4 Tips For Getting The Most Out Of Your Technology Investment
How many times have you purchased new software or hardware, and avoided the help menu or user manual? Experts reason that about 90 percent of all features included with software go unused! Much of this comes down to lack of training for individuals using the technology ? they use what they know and need most, and avoid anything that would require study or practice to implement. It s human nature to take the path of least resistance, but with a little motivation you could better benefit from the money spent on technology for your business.
Instead of letting your technology investments continue on underutilized, here are 4 tips for getting the most out of your technology dollars:
1. Put the client in the driver s seat of communication.
You can improve the quality of customer service offered by your company through the use of simple technology. The more connected you are to your clients, the happier they are with your work. Use technology to give your clients a way to initiate discussion with you, either through blog interaction or a discussion forum. Set up instant messaging so clients can contact appropriate staff members as necessary. It s simple technology, but will result in improved client retention, repeat customers and better communication.
2. Create a business culture of continuous improvement.
One of the most amazing aspects of technology is how quickly it is updated and improved. Just when you think you have the best of the best, new technologies and processes are created in order to improve productivity. Even in the sometimes mundane office environments, new ideas will enhance efficiency and productivity. Encourage staff and consultants to let the new ideas flow ? continuous improvement is the key for making the most out of your technology.
3. Take advantage of training opportunities.
If the cost of sending staff to training courses is a bit much to bear, and you re unable to conduct monthly training seminars on your own ? consider bringing in vendors and experts whenever a new version of software is released. You can also have managed service providers deliver training virtually as it is needed, in order to keep your staff up to date with the programs and tools used in the office.
4. Internal email newsletters with tips.
Most businesses recognize the value of sending newsletters to their clients to keep in touch and establish relationships, but what about internal newsletters among staff members? Send a weekly email to your staff with a single technology tip that explains how to do something that will improve their productivity or make their lives a little easier. Keep it fun and add a cartoon or a quick quiz to keep the staff looking forward to their weekly newsletter. Your ideas for topics can come from training and seminars you attend, or from questions staff ask the IT department. If one person doesn t understand something, there are probably a few others who also don t understand but aren t speaking up about it.

Carbon Capture Industry To Create 100 000 Jobs In The UK
Carbon Capture Industry To Create 100,000 Jobs In The UK
In the light of the 2010 pre election Budget, which focuses on economic recovery and industrial investment, the government unveiled its multi million pound Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Industrial Strategy. Chant?l du Plooy takes a look at the CCS scheme, exploring the benefits it could hold for Britain?s future
?Massive growth opportunity?
It is no secret that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions pollute the atmosphere and contribute significantly to global warming and climate change. Through the development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) initiatives, the UK could confine the CO2 produced by sources such as fossil fuel power plants and store it underground.
According to the IPCC special report on Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage, it has been estimated that CCS applied to a modern conventional power plant could reduce CO2 emissions into the atmosphere by as much as 80 90 .
Energy and Climate Change Secretary Ed Miliband has therefore identified the CCS sector as an industry of great potential.
?CCS presents a massive growth opportunity for the UK. We have a strong, established and skilled workforce in precisely the sectors needed to get CCS deployed at scale. And we have some of the best potential sites in Europe for CO2 storage under the North Sea.?
The energy secretary believes that investment into the CCS sector could enhance the UK?s economy by ?6.5 billion a year and will create sustainable jobs for 100,000 people by 2030.
The government?s CCS plan will involve intensive research in order to develop strategies to place the UK at the forefront of ground breaking carbon dioxide capturing technologies. This will be funded by a ?90 million pot set aside in April 2009.
Strategy
In recent weeks the government awarded two power companies, German E.On AG and Iberdrola SA?s Scottish Power with undisclosed amounts of money from the CCS strategy?s funding to study carbon capturing technologies. The funding will pay for 12 months of engineering and refining plans to build power plants with CCS technology.
According to the UK Press Association, the organisation that puts the best plans forward will receive government funding to build the UK?s first CCS coal fired power plant at either Kingsnorth in Kent or Longannet in Scotland. The title holder will run the plant from 2014 for 15 years.
In the meanwhile, Ed Miliband branded Yorkshire and Humber as the UK?s first low carbon economic areas for CCS.
?Yorkshire and Humber is well placed to see the benefits from the jobs that investment in CCS can bring, other regions will too, he said.
According to the energy secretary, the region encompasses the UK?s largest CO2 producers as well as academic expertise; and it is uniquely positioned near potential storage sites.
As a result, the government has announced that it will invest ?6 million into a CCS joint venture between Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE), Vattenfall of Sweden and UK based Doosan Babcock. Together with three universities, the partnership will create the largest combustion CO2 capture pilot plant in Europe at SSE?s Ferrybridge Power Station in Yorkshire.
The ?20 million Yorkshire project will be co funded by the Technology Strategy Board, the Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) and the Northern Way partnership.
Concerns
Although CCS technology is a potential way for the country to reach a low carbon future, the carbon benefits still need to be established.
The IPPC report also indicated that in order to capture and compress CO2 at a newly built coal fired plant, more energy will be required and it could increase fuel needs by 25 40 .
However, more recent reports from the American Coal Utilization Council, unveiled that with appropriate research, development and deployment, sequestered coal based electricity generation in 2025 won?t need as much energy.
Another cause for concern is the storing of CO2 in the sea where a risk of increasing ocean acidification could be possible.
Pledge
The Carbon Capture and Storage Industrial Strategy is aimed at researching and identifying any potential risks associated with the technology.
Not only will the endeavour place the UK in the lead with regards to CCS strategies, but it will also boost jobs, stimulate the economy and drive the country?s low carbon future.
What?s more, the government has pledged that no new coal fired power stations will be approved without CCS technology, which could suggest that the idea of CO2 capturing is here to stay.

Car Wars: Toyota Vs. Godzilla
Car Wars: Toyota Vs. Godzilla
Watching the latest Toyota Tundra commercial, and realizing what it really means, reminds one of watching Mike Tyson fight when he was young...there is a creeping feeling of dread and inevitability concerning the outcome.
Having identified the next automotive frontier to conquer, Toyota has commenced the process of dismantling their opponents, and--in the very best Sun Tzu (legendary general and author of 'Art of War') tradition--they are using their own tactics against them. In the long run, it may not matter that U.S. automakers have been building great trucks for decades and still do.
Because 'The Great American Truck' has long been marketed as a masculine icon, nearly all previous advertising campaigns have been an effort to out-macho the next guy. There is a rich tradition in the truck-commercial world to have the gruffest, manliest voice talk about the product in an inspiring way, but Toyota has dangerously upped the ante with this latest Tundra voice-over actor...this guy makes Sam Elliott sound like a giggling schoolgirl.
As soon as American ad guys realized that folks knew that Toyota was building many of their cars and trucks here in the States, they switched to an old-time 'History of America' pitch. You know..."We have been building these since they were flying over Pearl" and the like. But these little sideshows are really just a distraction from the real game: At some point, it will come back to the product-- the price, the quality, the cost of operation, the rate of depreciation...the money.
In Toyota plants across the world, a single worker is expected to stop the assembly line if he thinks there is a problem or if he believes that there is a way to improve the process. In the U.S., labor unions are quite effective at fostering a variety of things, but creative thinking and individual initiative ain't among 'em. Not to say it doesn't happen, couldn't happen, but it is difficult to imagine one of our guys stopping the assembly line. Well, you know, without being hit in the face with a baseball bat.
The U.S. automakers most directly in the line of Tundra fire are obviously Ford and Chevy. This might actually be a good thing, because if people take the time to put all their options through the paces, they may find (to their surprise) that there is little--if anything--to choose between makes.
But what if we find that we are unable to fight them in the quality arena? That our powers of persuasion are blunted by superior voice-over actors? How soon will it be before we start thinking the unthinkable...that awakening their ancient foe from his Mothra-induced slumber might really be our last, best hope? And what message would that send to our children, when they ask--and they will ask--if there was any other way we could have competed for this business? "Daddy, why did we wake the monster"?
Oh...the humanity!

