine, Therapy, and Exposure. Make sure that you are taking the proper medicine and the proper dose. Do you have a therapist? If you do, ask them about Exposure Therapy. They will probably send you to the doctor to have a CAT scan to help rule out the possibility that it could be a brain tumor or cancer. Good luck!
What kind of cancer did Hatsune Otonashi have?
This female character is from the anime, Angel Beats. Those of you who know this, what kind of cancer did you think Yuzuru Otonashi's little sister have? Because there are many different kinds of cancer.
According to the anime, it was stated that she came down with a cancer in epsiode 7. However, they werent specific with what type of cancer it was, as she was last seen on her brother's back- slowly passing away. From the first time watching the anime, I had especially paid very close attention to every insignificant little detail for no odd reason and had remembered it ever since 0.0
What happens if you take an excessive amount of pills everyday?
I have a friend that is depressed and just found out the other day that she takes random pills, about 10 of different kinds and just swallows them. Shes been doing this for two weeks straight supposedly, and Im gonna talk to her mother tomorrow. Eventually will she hurt her organs so bad that it can cause death? She hasnt had her stomach pumped, so are toxins still damaging her?
Random pills... I'm assuming that you mean things that are not prescribed for her. Very dangerous, and not just over time. I take three small pills every day to suppress cancer. The dosage is very high, and someone with a normal metabolism doing the same thing would probably be dead within minutes. Even if she's taking things prescribed for her but at random, that's like playing Russian roulette. Please see that she gets help immediately.
Can you go to a uroligist to be checked for different kinds of cancer?
Can you go to get a check up, where they would search all parts of your body to see if you have any types of cancer??
Oncologists are the type Dr that checks for all types of cancer. Urologist just check for cancers related to urinary tract. If you suspect that you might have cancer then go to your internist or general practitioner and ask them if you need to be seen by an oncologist. Most times the internist can do the basic tests that will let you know whether or not you need to see an oncologist and for about one fifth the cost. Most oncologists or urologists will not see you anyways without a referral from another Dr.
Are there different kinds of cancer, or are they named only due to the site they invade?
I know about small cell/large cell, but my mom said my grandmother had two types of uterine cancer, one was a very rare form and the other , a super fast growing one.. Is she just mistaken?
Cancer is not just named for their location but also for the type of tumor cell they have. In general there are four major types of cancer cells:
Leukemia - cancer of the blood
Carcinoma - most common, organs in body
Sarcoma - rare, bone and soft tissue (fat, muscle, etc)
Lymphoma - common, cancer of the lympth nodes
Brain tumors are in a somewhat different category and can be benign, malignant, and still be serious.
In general there are over hundreds of different types of idenfified cancers. Bascially, any cell in the human body has the potential to become cancerous. Some cancers are exceedingly rare, some cancers are predominately childhood relatd, other cancers affect only the elderly, some are genetic, some are caused by the environment (asbestos), and some cancers have no known cause at all.
Cancer is also staged and the tumors graded according to how much cancer is present and how abnormal the cells look under a microscope. A stage 1 localized tumor is easier to treat than a stage 4 cancer that has multipled and spred throughout the body.
It is very possible that you grandmother had two types of uterine cancer, especially if she relapsed. Relapsed cancer has a way of mutating and becoming almost a different cancer which is why chemotherapy can suddenly stop working for a patient.
Which sign is most likely to be attracted to people with unconventional beauty?
Which sign is most likely to be attracted to people who aren't what society would label as "beautiful"? People with a different kind of beauty.
Thanks in advance.
Cancer for sure. As a female cancer, I tend to fall in love with a man's mind, soul and character! Beauty fades but ones mind, souls and character will never fade!
how do I know what nutrition to take that wont console each other out?
I take different kinds of vitamins, but I wont to know which ones may console each other out?
Hi, John.
That is a lot to know and try to understand.
Fortunately, we don't have to try and figure that out because it's all done for us with the Reliv nutritonal supplements. All the guesswork has been removed.
Reliv International is 21 years old, trades on the Nasdaq, has several products patented by the US government and has been written about in business magazines such as Forbes and Business Week. The company is based in St. Louis, Missouri and operates in 15 countries and growing.
The nutritional supplements help the body to heal, as well as for prevention. Has helped the body to heal itself of cancers, immune system disorders, cardio-vascular diseases, and much more. There are doctors also involved in this business because the products work.
The 3 basics to take that will cover all your basic nutritional needs are Classic, Innergize and Fibrestore.
Check out the website and contact me if you're interested. I can also connect you with others involved in the business in the same location you are in, as this business and company is worldwide.
Is the flavored water the same or just as good for you as regular water?
