Skin Cancer

This Friday, the start of the Memorial Day weekend, is also "Don't Fry Day," a time for skin-safety experts to remind Americans about the hazards of overexposure to sunlight. Melanoma, the potentially deadly form of skin cancer, is the most common cancer among young adults in their late 20s, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the National Council on Skin Cancer Prevention, which joined forces to provide life-saving tips on sun safety. The main cause of skin cancer: overexposure to harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays.
"Many people still do not realize that unprotected sun exposure can lead to skin cancer and other health problems," said Gina McCarthy, assistant administrator for EPA's Office of Air and Radiation, in an agency news release. "Simple steps, such as using sunscreen, putting on sunglasses or wearing a hat, can protect us and our families, while still enjoying the great outdoors."
Skin cancer, the most common type of cancer in the United States, affects more than 2 million Americans each year -- more than breast, prostate, lung and colon cancers combined, the EPA said. Every hour, one American dies from skin cancer, the agency noted.
Although UV rays are dangerous year-round, the risks are greatest in the summer months when people spend more time outside, McCarthy said.
To limit exposure to harmful UV rays, experts suggest you:

Cover up. One of the most effective ways to reduce exposure to the sun's harmful rays is to wear a shirt, hat, sunglasses and SPF 15+ sunscreen.
Find a shady spot. It's best to stay out of direct sunlight during the peak hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Be aware of the UV index. Before engaging in outdoor activities, check the UV index to identify the most risky times for overexposure to the sun.

Children who are successfully treated for cancer are at greater risk of developing mild to severe gastrointestinal problems down the road, a new study finds.
Researchers from the University of California, San Francisco analyzed the self-reported gastrointestinal (GI) problems of 14,358 patients who survived at least five years following treatment for cancers such as lymphoma, leukemia, brain tumors or bone tumors.
More than 40 percent experienced some type of GI problem -- including ulcers, esophageal disease, indigestion, polyps, chronic diarrhea, colitis, gallstones and jaundice -- within two decades of their treatment, the investigators found.
Moreover, people diagnosed with cancer at an older age and who had to undergo more rigorous therapy (chemotherapy, radiation, surgery) were more likely to experience long-term GI issues, according to the study in the May issue of Gastroenterology.
About one in 500 young adults in the United States is a survivor of childhood cancer, the study authors noted in a UCSF news release.
"While physicians continue to learn about the long-term consequences of pediatric cancer and its therapy, it is essential that we provide comprehensive follow-up care that appropriately addresses the complications cancer survivors may experience," lead study author Dr. Robert Goldsby, pediatric cancer specialist at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital and director of the UCSF Survivors of Childhood Cancer Program, said in the news release.
"These are serious issues that can have a real impact on a person's quality of life," Goldsby added.

World Book

Reading books for the pleasure of it doesn't often make the national news. So, lots of people knew about this event and were ready to scoop those volumes out of my hands as soon as I hit the streets.

1,000,000 free books to be given away? I'm not sure that the titles made any difference. Lots of people were determined to get a copy, any copy. Some were blatantly acquiring quite a collection.

And while it was totally inspiring and interesting to talk to lots of people about books and reading and writing that night, I was more interested in surprising people who either didn't know about the event or who don't read books.

I had a few surprises myself. When I asked one man if he'd like a copy he yelled the loudest NO I have ever heard in my life. I responded with the quietest ok I have ever heard in my life and thankfully, we walked off in different directions.

The Big Issue sellers on the main street in town, were delighted because they had heard about it on Radio 4 and thought they had missed their chance because they were busy working. One lady told me she didn't want to read about Jesus. I didn't like to tell her that I don't think he's in the one I was giving.

All the others seemed genuinely pleased and surprised to receive a book out of the blue. I was as well, when someone insisted that a "giver" should receive a book too. I came home with a volume I haven't read by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Love in the Time of Cholera.

Whatever the critics say, there was a buzz that night as if someone had struck a spark for literature. And I Tuesday, 1 March 2011

World Book Night

It was very exciting to go to my local bookshop and pick up a crate of books today. I'm a "giver" in this Saturday's World Book Night which is basically a massive book give away. Here's the link to all the info.

Click!

I couldn't wait. Had to open the box and just take a look. I've chosen one of my favourite poets, Seamus Heaney's collection to give out in the hope that more people might start to enjoy poetry, especially if it is placed in their hands for free.

So, if you hear someone reciting on the back seat of the last bus home, it might be someone who finds themselves with a copy of this at the weekend.

Also in May, it's our turn to nominate an orator for GENERAL INTEREST's lecture series at the SOUP KITCHEN on Spear Street, Manchester. General Interest is the radically-inclusive-community-art project of two of our favourite people in the history of the world and the brains, hands and eyes of the irrepressible MUSEUMS PRESS,Jess Higgins and Matthew Walkerdine. We are working on something pretty special for this and will tell you more as it transpires. If you haven't got it yet we highly recommend you purchase their latest opus 'MUSEUMS THREE' which is comprised of 2 x newspapers, 1 x risograph print, 1 x photographic print and 2 x booklets one of which consists of three interviews (with Simon Joyner, Ethan Swan and David Bailey) conducted by one of us (R L Perry) via gmail chat.