Car Insurance Myths Explained
Car Insurance Myths Explained
It has been a legal requirement to have car insurance since 1930. To drive any motorised vehicle on a public road, you must have a minimum of third party insurance. Preferably, and as long as it is not prohibitively expensive because you are a new or young driver, the best insurance to go for is fully comprehensive. But despite the fact that insurance has been with us for over 80 years, there are still plenty of people who do not understand aspects of their policy. This can cause them a big problem if they have to make a claim and suddenly find that because they've neglected to tell their insurers everything or have chosen the wrong policy, their insurance is invalid or inadequate. So let's have a look at the five most commonly held beliefs about car insurance.
Excess fees
Number one of the list of 'getting it wrong' on car insurance is the belief that you won't have to pay the excess if an accident is not your fault or your car is stolen. This is not the case. The excess is an amount agreed by you at the time you take your policy out and is the first part of any claims cost that you agree to pay if you make a claim. The only way that you may get your excess back is if your insurance company recovers all of the costs from the third party involved in the accident. As most car thieves are not caught, it is extremely unlikely that you will get your excess back if you claim for vehicle theft. Many people agree to a higher excess fee when taking a policy out to reduce their premiums. Remember, only do this if you are comfortably able to afford to pay out that amount in the event of a claim.
Driving other cars
Many years ago, insurance policies frequently allowed drivers to drive any vehicle under the same insurance policy. Rather than insuring the vehicle, old insurance policies insured the driver. However, things have changed and now it is the vehicle rather than the driver that is technically 'insured'. Some fully comprehensive policies do allow you to drive another car with the owner's permission, but remember that in most cases you will only have third party insurance if you drive someone else's car. It is vital to know both the details of your own insurance and the person whose car you are using. If you are involved in an accident and only have third party cover you could be liable for your own damage. And that could be expensive.
The named driver 'scam'
Although it is perfectly acceptable for there to be named drivers on insurance policies, some people have tried to take advantage of this. The trick is to insure the car in another person's name (who may be more experienced or have a better insurance record) and then putting the actual regular driver down as the 'named driver'. This is most common with younger drivers, who may insure the car in their parent's name and then add themselves as a named driver. This slightly dodgy manipulation of the insurance policy can mean much cheaper insurance for an inexperienced driver. However, insurance companies are not stupid, and they have realised that this is an increasing problem. One quick check with DVLA will tell them who the registered keeper of the vehicle is and they'll know instantly that the 'named driver is actually the primary user of the car. This could invalidate your insurance and making a claim could prove to be very difficult indeed.
Personal effects
Many people wrongly believe that car insurance also covers any personal possessions in the vehicle such as wallets and handbags. While there may be a small provision for personal effects, it is usually limited to ��100. So trying to claim for a laptop or expensive mobile phone that may have been stolen from your car is not going to be covered by your car insurance. The best advice here is don't leave valuables in your car, particularly easily stolen objects such as high-end tech (including satellite navigation systems), wallets or jewellery.
A conviction means no insurance
Finally, there's the very common myth about how a conviction means it's impossible to get insurance. Although a serious conviction like drink driving or dangerous driving may put you into a much higher risk category as far as the insurer is concerned, it does not mean that you are forever blacklisted. Specialist insurers are now dealing exclusively in high-risk drivers, and that includes those with drink-driving convictions. Yes, you probably will have to pay higher premiums. But just like any other motorist, the longer you keep your driving record clean, the lower your premiums will become. The best way to find a specialist insurer if you do have convictions or points on your licence is to use a comparison website. These useful sites give you an at a glance list of insurers who can provide you with coverage. It's the easiest way to get a good deal on your car insurance.

Car Finance In Australia ? Don?t Go With The Dealership Until You Have Checked Out Other Car Finance.
Car Finance In Australia ? Don?t Go With The Dealership Until You Have Checked Out Other Car Finance.
The mistake many buyers make when they are looking to purchase a new car is to settle their car finance with the dealership. Certainly there may be times that the car finance offered by the dealer is competitive but as a general rule you will find a better car finance package through other financiers in the car finance space. All too often, buyers of a new car are swept up in the emotion of driving that beautiful vehicle out of the car lot as soon as possible and think that the quickest way to do this is to sign up the car finance with the dealer. The fact is that you can now apply for car finance on-line and have a response that will deliver the car to you as quickly as the dealer?s car finance arrangements.
I recently decided to search the internet for my car finance and was surprised to find how easy it was to obtain an approval. There are a couple of ways of proceeding with your car finance enquiry.
1. You can go on-line and simply fill out an enquiry form which should basically include how much car finance you are seeking, the purchase price / estimated value and model of your motor vehicle, is it new or used? You should also include in your enquiry for car finance ? your current income. Completing an enquiry for car finance takes a matter of minutes and as a general rule when I did it, I received a response within 48 hours. This option suits those who know what they are looking for but aren?t in any huge hurry for their car finance.
2. You can also go on-line and complete a full application form for car finance. This is obviously more comprehensive and requires you to spend more time but basically you will be providing the same information that would be required of you when you sit down with the finance representative of the dealer and complete a car finance application with them. So, take the initiative and put in a little effort ? then reap the rewards of good competitively priced car finance. I suggest that as soon as you are in the market to purchase a new or used car, then get on-line and check out what is required with an application for car finance. Get the information together and sit down and complete the car finance application yourself. You will be surprised and feel pretty good about yourself when you have an approval for the car finance and go to the dealer ready to negotiate because you know you have your loan approved and that once you determine the sale price (bargain hard!) then that red corvette (we wish!) will be yours in a flash!
3. A lot of new car buyers do not realise that they can utilise the services of a ?bulk buyer? (for want of a getter word) when negotiating the purchase of their new car. Many parties who provide car finance also offer a buying service ? it is at no cost to you ? they receive a commission from the dealer. I used these services when buying my Holden Astra in Sydney ? I ended up having it delivered to my front door from a car dealer in Wollongong at a $2500 saving on the price.

Car Finance Becoming Increasingly Scarce In Australia
Car Finance Becoming Increasingly Scarce In Australia
The world economic global crisis has had a huge and negative impact on the car finance industry in Australia because the major suppliers of car finance here have recently withdrawn from the car finance market. GE Money and GMAC who are believed to have had at least 60% of the car finance market in Australia have suddenly withdrawn from this market. While GE Money has continued to play in the credit card market where it has been increasing interest rates in Australia (as have many other lenders) in October it announced that it would no longer fund car finance or their third party mortgage distribution channels.
GMAC also announced that it was withdrawing from car finance because the cost of funds was too high or funds for car finance were simply not available. Because of the devastation caused to the finance sector as a result of the irresponsible sub-prime lending in the USA, investors who would normally buy securitised home loans and car finance loans for a good return on their money are now afraid that they may lose money on any such investment. As a result those who are willing to invest in car finance loans or home loans are seeking a much higher rate of return because of the perceived increase in risk. GMAC has advised the market that their cost of funding car finance is now too high and until car finance rates come down they are out of the market. GE Money appears to have withdrawn from the car finance market permanently in that it has put off a large number of staff in both Australia and New Zealand and has announced to the market that it is exiting these areas of its business.
The new car industry will be feeling the ramifications of these decisions in that without readily available car finance, dealerships will find it difficult to reach new car sales targets. Unfortunately the Australian public, or at least those who have been buying new cars over the past 20 years have become used to being able to get 100% car finance on any new car purchase. New car finance is normally structured to include the car finance amount plus a residual or balloon amount which is paid by the borrower when he or she sells his or her car in 3 or 5 years time. The borrower makes monthly repayments which are enough to repay the car finance amount over the 5 year period and when he sells the car the price he achieves is generally sufficient to repay the balloon or residual amount.
It is likely that when buying a new car in 2009 you may well need to come up with a saved deposit. Not something people who have sought car finance in the past have had to worry about. The car finance will still include the car finance amount plus a residual but the general consensus is that if you are in the market for a new car then make sure you have some savings because the car finance is unlikely to be sufficient for you to complete the acquisition.

The world economic global crisis has had a huge and negative impact on the car finance industry in Australia because the major suppliers of car finance here have recently withdrawn from the car finance market. GE Money and GMAC who are believed to have had at least 60% of the car finance market in Australia have suddenly withdrawn from this market. While GE Money has continued to play in the credit card market where it has been increasing interest rates in Australia (as have many other lenders) in October it announced that it would no longer fund car finance or their third party mortgage distribution channels.
GMAC also announced that it was withdrawing from car finance because the cost of funds was too high or funds for car finance were simply not available. Because of the devastation caused to the finance sector as a result of the irresponsible sub-prime lending in the USA, investors who would normally buy securitised home loans and car finance loans for a good return on their money are now afraid that they may lose money on any such investment. As a result those who are willing to invest in car finance loans or home loans are seeking a much higher rate of return because of the perceived increase in risk. GMAC has advised the market that their cost of funding car finance is now too high and until car finance rates come down they are out of the market. GE Money appears to have withdrawn from the car finance market permanently in that it has put off a large number of staff in both Australia and New Zealand and has announced to the market that it is exiting these areas of its business.
The new car industry will be feeling the ramifications of these decisions in that without readily available car finance, dealerships will find it difficult to reach new car sales targets. Unfortunately the Australian public, or at least those who have been buying new cars over the past 20 years have become used to being able to get 100% car finance on any new car purchase. New car finance is normally structured to include the car finance amount plus a residual or balloon amount which is paid by the borrower when he or she sells his or her car in 3 or 5 years time. The borrower makes monthly repayments which are enough to repay the car finance amount over the 5 year period and when he sells the car the price he achieves is generally sufficient to repay the balloon or residual amount.
It is likely that when buying a new car in 2009 you may well need to come up with a saved deposit. Not something people who have sought car finance in the past have had to worry about. The car finance will still include the car finance amount plus a residual but the general consensus is that if you are in the market for a new car then make sure you have some savings because the car finance is unlikely to be sufficient for you to complete the acquisition.