I'm talking about three different kinds of flavored water:
1) like if I just put one of the kool-aid or any flavor packet into regular bottle water then is it still as good for you as drinking the plain water?
2) I have not drunk these in a long time, but those waters that fizz up like soda and they are still clear, and have like 0 calories, fats, and basically everything else. Is that still basically water.
3) and like the flavored Dansai waters.
Be careful about drinking those flavored waters, some of them contain aspartame which has been linked in studies to cancer, brain tumors and panic attacks. I drank diet soda for a year with aspartame in it and I am still trying to recover from the panic attacks. Just read your label carefully and make sure theres not a Phenylalanine warning. This site talks about the dangers of it.
How many people are actually taking anti-depressants out there?
I have a close friend who works with a pharmacuital company that markets different kinds of medical products. He recently explained to me that although nobody admits depression, A LOT of people are on prescription drugs to deal with depression. I am in favour of medication for depression, I believe that it's an essential move to a better life. But why do so many people condemn this and frown down on it? Don't get me wrong, I support those who have the courage to take anti-depressants, I think it's a sign of maturity.
1. 國內各法律系的申請級分數為多少?and指考?
2. 哪些學校較有特色(教授,校風...)?將來工作機會要多?
3. 考這方面科系....數學真的很重要嗎?
and anything else-information wise- is all good!
Your friend is right. There are many people out there on anti-depressants and just as many more who SHOULD be but won't. I have been on them on and off since I was about 23 and I am 32 now. I am getting ready to go back on shortly and I will be taking Celexa. It isn't a sign of weakness it is a sign of strength to admit you have a problem with depression and seek the help you need. Depression is a disease, like diabetes or cancer, and you have to seek medical treatment to get better . End of story.
what are the chances of me getting cancer like my relatives?
If cancer (any type) has been common in grandparents, great grandparents etc what are the chances that i will get some kind of cancer when i am older? Even when i live a healthy life and have not/do not smoke or drink?
There are hundreds of different types of cancers that have no genetic link.
Only 5% of cancers have a genetic link.
The biggest risk factor is AGE, so the way to avoid this one is to die young ......... not good!
The next biggest risk factor is ENVIRONMENT. This includes smoking, alcohol consumption, diet, weight, exercise, UV exposure, chemical exposure etc. To avoid this one, don't smoke, avoid excessive alcohol consumption, maintain a healthy weight, eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, use sunscrean, and try to avoid exposure to known nasties!
Genetic risk factors are low on the list, and there is nothing that we can do to avoid them.
Take care of your health, avoid the enviromentatl risks and have regular checkups, remember that if you do develope cancer, one of the keys to survival is early diagnosis and treatment. Don't be paranoid, as stress is also a risk factor, but take responsibility for your health, and hopefully age will always be your biggest risk factor!
What is a good book for dealing with cancer?
My mom has been diagnosed with a very rare kind of cancer and I am looking for a good, inspirational, etc, book to help deal with it. More interested in fiction but not opposed to non-fiction. Just looking for some help....Thanks!
The book is more to help me cope rather than her. I am staying positive for her but it's more for the issues I am going through in being a supporter. It's definitely hard and I'm sure anyone would agree, so I'm just looking for some inspiration! Thanks so much!
Recommendations can see the soul chicken soup, the Buddha's wisdom, like this book, because it was for the height and angle of looking at things different, give people the feeling of rainbow clouds are not anti-try.
In addition there are some sites of cancer is introduced, it is recommended you want to help to you
Does any kind of cancer pass on through the family and for many generations?
I was wondering because my mum's father died of cancer and about 18 years later, my mum's sister also died of cancer so i want to know if there is any connection between their genes passing on. Thanks.
When going to the doctor for a check up they ask if anyone in your immediate family has had cancer. (that would be your parents and/or siblings) It all depends on what kind of cancer these 2 people had. Breast cancer seems to run in families, or maybe it is just that families are more prone to it. There is a lot of research being done in the causes of different kinds of cancer but, so far as I know...there is nothing definitive.
How many people do you know have CANCER or have had Cancer?
Any kind of cancer.... God knows there are plenty of different kinds.... Just close your eyes and count.... then tell me the magic number..... I will tell you mine.....
I know 42 people that have had cancer....some are fighting it....some are dead.... some have beat it.... some have beat it only to have to fight again.... so please whats your number?
For the record.... My mom is a three time cancer survior, and my mother inlaw was just told she has a brain tumor that is untreatable and that she has less than a year to live. Both grandmas and one granfather died from lung cancer. I work in a dental office and my pacients seem to be dropping like flys.