Old Pictures

When we were visiting J's family for the holidays, her Dad gave her a bunch of old pictures of her Grandfather at the old Atlanta Zoo. He was the zookeeper there for over 30 years.

looking down

did I mention we were on the 14th floor at the beach? and that I am deathly afeared of heights....

Conversion Diary

Jen over at Conversion Diary hosts Seven Quick Takes.

1. I want to say sickness abounds in our house, but it's more like blahness. We're not really sick, and we're not really well. Is it terrible that I wish it would just go one way or the other?

2. I am totally irrevocably in love with my life. My husband, my kid's and all that that entails. It is hard,(at times) to be sure, but mostly I am just overwhelmed by the love of God and all that He has entrusted me with. I am also reminded of the extremely generous, and Holy man He has given me to walk this path to sanctification with.

3. My Mom has been cancer free for overr 6 years now. I am so thankful for that. What else can you say!

4. The science fair has reared it's ugly head again, and all I can say positive about that is that I am thankful that my son is doing a project with friends, and the other parent's are helping out. I love team work...except when I'm cleaning my bathrooms. I just have my own way of doing that particular job. :-)

5. I have really been struggling with a lot of rejection lately. I know that I have been this way for my whole life, but sometimes it gets the best of me. I want to write a whole post about it, but don't know quite how to do that yet. Still, it's good to have a husband who can pray for me and with me and also help me to see that (sometimes) it is my perception. I choose to believe that. It doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt though. Alot!

6. I am frustrated that there isn't any kind of "real" Catholic and/or NFP friendly OBGYN in my town. My doc actually told me the other day that my cycle could be off because of the stress of the holidays. It's funny that it has been the same for the last 6 months. I just don't think they want to figure it out, they just want to put you on a pill to "regulate" you. Ugggh. Let's be honest: #6 could have it's own post.

7. God is good, all the time. All the time God is good. Can I hear an Amen? This one is true everyday, no matter what happens. I know it's true, and He has been faithful to show that to me whenever I have really needed it. Sometimes Jesus just gives us a "kiss" for no other reason than to show us that He loves us, and He is there. Try looking for different ways He's done that for you today.

Furnish the bathroom

If you have a big family, it may be difficult to furnish the bathroom since every family member may have different needs and preferences. Your parents may prefer a bathtub while your children may prefer a shower enclosure. In reality, however, it is not so difficult to meet all the family members' needs, and to install a shower bath in the bathroom is the best way to satisfy everybody's bathing needs.

A shower tub is usually composed of two parts, namely, a sprinkle-nozzle and a bathtub. It is very easy to use and it saves a lot of space. If you have a big family, usually you have a lot of things to put in the bathroom and therefore you may need a large cabinet or a number of racks or shelves. If you have both an enclosure and a bathtub in your bathroom, you may not have enough space to put other things, so for this reason a multi-functional tub can really save a lot of space.
With a big family you also need to satisfy the different bathing needs of different family members. Some may prefer convenience while the others may prefer coziness. If you buy different bathing tools for different family members, you may spend a huge amount of money. In this light, having a multi-functional bathtub is surely the best way to cater to different needs of your family members.

Firstly, canvas printing is very expensive when compared to normal printing methods a photographer would use to print his photos. Printing on canvas is a very exacting process which can easily destroy the canvas if not done properly, therefore a skilled technician is needed. Besides, he should have a technical knowhow of printers that do canvas printing. Canvas printing is a readily accessible service that is performed at many modern photographic shops. Canvases are great pieces of art so they require a lot of care taking from the owner. Most often, only landscapes and portraits are suitable for rendering on canvas, limiting your canvas options. In addition to canvas printing another unique and appealing way to present your images is <a href="http://smartpress.com/offering/print-backlit-graphic-online/">backlit printing</a>. Canvas printing can be a pleasant and rewarding experience for experienced and novice photographers alike. A canvas is quite different from most kinds of paper that are used for printing photos. Usually, canvas paper is richer in texture and gives the entire picture a good and layered feel to it. Since canvas painting and portraits are a time honored tradition, many customers want their family portraits printed on canvas to give them the traditional look the the seek to convey to these photographs. It could be beneficial to your canvas and graphic design efforts if you referred to a <a href="http://blog.smartpress.com">graphic design inspiration blog</a>. Nowadays, most photo shops and photo studios have taken to canvas printing to give the photo a better and richer look. Another benefit of printing on canvas is that the results are very long lasting and your image can be preserved for hundreds of years. This is not an exaggeration and most people know that this could happen. We have seen portraits of most kings and queens done on canvas paper, because it is the most durable and long lasting of the lot. A photographer would always have a fantasy that each of his masterpieces should look like a real painting. Canvas printing helps to realize that dream. A photo printed on canvas results in rich and vibrant colors which enhances the appeal of the photographic. Canvas printing is the ideal method if you want to give your photos a richer feel.