Captivate Customers In 5 Words
Captivate Customers In 5 Words
If you have read many of my articles, you will probably know that I always bang on about the vital importance of customer value. Without having a clear an precise signpost, in your customer language, that evokes an emotional response to solve a pain or fulfil a desire ? your headline will fail.
So I could have called this;
Why most Headlines Suck!
Can you answer that? What do you believe would happen to your understanding of buyer motives if you could answer that question? Can you imagine automatically being able to conjure up a headline that will suck in your buyers, since it arouses their deep curiosity and desires?
How about your desire to succeed at business ? how strong is that? Does it compel you to want ownership of an ability to sell - to motivate others to buy with a reason to emotionally want what you have to offer?
OK ? so what is that reason ? why would anyone really want what it is that you offer?
To give you an example ? people buy copywriting services from 3R, because they have a huge desire to succeed in business and the desire to succeed is even greater than their fear that the expense they incur will not reward them.
So what is your silver bullet, what will compel people to take action to visit you and buy from you ? what will ownership of your offering truly give them, what desire will it fill? Who will have that desire and where will the people who have that desire be and will you be able to reach them?
Of course you can ? you just have to believe it, and when you start believing it, the 5 line headlines will roll of your tongue, and you will write them down and you will use them.
So what is holding you back, if you have not done it already? Do you fear that the compelling reason for ownership is not clear ? do you still lack the ultimate inside knowledge of value for your product ? do you still feel the strong need for an expert to come and feel your value with you to help you express it?
If you must focus on what you do the best, which is creating and delivering your offering to delight your customers and you must seek help now to ensure you have a steady stream of customers, then please do contact me now ? otherwise please try, just go on and try and do it.
You will be amazed ? do you know why you will be amazed?
You will be amazed because the same creative energy that helped you start your business and take the actions that have led you to here, will also power the creative instincts to enable you to write those 5 words.
The 5 words of transformation!
Go on ? write them down now ? or maybe you choose not to!
Either way, you know the vital importance of those 5 words ? so take action ? do it your self or engage someone who, with certainty will assist you in creating what you know must be created.
Give your self some credit ? be your self ? do what you must do and do it now!
Thanks for reading, learning and taking action ? Peter.
P. S.: Don't Procrastinate, take action Now!

Caps Of The New Generation

The brand recognition of New Era and the 59Fifty has resulted in the cap becoming a popular fashion element. The most popular logo used in cap designs is the New York Yankees. Although New Era is rooted in sports heritage as the official on-field cap of Major League Baseball, they've evolved into a brand that can be seen on the runways of Paris during Fashion Week and in hundreds of music videos on MTV.
Along with the 59-Fifthys, the new era also produced other caps such as the 49Forty, 39Thirty, and 29Twenty. The 49Forty is a fitted, lower profile cousin to the 59Fifty, and has a more casual, collegiate look. The 39Thirty is a strength fit cap, and is used by MLB as the batting practice cap. It is 62% polyester and 38% wool, and has a soft mesh feeling. The 29Twenty is an adjustable, unstructured cap.
Apart from the "59-Fifty" caps, new era company?s most prominent and recognizable cap is modeled with a flat cap bill. This is the style most popular with urban consumers, who have adopted the style from its prominence in rap hip-hop culture.
The brand recognition of New Era and the "59-Fifty" has resulted in the cap becoming a popular fashion element, particularly reflected in urban hip-hop culture. Among all the 59-Fifthy?s that the new era produces, the most common and popular cap is the New York Yankees 59FIFTY Flat bill cap.

Capitalize On Your Sports Instruction Potential
Capitalize On Your Sports Instruction Potential
A lot of sports facilities owners find they have a great marketplace, all the right people, and state of the art systems, and yet find that their facilities are not booked solid. People tend to prefer just a few slots a day, and for much of the rest the instructors and facilities are left idle.
Most of the time, this isn?t due to a lack of interest in a facility, it?s a lack of facilitation. Remember that we are living in the computer age. People just don?t like to communicate in the traditional way. The days of the phone appointment are rapidly fading, in favor of the more convenient and less consuming Internet appointment.
Every facility which offers sports instruction would do well to include a program on their website which allows customers to make their appointments online. Incorporating such a program will benefit your business in several ways.
Avoid awkward introductions!
Batting cages, driving ranges, even go kart tracks all have resident professionals who can improve the skills of interested clients. In fact, this area is where many sports businesses make their extra money. If you?re typical, you have several instructors for the same sport, all of whom appeal to clients in different ways.
The problem with using phone appointments to book instructors is that for first time clients (not to mention the person who works your phone lines) getting the details can take a very long time. If a customer goes online, however, all the information they need about an instructor is right at their fingertips. They can check out biographies, potentials, and most importantly work hours. All they have to do is select the right instructor for them and then slot in an appointment in an available space.
Focus on bigger issues
Using a phone only booking system means that you and your staff will often find yourselves tied up on the lines just booking appointments. You might be able to spend your time more productively in other areas, and using an online appointment system will allow you to do just that.
Expand your client base
Have you ever sat around at night, thinking how much you would like a burger, and wishing that your favorite restaurant delivered?
That?s what we call impulsive thinking, and the truth is people have it for just about every business aspect there is. Who knows how many potential clients you are missing just because you don?t have an online presence!
If you were to use an online booking service on your webpage, these clients might be drawn to your business. Instead of thinking, ?Gee, I?d like to improve my tennis game?, but letting the thought pass after realizing working hours are over, potential clients could go to your website, review your successes, and book an appointment all in a manner of minutes.
Finally, people just like to see what?s going on with their appointments. We all worry from time to time that we forgot to book an important appointment. With an online appointment system, clients can double check any time they want to ensure that their lessons have been booked and ready to go.

Cancer Staging: Grasping The Fundamentals To Help You Get An Understanding
Cancer Staging: Grasping The Fundamentals To Help You Get An Understanding
In response to Cancer Analysis UK: "Staging describes the extent or severity of a person's most cancers
based mostly on the extent of the unique (primary) tumor and the extent of unfold in the body."
Why staging is important?
. Staging helps the doctor plan a person's treatment.
. The stage can be utilized to estimate the individual's prognosis (seemingly end result or course of the illness).
. Realizing the stage is important in figuring out scientific trials (research research) which may be
appropriate for a selected patient.
Staging helps researchers and health care suppliers alternate details about patients. It additionally provides them
a typical language for evaluating the results of medical trials and evaluating the outcomes of various trials.
What's the basis for staging?
Staging is predicated on how most cancers develops. Most cancers cells divide and grow with out control to type a mass of tissue,
referred to as a growth or tumor. As the tumor grows, it might probably invade close by organs and tissues. Most cancers cells may also break
away from the tumor and enter the bloodstream or lymphatic system. By shifting by way of the bloodstream or lymphatic
system, cancer can unfold from the primary site to type new tumors in other organs. The unfold of most cancers is known as
metastasis.
The stage of a cancer is an outline (normally numbers I to IV) of how much the cancer has spread. The stage typically
takes into account the scale of a tumor, how deeply it has penetrated, whether or not it has invaded adjacent organs, how
many lymph nodes it has metastasized to (if any), and whether it has unfold to distant organs. Staging of most cancers is
important as a result of the stage at prognosis is essentially the most highly effective predictor of survival, and treatments are sometimes
modified based mostly on the stage.
From the Nationwide Most cancers Institute: General Stage Grouping can also be known as Roman Numeral Staging. This
system makes use of numerals I, II, III, and IV (plus the 0) to explain the development of cancer.
Stage 0 carcinoma in situ.( an early form of most cancers outlined by the absence of invasion of surrounding tissues.)
Stage I cancers are localized to at least one a part of the body.
Stage II cancers are regionally advanced.
Stage III cancers are also locally advanced. Whether or not a most cancers is designated as Stage II or Stage III can depend
on the particular sort of cancer.
Stage IV cancers have often metastasized, or spread to other organs or throughout the body.
Concerns in staging
Correct staging is vital because treatment is immediately related to illness stage. Thus, incorrect staging may
lead to improper treatment. Right staging, nevertheless, can be difficult to achieve.
Staging programs are particular for every type of cancer (e.g., breast cancer and lung cancer). Some cancers, nonetheless,
would not have a staging system. Though different staging methods still exist for some forms of most cancers, the universally
accepted staging system is that of the UICC (Worldwide Union In opposition to Most cancers) which makes use of the TNM system (this stands
for Tumor, Nodes, Metastasis). The TNM system is based on the extent of the tumor (T), the extent of spread to the lymph
nodes (N), and the presence of metastasis (M). A number is added to every letter to indicate the dimensions or extent of the
tumor and the extent of spread.
Childhood cancers are staged using either the TNM system or the staging standards of the Kids's Oncology Group, a group
that conducts pediatric scientific trials.
Since correct staging is so necessary and can be tough to achieve, getting a cancer second opinion to verify right
diagnosis and treatment suggestions could be extremely important.

