  • Increase in Solar Radiation and Skin Cancer of Pilots

    There has been a recent increase in the past decade of skin cancer among pilots; it is an interesting phenomena. Some say we have only recently noticed this because people are living longer and we are flying more international flights and planes are flying at higher altitudes. If you are a airline pilot or Military pilot check and see if what has been observed relates to your own personal observations.

    It has been noticed that more and more people have red faces than before. Especially pilots, bus drivers, construction workers and even a few of us work outside types. It has been obser ...

  • Hair Loss Factors
    What are the factors that contribute to hair loss? I know I have friends and relative that have suffered hair loss, but they are so different. As I checked into it farther, I found that there are a lot of factors that can contribute to hair loss. Some are natural and others are not caused by natural factors. It seems that there are as many hair loss factors as there are individuals. However, there are some main factors that contribute to a majority of cases.


    Perhaps the most common factor in hair loss is genetics. Likely when you hear the words “hair loss,” you think of male pattern ...

    REGULAR ROOIBOS TEA VERSUS GREEN ROOIBOS TEA

    - ROOIBOS TEA has taken the world by storm. Both fermented and unfermented Rooibos tea are primarily sold as a health drink however, it is also used as a raw material in the cosmetic industry. Green Rooibos Tea is the unfermented version of Rooibos Tea and it has a lighter, fruitier taste than regular Rooibos tea. Rooibos tea lacks the astringent taste of normal tea and green tea.

    - The unfermented Rooibos emerged in response to recent interest in the health benefits linked to the antioxidants found in tea. Green Rooibos extract in pa ...

    Psychosocial aspects of genetic testing for hereditary cancers meeting at Jefferson June 9-10

    While the discovery and identification of BRCA1 and BRCA2 -- the so-called breast cancer genes -- ushered in a quiet revolution in genetic testing for hereditary cancer in the mid-1990s, the accompanying psychological and social issues have taken on new importance as well. The 9th International Meeting on the Psychosocial Aspects of Genetic Testing for Hereditary Cancer will be held June 9, 2005 to June 10, 2005 at Thomas Jefferson University to address such issues.


     

     
     


  • The Prison Mirror (part of Prison Series)
    The true measure of social consciousness is prisons. They tell more about society than any travelogue possibly could. They are the product of ignorance as a tradition and undeniable social regression. Send a law breaker to prison and convert him to a vicious vengeful beast. Then send him back where he came from. Let the taxpayer suffer from his crime. Let the taxpayer pay for his maintenance and conversion. Let the taxpayer support his family. Let his children grow up with no father. See if they dare follow in his footsteps. Let the taxpayer pay for any feeble attempt at his rehabilitation. Le ...

  • Causes of Hair Loss
    Hair loss, in both men and women, can be a difficult matter to face. Most of the time, the individuals who are dealing with hair loss focus solely on the prevention/treatment of hair loss rather than the origin, which may aid in the prevention/treatment of hair loss. Although hair loss causes vary from person to person, there are a few main factors that cause hair loss, such as heredity and aging.

    In men, the most common causes of hair loss are heredity, hormones and aging. These contribute to the potential for men to lose hair. In women, some common causes of hair loss include poor cir ...

  • How to Grow Bamboo
    Bamboo is a mysterious and elusive plant that baffles taxonomists who try to contain it within a botanical class and gardeners who try to contain it within a limited garden space as they learn how to grow bamboo. For many years, bamboo was thought to be a primitive grass but recent DNA testing has shown it to be one of the most highly evolved forest grasses. There are over 1200 forms of bamboo that grow in a broad spectrum of color including the familiar green and gold as well as burgundy, blue and even black grasses. Some varieties of bamboo can grow up to a foot a day and ultimately reach 13 ...