It would have to be around 40 people.
It really hit home when one of them was me.
Thank God, I'm still here to tell about it.
Best wishes
How many types of lice did they find in bob marley's hair when he died?
I just heard they found like ten different kinds, and see the possibility. is it true?
none at all because he died of cancer and had lost his hair after chemo therapy.
How would you know if you had cancer?
I have always heard that early detection is important for successful treatment. But, I have also heard that by the time symptoms are noticable and severe enough to send you to the doctor, many cancers are already advanced.
What can be done about this? How can cancer be detected before it is advanced? Is there some kind of cancer screening that people do as a part of their regular physicals? Is there one test that can detect many types of cancers, or does each type have a specific test? Do you recommend getting such tests?
Thanks for your answers!
With over 200 different types of cancer and just as many subtypes of cancer it is extremely difficult to detect all of them. There is no overall blood test or overall screening that will detect all types of cancer possibilities.
You can check yourself for breast lumps . . but that won't help you detect a brain tumor. You can test your blood for prostate cancer but that test won't tell you if you have bone cancer. Simply put . . there is no overall screening which will detect all forms of cancer. But there are some things that you can do.
Certain types of cancer are more common in certain age groups. Find your age group and check the types of cancer you are more likely to get.
Some quick examples - Children are likely to have cancers that stem from immature or the primitive cells associated with development. Young children and teens can have a cancer called Neuroblastoma . . . a cancer of the central nervous system.
Teens and young adults - tend to develop hormonal related cancers often associated with growing - ie, teens often get bone cancers, such as osteosarcoma or ewings sarcoma - teens and young adults are more likely to have soft tissue sarcoma (cancer in the joints, tendons, muscles) than older people.
Young adults - Germ cell tumors associated with testes or ovaries.
Older adults - more susceptible to lung, colon, and breast carcinoma. Adults tend to get carcinoma associated with their organs (kidney, liver, lung, etc).
Find out which cancers affect your age group the most and than learn the general signs of that cancer. In young people the types of cancer they have involve unusual lumps or bumps that often appear on the extremities. Young people should be taught to search their entire bodies for lumps . . not just check the breast for females or testicles for males . . but lumps anywhere located on the body. I have known young people to ignore lumps that have grown on their shoulders . . they just think it is odd but they are not alarmed . . and they should be. A lump or bump that begins to grow should be examined immediately. It may be the only symptom that you will ever have until the cancer is very advanced.
So . . for young adults the number one way to detect cancer is by completely examing the body on a regular basis searching for unusual lumps or bumps that cannot be explained. A regular doctors check up is also essential. Many young people avoid going to the doctor because they feel so healthy and consider a physical a 'waste of money'. However, a regular doctor can establish what you are like when you are well . . and be able to compare your past health with the present to determine if there is anything unusual going on.
And, that's about it for early detection . . . check for anything unusual on a fairly regular basis and have well physicals. At the moment, little else can be done.
Is breast cancer different than cancer? Why dont men have as much awareness for prostate cancer?
I always thought cancer was all the same and should all have the same urgency to be treated. What makes breast cancer more important than all other forms?
There are many different kinds of cancer and they all need different types of treatment. Men usually don't develop prostate cancer until they are over the age of 45 but there are exceptions. Breast cancer strikes women as almost any age and is thought to be hormone related. There's presently a big controversy over when women should get a mammogram to detect breast cancer but IMO the sooner the better since it can be very deadly. Prostate cancer is a slow growing cancer inmost cases but still there's the exceptions.
how does someone know if they have breast cancer?
how do you find out if someone has breast cancer? what about skin cancer? how many different kinds of cancers are there?
Some people find a breast lump or notice a change in their breasts, and go to a doctor; if the doctor is concerned, they are referred to a specialist clinic for tests.
Others may have no symptoms, but lumps or other irregularities are discovered by a routine mammogram.
Either way, they only know they have breast cancer after tests, including a biopsy or biopsies, have confirmed it.
FTM: What surgery would I need if I want the cervix removed?
Suppose if the vagina was still there WITHOUT the cervix that's better than it being there...
I read there are different kinds of hysterectomies,
normal one, total and complete, which do you recommend ?
Like, what must be removed in order for me to be infertile and not need pap smears?
Do transmen need pap smears at all before getting any surgery?
That would be a radical hysterectomy. You'd be infertile and still have your vagina.
You'd still need pap smears because cancer cells don't care what gender you are, they just care about comfy places to live, and vaginas are their favourite place. Do yourself a favour and have your junk checked, ok?
I think you'd really benefit from talking to other guys who have done what you're considering. Check out True Selves: http://www.trueselves.com/forum.php
Are there birth control pills without progesterine in them?