Cancer?s Comfort Zone VS. The Human Healing Zone
Cancer?s Comfort Zone VS. The Human Healing Zone
Dr. Otto Walburg, a Nobel prize winner, stated that ?the primary cause of cancer is the replacement of normal oxygen respiration with anaerobic respiration.?
Normal respiration in a cell is determined by the normal flow of oxygen rich compounds, and glucose, and mineral salts into and out of the cell. For the cells of the human body to remain healthy they must be in a slightly alkaline, oxygen rich condition. Alkaline compounds, solutions and tissues absorb needed oxygen. In this ?slightly alkaline, oxygen rich? condition normal cells can ?burn? glucose as a cellular fuel.
Cancer cells cannot allow the free flow of oxygen, like normal cells do. Cancer cells can only obtain energy through fermentation of glucose, a conversion process that does not require oxygen. Consequently, cancer cells cannot survive in an oxygen rich, slightly alkaline environment, because glucose ?burns? in the presence of oxygen!
Acidic fluids expel cellular oxygen, cancer cells flourish in an acidic environment, because they?re content to feed on the few available nutrients they make by fermenting glucose inside the oxygen poor, acid rich environment of cancer cells. Normal cells must divide/replicate in order to survive, but when normal cells are in an acidic environment, replication can be very difficult, consequently, cancer thrives in an oxygen poor, acid rich environment, and normal cells begin dying off.
You have an unfair advantage over cancer.
Because you have ultimate control over the foods that you eat! Fruits and vegetables are some of the most alkaline substances available. The FDA already recommends that you should eat 5 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day! When you alkalize your body you cause two significant changes:
1. Your blood and tissues take in needed oxygen again.
2. Healthy tissues do great, but cancerous tissues cannot survive in an oxygen rich environment, and will begin dying off in a matter of days.
Two Key Components in the Daily Diet: Acid Forming Foods and Alkaline Forming Foods.
Most high protein foods (meat, fish, poultry and eggs), and nearly all processed carbohydrates (grains, breads and pastas) and fats are ?acid forming.?
Fruits, high protein vegetables and Free Form Amino Acids are not acid forming, and have no acidic residue, while offering buffering capabilities to the body to help offset acidic wastes.
When working toward re balancing your body pH, you should strive to get a 70:30 ratio of alkaline food to acidic food.
Are you eating anti cancer foods
It?s no secret that consuming a diet high in phytonutrients, antioxidants, Omega oils, dark fruits and vegetables and other good things are a big step in the right direction.
With tens of thousands of anti cancer products, foods and methods to choose from, trying to find a reliable combination of substances that will work to defeat your cancer, can be a serious challenge for the time strained consumer.
If you?re like most people you just want to find a simple list of healthy anti cancer foods and supplements that you can acquire cheaply and use at your own convenience. And a plan that helps you destroy cancer the fast efficient way. This is your lucky day!
Green Powders
Wheatgrass and Barleygrass powders are high in protein, and each supplies most of the crucial supplements for preventing and reversing cancer. It takes more than a pound of vegetables to equal the incredible concentration of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, plant enzymes, protein and fiber found in five teaspoons of most green powders. If you?re eating right, just one teaspoonful of green powder in one liter of water daily, will provide all you need to balance your body, and begin to put cancer behind you.
Alkalizing pH Drops
Add alkalizing pH drops (from health food store) to your green powder drinks. The drops will increase the benefits of both the water and the green powders, making them still more alkalizing, oxygenating, and pH balancing. The pH drops act as oxygen and electron catalysts, bringing more of both into your blood and thus to all the cells of your body, which need it for optimum performance. Add 16 drops to each liter of water or green drink.
Balanced pH
The acid alkaline balance of the fluids in the body determines which kinds of organisms will thrive in it. Cancer has been shown to flourish in a 7.0 and lower pH. While a pH range of 7.1 to 7.3 (fasting saliva test) allows the body to heal. An estimated 95 of the U.S. population is too acidic (less than pH 7.0) in their body?s tissues and fluids.
By now, you realize why it?s so important to create at least a normal pH.
Go to a health food store and get a pH test kit (litmus paper or strips), and follow the instructions. If you are too acidic (normal body pH is between 7.1 to 7.3), you should eat 7 10 servings of fruit and vegetables a day to get out of the acid range and into the alkaline range. Balancing the pH in itself is a HUGE step toward reducing your risk of cellular damage and terminating the cancer cells, all in one easy step.
Cancer doesn?t have to be a death sentence!
If you?re like most people who have been diagnosed with this mysterious disease, you probably believe you have no control over such a complicated situation. Most people?s natural reaction to a cancer diagnosis is to just let the pros handle it. After all this is what they do?
Well, let?s take a minute to think about that, the medical community has had millions of encounters with this disease. But the statistics prove that what they?ve chosen to do about cancer is a BIG statistical loser in their so called ?war on cancer?!
Cancer rates in 1900 were just 3 of the population and now it is 25 of the population. The World Health Organization released a report entitled; ?Global cancer rates could increase by 50 to 15 million by 2020.
The overall increase of all cancers from 1950 to 1995 was 55 percent. Overall five year survival rates for all cancers have remained virtually static since 1970, from 49 to 54 percent.
In 2000, more than 1.2 million new cancer diagnoses are expected, and some 550,000 (1,506 a day) Americans will die from the disease.
In 2008, a total of 1.4 million new cancer cases and 565,650 deaths (1,549 a day) from cancer are projected to occur in the United States.
We all know that no one wants to be exposed to the horrors of unnecessary surgeries, radiation and having toxic chemotherapy substances injected in them. But, did you know that doctors who were interviewed at a recent convention, stated that if they were diagnosed with cancer, 90 percent of them said that they ?would NEVER undergo chemotherapy themselves, and would not recommend it to any of their family members either!? Not very reassuring is it? Would you submit to procedures that most doctors wouldn?t want to have done to them? I wouldn?t either!
Real people beating real cancer, it happens all the time!
I?m here to tell you, YES, you can beat cancer, and the best way to get started is by working diligently to oxygenate your cells and blood by restoring them to a normal, slightly alkaline pH!
Oxygen deprivation is only part of the overall picture! Yet, ALL of the other procedures that must follow are useless if you do not alkalize and oxygenate your cells and blood.
The conventional cancer treatment community could have and should be focused on oxygenating your cells and blood in their practice?s, but they don?t do that! Not because it doesn?t work. On the contrary, it works and they know it! And now you know it! And now they can?t make a dime off of you!
You see, they know that if you get well, you go away, they never see you again, and they?ve lost another source of income, to wellness! You?re life is worth more to you and the people you love than all that! Wellness must be YOUR goal!
I could write an article about that subject only, but the fact remains, you are not just somebody?s gravy train. You don?t have to settle for barely alive and feeling miserable, when you can have complete and total wellness again!
You can choose wellness as YOUR goal, but it becomes YOUR responsibility to make it happen in YOUR life! Don?t miss out! YOU can do it! But do it NOW! There?s no time like the present, my friend!
Taking Action Steps.
Now that you?ve discovered one of the best secrets of how you can proceed to reverse the oxygen deprivation that is making you sick, you need a plan of action!
What will you do now? When will you do it? And for how long?
How will you know when you?ve succeeded?
Define what success in this situation means to you.
How much of your life will you win back?
Why you want to do something is often more important than the goal itself.
Keep your examples in mind as you forge ahead in your quest for wellness.
You must make a choice about your beliefs, deciding that if you follow this process, you?ll do just fine!
People who have defeated cancer on their own have a commonality of certain aspects:
1. They all have a tenacious desire to live, and
2. an intense desire to be well again, and
3. they hold themselves accountable for what they believe in, and
4. what they know must be done, and they
5. push themselves through the tough times, the
6. dietary changes, and they
7. take control of the wellness process.
8. They keep a positive mental attitude.
9. Fear has no place in their plan. Fear only drains energy.
10. Confidence allows them to stick to the process and do the right thing.
Dietary Changes
I know its not easy to change your diet. I suggest you start by avoiding fast food restaurants. Keep fresh vegetables in the refrigerator and snack on those. Keep fresh fruit on the table, you?ll be better off nutritionally. Juicing them is good too!
Some Words of Caution:
Whether you?re using the conventional or alternative methods, you will find that as cancer tumors break up they can dump a load of acidic residue into the bloodstream, the liver must clean this residue out of the blood. The liver then discharges it through the bile ducts to the intestines for disposal. The liver needs to be cleansed with five liters of water a day during this phase, or it could get clogged with all of the debris. A completely clogged liver could kill you! So see a doctor and get your liver tested. Get check ups weekly and ask your doctor about milk thistle for liver detox.
Also, as more cells begin normal respiration, you will need to supplement potassium into your daily diet. So get your blood potassium levels checked by your doctor weekly also.
Yours in cancer free living!

Cancer Risks And Health
Cancer Risks And Health
Cancer is the second major cause of death in the United States. More than half a million of us to die of cancer every year. Most cancers occur in people age 55 and over. The best defense for many types of cancer is early detection therefore, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, have regular checkups with your doctor and report any unusual symptoms.
Cancer is the result of changes in the genes that control cell growth. In a healthy cell, the genes will tell it when to stop reproducing, to mend any damage or to destroy itself if the damage cannot be repaired. However, a damaged cell will override these messages and continue to reproduce more damaged cells.
While we cannot control all of our risks for cancer, there are some things we can do that will help to lower our chances of getting some of the more common types of cancer.
Skin cancer
The most common type of cancer is skin cancer and the two most common types of skin cancer are squamous cell cancer and basal cell cancer. Squamous cell cancer can spread throughout the body while basal cell cancer usually does not. Both types of skin cancer typically start on the parts of the body that are mostly exposed to the sun such as the face, hands or arms.
Risk factors for developing skin cancer include being fair skinned, a history of spending great amounts of time in the sun, getting many sunburns as a child, and having light colored hair and green or blue eyes.
Sun protection is the primary way to avoid skin cancer. Always use plenty of sunscreen and reapply it every two hours and after sweating or swimming. Also avoid tanning beds and sun exposure between the hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Lung cancer
Lung cancer is the primary cause of cancer death in the United States. Every year or it kills more people than any other type of cancer. When lung cancer begins, there may be no symptoms at all. It can take years for the cancer to progress before any problems are noticed.
Risk factors for developing lung cancer include smoking and being exposed to secondhand smoke, family history and exposure to radon gas.
The best way to prevent lung cancer is to either stop smoking, avoid secondhand smoke and check the radon levels in your house.
Colon cancer
Colon cancer is the second major cause of cancer death in the United States. A major risk factor in developing colon cancer is family history. If there are many people in your family who have developed colon cancer you will probably require regular colonoscopies. The risk of developing colon cancer increases with age. Most people who are diagnosed are over age 50. Other risk factors include a diet that is high in fat and low in fiber, folic acid and calcium.
The primary way to prevent colon cancer is a colonoscopy. If you do not have a family history of colon cancer your doctor may recommend a colonoscopy when you turn 50. If there is a strong family history of colon cancer, your doctor may recommend one sooner.
Family history and environmental factors effects whether or not a person will develop cancer. Although we cannot control the genes that we inherit, it is important to know what environmental factors affect our cancer risks and take steps to change those things so that we can live healthy and cancer free lives.

Cancer is the second major cause of death in the United States. More than half a million of us to die of cancer every year. Most cancers occur in people age 55 and over. The best defense for many types of cancer is early detection therefore, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, have regular checkups with your doctor and report any unusual symptoms.
Cancer is the result of changes in the genes that control cell growth. In a healthy cell, the genes will tell it when to stop reproducing, to mend any damage or to destroy itself if the damage cannot be repaired. However, a damaged cell will override these messages and continue to reproduce more damaged cells.
While we cannot control all of our risks for cancer, there are some things we can do that will help to lower our chances of getting some of the more common types of cancer.
Skin cancer
The most common type of cancer is skin cancer and the two most common types of skin cancer are squamous cell cancer and basal cell cancer. Squamous cell cancer can spread throughout the body while basal cell cancer usually does not. Both types of skin cancer typically start on the parts of the body that are mostly exposed to the sun such as the face, hands or arms.
Risk factors for developing skin cancer include being fair skinned, a history of spending great amounts of time in the sun, getting many sunburns as a child, and having light colored hair and green or blue eyes.

Cancer The C Word: Dealing With Diagnosis Shock
Cancer, The C Word: Dealing With Diagnosis Shock
(Note: the following is excerpted from Cancer: Embracing the Healing Journey, but is applicable to any serious illness or dis ease):
Whatever your diagnosis, whatever your prognosis, simply being labeled a cancer patient suddenly changes your entire world. Your self image changes, you may feel betrayed by your body, or by your concept of God. Or both. You may feel angry, or victimized, asking, Why me? or What did I do to deserve this?
You may feel guilty, like it?s your fault, wondering How did I create this?
The why what and how are not as relevant as the what now?
Although going through a why me? and did I do something to cause this? phase is a natural tendency, I encourage you to rephrase these questions as soon and as often as possible to What can I learn from this? and How can I best support my own healing process?
For most people, the diagnosis of cancer brings up a very deep level of fear. This fear affects you emotionally, mentally, and physically. It sends your mind racing, playing and replaying fear based thoughts which, left unchecked, can lead to chronic anxiety, depression, a sense of helplessness and hopelessness.
This fear can also translate into a host of physical symptoms, including rapid, shallow breathing, increased heart rate, constricted blood vessels, increased blood pressure, tight, tensed muscles, headaches, nausea, gastrointestinal disorders... and the list goes on.
By combining simple relaxation, guided imagery and affirmation techniques, you can profoundly influence your body?s biochemical state, resulting in a general sense of well being and calm. In this more receptive, more emotionally centered state, then, you are better able to receive and respond, rather than react to any information, conditions or circumstances you may encounter. You?re able to begin to move beyond the initial state of shock and fear, and think clearly about what decisions need to be made, and what opportunities this experience may hold for growth and healing on all levels of your being.
In this state, you allow yourself to literally Relax into Healing
###
Notes on Nancy: Deep relaxation is the common foundation of Nancy?s extensive healing work. It is in this state of deep relaxation, when the body is stilled, the emotions soothed, the mind quieted, that one experiences the center of peace within... and it is in this place of quiet stillness, this essence of the being, that optimal healing occurs.
Nancy?s Cancer: Embracing the Healing Journey CDs (widely used in both personal and clinical healing settings) provide gentle assistance in dealing with the initial my world?s been turned upside down feeling that often accompanies a cancer diagnosis. In this double CD set and booklet, Nancy compassionately guides you through many aspects of the journey, including dealing with the shock of diagnosis, being a proactive patient, listening within for your own inner wisdom, embracing all emotions, and enhancing healing with guided imagery, affirmation, and deep relaxation ? all essential elements for optimal body mind spirit healing. Nancy?s been there. As you listen, you will know you are not alone.

Cancer Survival How To Live With The Diagnosis
Cancer Survival How To Live With The Diagnosis
Having learned that you have cancer the emotional upheavals are unprecedented. Anxiety and tension grips you. The treatment and the prognosis are very strenuous and can take a toll on a person s emotional and mental health.
Once you have been diagnosed, deal strength and perseverance. Below are some suggestions that would help in coping with the diagnosis
1 Try to get to know the facts regarding the diagnosis like the cancer type, whether it has spread, the treatments available, the side effects, and prevention after the treatment, treatment schedules, and the genetic viability of the cancer.
2 Do not hesitate to communicate with your doctor and your loved ones. Tell them that you are ready to face and conquer it and that they should be very frank about the progress the treatment and the cancer is making. Try to take help when you are feeling down or lonely and share your emotions honestly.
3 The treatment of cancer deals with radiation and chemotherapy which can bring about tremendous changes in physical appearance. Hair loss is very common and wigs or hairpieces can be used for managing it.
4 Maintain a lifestyle that is healthy and that fills you with energy. Follow a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables that contain antioxidants. Take rest so that your body is stress free to combat the cancer treatment. Try to lead a normal life as much as possible by taking walks, participating in fun activities etc.
5 Your family members and friends would like to help you. It could be their way of offering support during a difficult time. They can help you with chores around the house and preparing meals and you should remember that you would require the help.
6 Prioritize the activities in your life and do away with harmful ones. Try to get closer to your loved ones and enjoy.
7 Live each day as it comes and take every little thing in your stride.
8 Cancer is not contagious and no one near you has any danger of contracting it from you. It is difficult for people to believe this fact and you would come across disturbing behavior from them. Fight the so called stigmas and don t let them dishearten you.
9 Cancer treatments have long schedules and can burn a hole in your pocket. This financial burden would add to the already existing tension about the cancer. Hence it would be wise to look into health insurance options. Sometimes the state provides insurance assistance for certain groups of people.
10 All said and done remember that you have to develop a unique strategy to cope with the cancer yourself. Even with all the help and support your mind should be strong enough to go through it. There are support groups that help people through cancer treatments and they are very beneficial.
Meditation and relaxation techniques can calm your mind and give you the strength to go on with the treatment, in spite of the discomforts involved with a positive mind.
To Your Health!