I have tried four different kinds of pills. I have vomited with three of them. I am so tired of being sick but I want to make sure I am safe. My doctor told me that progesterone in the pills is what is making me sick. Are there any pills without progesterine or progesterone or whatever?
Also, I do not want to take a pill that can stop my bleeding completely (alothough ones that would "lighten the load' would be okay), or something that can cause me to not be pregnant for up to five years.
Does anyone know of anything?
I think they all have progesterone in them. It is what make you bleed. I've heard that it is not safe to take estrogen without progesterone, because it will cause uterine cancer. That is why women who are going through menopause only take the estrogen-only hormones if they no longer have a uterus. I'm not totally positive about this information, but you can ask any pharmacist, they will know what is in birth control pills and should be able to recommend some others that won't cause vomiting.
If you've always had a buzz cut, how do you know what kind of curly hair you will have if you grow it out?
I am half white and half black so I know my hair will be somewhat curly, but there's different kinds of curls out there. How do you know kind of curls you will have if you grow out your short hair? Is there anyway to determine this so I can figure out if I want to grow my hair out or not?
I'm a male just in case you haven't figured that out.
ROFLMFAO! I am an African American and I used to have a buzz cut. In case you didn't realize it by the way, it's widely accepted that we black males are the only race of men that can get away with buzz cuts and baldness. Other races of men can't get away with them for the most part. We black men have always had a reputation for being the only race/gender that can still be seen as sexy with these types of haircuts because we have the right shade of skin for them. I kid you not. Just look up these fact anywhere online: whites are always said to look like cancer patients when they go bald or have buzz cuts while black males are said to look natural and sexy because of the appropriate darker skin shades and complexions. If you're too lazy to look it up on your own, well here's one source with one simple search: http://www.hairlosstalk.com/interact/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=59585 -- Fact is bald heads and buzz cuts work to our advantage in the black male community while other races of men can't pull them off. This is yet another reason for blacks aging better than whites on top of the skin-related reasons. You see, as people age, we lose our hair. This hair loss from aging will work out for black males while it will be a fiasco for non-black males, particularly white males.
How hazardous is oil painting, really?
I'm taking an oil painting class and when under high stress, my OCD goes haywire. This caused me to become extremely paranoid about painting, more than I was already.
Now that a lot of my stress is going away I feel better, but after learning all the hazards in the different kinds of pigments in paints and everything else, I wonder how bad it really is for you? They say as long as you don't really eat paint or get it on your skin for too long you're okay, but the MSDS sheets always advice to "get medical attention" without really much else information.
So now onto a question that may seem REALLY stupid but I'm genuinely curious, if while cleaning my brushes I splashed the tiniest bit of dirty turpenoid from my jar on my lips, how likely is it that I'll keel over and die? Get cancer? Have my insides melted into goo? Honestly!
I wanted to edit this a little more.. I know that large quantities can seriously injure or kill you, I'm mainly asking when should you seriously be worried?
I'm sure out of all the painters in the world, all the students who don't know any better, all the people who eat and drink and smoke while painting that not all of them get sick and/or die. A little splash of even toxic paint or turpenoid can't possibly be that bad for you, or I'm sure we'd all be going in there with full body protection, including goggles and face masks... so what amount would be harmful if swallowed? A dollop? Half a tube?
'Well I think you are fine, but I wouldn't want to get any of that turpentine in your eyes.
Most things like oil paints need years for people to react negatively. It is usually The fumes from the paint in closed rooms and from the chemicals that you clean brushes with that is not good. So you want to make sure you are in a well ventilated room and don't eat the paint.
It is not a paint to give to young children, but I think that if you take proper care to avoid splashing your eyes, and washing your hands you will be fine.
There is a non smell natural brush cleaner that is a bit more expensive for oil paints you can buy if you are worried. Also a cream to put on your hands that acts like a shield to make paint removal easier.

(WICU) The recent bitter cold made the ice on Lake Erie's Presque Isle Bay perfect for ice fishing, and the thick ice is also perfect for ice boating.
About 50 dedicated ice boaters use the Erie Yacht Club as their base of operations and many of them were skimming along the ice this weekend, aided by light winds and mild temperatures.
The boaters say the speed is a thrill. So is being outdoors in the elements. Recent mild winters have prevented them from enjoying the sport.
Ice boater Dave Heitzenrater said, "The last two years we have not had any ice at all. The two years prior to that we have had very limited ice conditions for ice boating. We got in a few weekends. So this has been a good season so far."
The ice boaters say they never go out alone. And they take safety equipment with them in case of an accident.