Cancer Prevention: 5 Natural Foods That Prevent Cancer
Cancer Prevention: 5 Natural Foods That Prevent Cancer
Cancer is one of the major causes of death worldwide. According to an estimate, it is believed that one third of deaths across the world are caused by it. There is a general belief that cancer is a hereditary disease. Though external factors such as chemicals, pollution etc are also believed to cause cancer. Our lifestyle and food habits are major contributory factors of cancer.
The national cancer institute as well as world cancer research fund believes in healthy eating to prevent cancer. The five important foods to be incorporated in our daily diet for preventing cancer are as follows:
Vegetables:
Broccoli, cauliflower, onion, garlic, carrot, sweet potato, spinach, beans, avocado, lettuce, asparagus are some of the vegetables to be included in our daily meal to protect ourselves from cancer. Broccoli, cauliflower, kale contains antioxidants lutein and zeaxanthin which help reduce the risk of prostate or any other form of cancer. Beans, spinach, lettuce, avocado contain folate which is a preventive food for pancreatic cancer. Tomatoes and sweet potatoes are rich source of beta carotene, a preventive vitamin. Vegetables should be preferably taken in raw form as they are richer in nutrients.
Fruits:
Another important food group to be included in our day to day life for avoiding cancer. Fresh, organically cultivated fruits eaten in raw form or extracted as juice prove healthy for an individual. Fruits like banana, grapefruit, orange, papaya, red grapes, strawberries, raspberries; blueberries are few important fruits which help reduce cancer. Papaya is believed to prevent the absorption of nitrosamines from processed food and cultivation soil, which are major cause of cancer. While banana is rich in potassium and red grapes are rich in bioflavonoid; the berries too are believed to possess anti cancerous nutrients.
Fish:
This white meat is rich in Omega 3s and essential fatty acids which act as a preventive measure against breast cancer. They are healthy for our heart and brain. The fish oil is believed to protect from prostate and colon cancer.
Liquids:
drinking lots of water, juice, green tea and chai is essential for keeping our body healthy. Drinking 5 liters of water everyday washes down all the toxins from our body. While vegetable and fruit juices provide essential nutrients and vitamins. Green tea is a rich source of antioxidant. It has been proven by the American institute of cancer research that green tea contains phytochemicals which are believed to stop the transformation of normal cells to cancerous cells.
Soy:
it is a rich source of protein. At the same time soy is also believed to be rich is phytochemicals responsible for prevention of breast cancer. Soy can be taken daily as soy milk, tofu, granules, pulse. Any form of soy proves beneficial except the processed form. We should avoid soy chips rich in salt as well as other processed soy snacks. In fact any form of processed food be it salami, chips, sausages or cool drinks is unhealthy and major cause of different kinds of cancer.

Cancer Prevention: How To Stay Away From Cancer With A Healthy Diet
Cancer Prevention: How To Stay Away From Cancer With A Healthy Diet
Staying fit and healthy should be a mantra of life to prevent all kinds of diseases like blood pressure, diabetes, and cancer etc. cancer is a very serious disease which at times turns fatal if not detected at early stages. The occurrence of this disease can be prevented by taking few measures.
The foremost step to be taken is of changing ones eating habit. Nutritious food should be included in daily meal for staying healthy. Cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, cabbage, Kale, Brussels sprouts which are a rich source of vitamins, minerals and fibers should be included. Tomatoes rich in vitamin c should be taken along with the morning breakfast of eggs, carrot rich in beta carotene has anti oxidant properties which acts on free radicals of the cancerous cells and prevents their multiplication.
Green leafy vegetables, soy, tofu etc should be a part of our meal. However one has to consider that excessive intake of nutrition also leads to cancer hence we must have balanced meal. Vegetables should be taken in raw, boiled or lightly saute form as cookie is believed to destroy the nutritional property of the food.
Fruits are another rich source of vitamins and minerals which have anti cancerous properties. Grapefruits, oranges rich in vitamin C help get rid of carcinogens from the body. Papaya is another fruit which prevents the absorption of nitrosamines from soil or processed food which are cancerous. Fresh fruit juices are also very beneficial. However care must be taken to choose fresh, organically grown fruits. The packaged fruit juices should be avoided as they have unnecessary high sugar are rich in calories and have non existent nutritional value.
Fibrous food such as bran, whole wheat, pulses, apple, and peaches should be eaten daily. This helps avoid bowel, colon, rectum, stomach cancer. Processed foods like bread, luncheon meat, salami, potato wafers should be taken in minimal quantity. These food items are rich in salt and fatty acids. Their nutritional value is zero. They cause obesity which further leads to cancer in stomach, colon, kidney, gall bladder, pancreas etc.
Salt and sugar should be taken in moderation. Excessive sodium intake is not healthy and so is excessive sugar which adds empty calories. Read meat like beef, lamb, and pork should be taken once a week in less quantity. Non vegetarians should include more of fish in their daily diet as it has anti cancerous benefits. Fish oil is also meant to reduce risk of cancer. Water intake should be increased to flush out toxins from the body.
Alcohol consumption should be in moderation as excessive intake leads to oral cancer and cancer of throat, larynx, and lymph etc. smokers should be extra careful and should cut down on smoking.
Being healthy is the most essential thing for a happy living. Few preventions and added care can assure a long life for an individual. Hence one should take care to eat healthy diet in moderation and exercising daily. Binge on junk food but once in a while.

Cancer On The Internet Teleconferencing
Cancer On The Internet Teleconferencing
One of the primary requirements of cancer patients is psychological help. One of the key factors that help in the survival of cancer patients is the will to survive. Patients usually conjure up this will through the support of friends and family. In some cases even this may not help. In these kinds of situations, a support group is effective and it has the potential to make the cancer patient feel good. A constraint in this regard is the unavailability of a support group in the neighbourhood. Cancer on the internet teleconferencing is very helpful in this regard. The patient can get in touch with other cancer patients through the internet and thus forming a virtual support group.
Cancer on the internet teleconferencing can cater to some other requirements of cancer patients too. The unavailability of a cancer specialist in the neighbourhood can be extremely inconvenient as the patient has to travel long hours to meet a cancer specialist. Internet teleconferencing can help to remove this inconvenience. A pathologist can transmit the images of a cancer patient to a consultant through the internet. At the same time, they can discuss the various issues through internet telephony. This application is powerful as the patient does not have to exert which comes as a result of travelling long distances.
Cancer on the internet teleconferencing technology is still in its nascent stages. A study was conducted by the people working in the department of pathology in Cedars Sinai Medical Centre in Los Angeles to test the feasibility of diagnosis via teleconferencing. This study says that it is currently best suited for quick consultations which might be to discuss a minor issue which involves the sharing of a minor specimen. The internet telephony is unreliable most of the times and the pathologist may have to re establish connection every now and then. The images obtained from the biopsies are transmitted to the consultant in real time. This is done by setting up a video camera with a microscope at the transmitter end. The receiver who is the consultant gets the images onto his computer using a microcomputer with net meeting software. Using the internet telephony, the consultant directs the pathologist to move the microscope so that he can see other parts of the image clearly. This way the consultant can provide his diagnosis and treat the cancer patient by providing a list of cancer treating drugs.
Cancer on the internet teleconferencing used for support groups has also met with some success. This is considerably helpful for patients in the rural parts. The tests conducted for assessing the feasibility of such support groups have met with success as participants of such tests felt better after sharing experiences with other cancer patients. These tests were specifically conducted for breast cancer patients. The psychological help such events provided for the women were tremendous and thus reduced the depression levels and stress disorder symptoms due to trauma. The patients were able to discuss about cancer and women?s health issues.
Cancer on the internet teleconferencing has the potential to help cancer patients reduce their suffering by providing timely treatments ad organising support groups that involve cancer patients from all around the world.

Cancer Is Getting Harder To Beat And Avoid
Cancer Is Getting Harder To Beat And Avoid
In recent years, statistical cancer death rates have been showing decreases for some cancers in some parts of the world, which has led some people to optimistically report that cancer is getting easier to beat. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
As noted in ?Hiding the Truth about Losing the War on Cancer?, statistics can be manipulated and often have been by those with vested interests in maintaining the illusion that we are turning the corner, or that a cure is just around that elusive corner, in the decades long and mostly failed war on cancer.
The statistics which tell the real story are those which clearly show that the incidence of cancer continues to grow alarmingly, as does the expected worldwide cancer deaths. Between one in two and one in three people are now expected to encounter cancer in their lifetimes.
According to the WHO?s World Cancer Report, considered to be the most comprehensive global examination of the disease to date, cancer rates could further increase by 50 to 15 million new cases in the year 2020.
Many people, including this author, believe that a great deal of the credit for declining death rates is a result of more people looking outside the failed mainstream therapies box and relying on natural and alternative means to address their cancers. As the aforementioned WHO report also noted, there was ?provides clear evidence that healthy lifestyles and public health action by governments and health practitioners could stem this trend, and prevent as many as one third of cancers worldwide.?
The good news is that, thanks to websites like this one and the writers and natural health advocates who are spreading the good word, an increasing number of people are learning about, and turning to, natural and alternative therapies. The bad news is that alternative, non mainstream, non toxic and non invasive therapies continue to be repressed and misrepresented in mainstream studies. The further bad news is that even those who do learn the truth about alternatives are often finding cancer is getting harder to avoid and beat. Though this article is primarily about cancer, the same is true for heart disease and other major chronic illness, and for pretty much the same reasons: we continue to become exposed to more and more toxins and pollution, live unhealthy lifestyles and eat diets that are less nutritionally sound. As a result, our immune systems and our vitality continue to decline ? and regardless of any treatment, herb or therapy, mainstream or otherwise, it is our immune system, nature?s first line of defense against illness, that is the most important key to beating and avoiding cancer.
People do not beat and avoid cancer nor get other illnesses due to a deficiency in chemotherapy or deficiencies in mainstream medicine. They get cancer and become ill because toxins and diseases beat their immune systems. As data from the CDC and other have shown, our immune systems are becoming progressively weaker, the same as male sperm count is progressively declining. In 1981, Dr. H. F. Pross did a study of the average Natural Killer (NK) count of average Americans. NK count is measured in lytic units (LU), and Dr. Pross found that the average LU count in 1981 was 152. In 1991, Dr. R. B. Herberman did a similar study and found that the LU count had dropped to 135. In 1997, Dr. Gerald See did another study and found the count had dropped to 108. In other words, we are dropping at about the rate of 1 LU per year. Which means that the average LU count in 2009 is likely to be somewhere around 96 ? which would be an alarming drop of 37 in less than three decades!
Other than earlier detection and including some easily remedied forms of cancer that were once considered simply pre cancerous conditions, little real progress has been made by the use of mainstream invasive and toxic therapies of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation all which have been shown to increase the spread of cancer and weaken the body to pave the way for further cancer, particularly the latter two (chemo and radiation).
Most people are likely unaware that virtually all chemotherapy drugs are themselves classified as Class 1 carcinogens! And radiation merely destroys our bone marrow that is the heart of our immune system.
A strong immune system from proper diet and nutrition, a healthy lifestyle, elimination of stress, and proper supplementation and nutrition, is still the best way to avoid and beat cancer, especially when buttressed by herbal immune boosters and cancer fighters. But it takes diligence and effort ? more so now than ever before.
Cancer and the world we live in have changed a lot during the past 50 years and for that reason we do not seem to see the same successes with some of the famed treatments of prior decades, like the outstanding Budwig Diet protocol, Essiac tea, Hoxsey, Gerson, etc. Cancer appears to be getting harder to avoid and harder to beat once acquired. That is likely due to a number of factors.
One problem, and a very big one, is one we will likely have to live with for centuries: the amount of radiation now found in virtually every square inch of the earth s surface as a result of the atmospheric atomic bomb blasts that spewed millions of tons of radioactive material into our environment. Two time Nobel Laureate Linus Pauling warned of millions of deaths and injuries that could be expected as a result of atmospheric bomb tests. He was rewarded by having the State Department pull his passports. A pre eminent Russian scientist and later Nobel Laureate himself, Andrei Sakharov, predicted between half a million and one million deaths for every 50 megatons of atmospheric bomb tests (ultimately the tests of the United States and Russia combined to produce fallout equivalent to 40,000 Hiroshimas). Instead of having his passports pulled, Sakharov received a free trip and vacation from the state ? an exile to a Siberian Gulag for the next 20 plus years, that is.
In addition to the radiation from nuclear bomb tests that will stay with us for ages, we are increasingly being bombarded with microwaves and high power transmission lines, which industry is recently beginning to lose their decades long cover up of the dangers they have known such technology presented.
Add to that the fact that our industrial age has added no fewer than 80,000 unnatural chemical compounds to our environment, less than 1,000 of which have been tested individually in any way for safety and almost none of which have been tested in combination with one another.
Next, you have about 20,000 FDA approved medications (both prescribed and over the counter) which have been mostly poorly tested for safety individually, scarcely tested for carcinogenic/mutagenic short or long term dangers, and almost none of which have been tested in combination with each other. Over 95 of all FDA approved medications have known side effects by themselves. In combination, one can only imagine what short and long term side effects could result ? and one is reminded that many chronic conditions are years in the making. Some cancers, for example, take eight years after they have gained a foothold to grow to the size of a pinhead (after which, the doubling rate increases their size much faster).
Then there are the foods and nutrition we tend to consume (or not consume as the case may be). The food products on the grocers shelves have by and large had the nutrition processed out and additives processed in for added shelf life, flavor, color and texture. The ones that claim to be enriched with vitamins and minerals are enriched mostly with synthetic petro chemical vitamins and crushed rock minerals not natural ones or ones that have been pre digested by plants to be bio available for human benefit.
Our fruit and vegetables are picked early and artificially ripened/preserved with chemicals plus they often contain pesticides and/or herbicides and come from over farmed soils which severely lack the major and trace minerals needed for optimum nutrition. Increasingly, our major food crops are being genetically modified to enable them to withstand more and more of such pesticides and herbicides. Increasingly, vital enzymes and other natural compounds are being destroyed by irradiation to ?protect us? from natural crops.
Our mineral depleted and over farmed soils usually they have just a few petro chemical synthetics added back to the soil which produce the best growth, but lack the best nutrients. Pesticides, herbicides and other chemicals have killed off the vital soil micro organisms needed to convert what minerals do remain to usable forms to be taken up by the plants. Those micro organisms which do remain seldom have adequate time to perform their vital roles thanks to over farming and lack of proper crop rotation.
Today, most of us are deficient in most vital trace minerals needed for optimum health and many major minerals and vitamins as well. Thanks to the totally overboard scares about the danger of exposure to the sun, most of us are woefully deficient in Vitamin D3 instead slathering on sunscreens which block out the beneficial rays, let in the harmful ones and contain carcinogens to boot. Most of us are similarly lacking in iodine, and many are lacking in selenium which, besides many other health benefits, is an important co factor for iodine to be properly utilized. While many people diligently supplement with calcium via milk or supplements, as many as 95 of us are deficient in magnesium and without magnesium being consumed/supplemented on a 1 to 2 or 1 to 3 ratio with calcium, the calcium does not work.
In great part, cancer is a defense mechanism where the cells mutate to protect themselves from a heavy metal, chemical compound, or other irritant/toxin. One of the things they do is form an outer protective shell which prevents the body s natural immune system from recognizing and killing off the cancer cells. Some have observed that this protective layer is getting thicker in many forms of cancer, possibly as a result of all the added toxins and other factors listed above. The end result is that cancer is more hardened against attack and is harder to recognize and defeat by immune systems that are most often in less than optimum condition to begin with.
In addition, the body s great toxin removal organ, the liver, is also often compromised and operating at far less than peak efficiency. Instead of a toxin removal organ, many people have developed fatty livers which are fat and toxin storage organs and which have bile ducts that fail to eliminate toxins but instead serve to recycle them through the bloodstream.
Perhaps the best of all the Mexican Clinics is the one established by Harry Hoxsey s prot?g? and partner, Mildred Nelson, an angel of healing who passed on in 1999. In her later years, she observed that their clinic was still having wonderful results with most forms of cancer, but cancers which once had been able to cured in only three weeks or so were taking up to six month or longer. I believe that what she observed is a perfect illustration of what I outlined above.
My own suggested anti cancer protocol (see ?A Natural Anti Cancer Protocol?) may be overkill for many people. But I think it takes more than just one cancer preventative or cancer fighter these days. That is why the wonderful Budwig protocol, once an almost sure cancer beater and still very successful, is considered an essential part of what I recommend, but far from the ONLY element.
With declining immune systems in an increasingly polluted, poorly nourished, overmedicated and toxic world, cancer is not getting easier to avoid and neither is it getting easier to beat. Cancer may be easier to beat than most people think, but that is only because most people still do not know a fraction of what good diet, nutrition, herbal supplementation and alternative treatments have to offer.
The more people who educate themselves about alternatives to ineffective and toxic therapies, the more that will be saved.

In recent years, statistical cancer death rates have been showing decreases for some cancers in some parts of the world, which has led some people to optimistically report that cancer is getting easier to beat. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
As noted in ?Hiding the Truth about Losing the War on Cancer?, statistics can be manipulated and often have been by those with vested interests in maintaining the illusion that we are turning the corner, or that a cure is just around that elusive corner, in the decades long and mostly failed war on cancer.
The statistics which tell the real story are those which clearly show that the incidence of cancer continues to grow alarmingly, as does the expected worldwide cancer deaths. Between one in two and one in three people are now expected to encounter cancer in their lifetimes.
According to the WHO?s World Cancer Report, considered to be the most comprehensive global examination of the disease to date, cancer rates could further increase by 50 to 15 million new cases in the year 2020.
Many people, including this author, believe that a great deal of the credit for declining death rates is a result of more people looking outside the failed mainstream therapies box and relying on natural and alternative means to address their cancers. As the aforementioned WHO report also noted, there was ?provides clear evidence that healthy lifestyles and public health action by governments and health practitioners could stem this trend, and prevent as many as one third of cancers worldwide.?
The good news is that, thanks to websites like this one and the writers and natural health advocates who are spreading the good word, an increasing number of people are learning about, and turning to, natural and alternative therapies.

Cancer Prevention: 14 Things You Can Do To Prevent Cancer.
Cancer Prevention: 14 Things You Can Do To Prevent Cancer.
The cost of cancer is very heavy for society, any action to eliminate the causes of the occurrence of a type of cancer is a benefit, not only in lives but also economic and social development. Some cancers could disappear over 90 if we could adopt a new lifestyle and eliminating the causes of these cancers.
Cancer prevention is possible. Almost two cancer could be prevented by eating better. Moreover, early detection of tumors can often eliminate tumors before they become malignant (cervical, colon, prostate and in particular).
There are currently three cancer whose origin is certain hereditary: cancer of the retina, kidney cancer in children and bone marrow cancer of the thyroid.
Some illnesses should lead a policy of vigilance; this is the case for polyps (benign tumors) of the colon.
So Let s take a look at what you can do to prevent cancer.
1 Supplies of food and eating habits: Choose a diet mainly based on plant products rich in fruits and vegetables, legumes and other sources of complex carbohydrates and little changed.
2 Maintenance of body weight: Avoid inadequate and overweight and limit weight gain to less than 5 kg in adulthood.
3 Maintain physical activity: If your daily activity is low or moderate plan 1h each day of brisk walking (or similar exercise), and during the week at least 1 hour more intense exercises.
4 Fruits and vegetables: Eat 400 to 800 grams per day of fruits and vegetables throughout the year.
5 Other food based plant products. : Eat 600 to 800 grams per day of a variety of cereals, legumes, root vegetables, tubercules, processed preferably little. Limit intake of sugar and sugar products.
6 Meat: Limit your daily consumption of meat including meats. It is preferable to vary inputs focusing on fresh meat, fish and poultry.
7 Total Oils and Fats: Limit consumption of fat, particularly those from pork and beef. Choose moderate amounts of appropriate vegetable oils.
8 Salt and curing: Limit consumption of salted foods and use salt and table salt. Use herbs and spices to season foods.
9 Storage: Do not eat food that, following a poor conservation (humidity, heat) could be contaminated with mold.
10 Conservation: Use the refrigeration and other appropriate methods so that perishable foods purchased, then kept at home, remain fit for consumption.
11 additives and residues: The levels of additives and residues are regulated so that their presence in food is not harmful. However, unregulated use or inadequate (situation in developing countries) may be hazardous to health.
12 Preparation: Do not eat too much grilled food or the cooking juices. Do occasionally eat meat and fish grilled over a flame, salted or smoked.
13 Dietary Supplements: For those who follow the recommendations outlined above, dietary supplements are probably not necessary to reduce the risk of cancer.
14 Tobacco: Do not smoke. If you smoke, stop as soon as possible. It s hard to stop, but it s really very dangerous to smoke! Indeed, all the food tips less than quit smoking. smoking (cigarettes in particular) is the cause of 95 of lung cancer usually called lung cancer (if not more, because passive smoking has not yet been sufficiently studied).

Cancer Diet
Cancer Diet
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The National Cancer Institute estimates that one third of cancer deaths are related to dietary factors.
So, it is very important for you to make sure you are eating a well balanced diet. Food can act to suppress, block or to transform agents that can cause cancer.
Here are some foods have been have been shown to slow the growth of cancer and give and give your immune system a much needed boost:
1. Greentea. Greentea contains high amounts of antioxidant polyphenols (catechins) that have properties to fighting cancer. Some studies show that people who drink a cup or two of green tea every day may cut the risk of cancer.
2. Garlic
Scientists have discovered that garlic can fight cancer. There are several active components in garlic that have been shown to fighting cancer:
Allicin: A powerful plant phytonutrient that appear to protect the body against cancer. Several studies have shown that allicin has ability to destroy tumor cells.
Allyl Sulfides ? compound in garlic that may help the body to fight off cancer.
3. Cruciferous vegetables like Brussels sprouts, kale, collard greens, cabbage Broccoli, spinach and cauliflower. They have several components that have been linked to lower cancer risk, including glucosinolates, crambene, indole-3-carbinol and, especially, isothiocyanates (which are derived from glucosinolates).
4. Berries. All berries such as ack raspberries, red raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, noni berries, a?ai berries and wolfberries. Raspberries and other berries contain a variety of vitamins, mineral, and phytochemicals called anthocyanins that have properties to fight cancer.
5. Grapes. Grapes contain high levels of resveratrol that inhibits the growth of cancer-cell and stimulating the immune system. They also contain an antioxidant known as ellagic acid that block enzymes that are required for cancer-cell growth.
6. Mushrooms. The researchers found that mushrooms have properties to fighting Cancer. Certain mushrooms like Coriolus Versicolor (Kawara take, Yun zhi, turkey tail) Shiitake, Reshi, Ganoderma have been researched for medicinal properties. These mushrooms contain polysaccharides that can enhance the body?s immune response to diseases like cancer.
7. Tomatoes. Tomatoes contains a phytochemical called lycopene, a cancer fighting agent. Tomatoes also contain vitamin C, an antioxidant which can protect against cancer by boosting the immune system.
8. Flaxseeds. Flaxseeds contains high amounts of lignans, an antioxidant that may help protect against certain cancers such as breast, colon and prostate cancer. Flaxseeds also contain high levels of alpha-linolenic acid, a type of omega-3-fatty acid that help reduce inflammation.
9. Soy. Soy products like tofu and soy milk contain phytonutrients known as isoflavones that may help your body to fight cancer cells such as breast and prostate cancer
10. Dark, leafy green. Dark, leafy green vegetables such as spinach, kale, swiss chard romaine lettuce, leaf lettuce, mustard greens, collard greens, turnip greens and chicory are contain beta-carotene as well as the carotenoid cousins called lutein and zeaxanthin. Beta-carotene, and carotenoid are all powerful antioxidants that seem to play a role in blocking early stages in the development of cancer.

4 Things You Need To Become A Guru
4 Things You Need To Become A Guru
So you want that brand recognition, where most of the people in your
business know about you, they respect your word , and you don't have
to prove them again who you are and why your ideas should be
respected. And of course the big reward that you seek after : the big
paycheck every month.
Now in order to do that you need to understand a few things.
1. You can't become a guru overnight !
Don't listen to all of the "gurus" out there that tell you you are
going to make a fortune in just a few days , you will learn the
secrets that took them for years to find them , and you will be
making a lot of money by doing that , and of course in all their
kindness tell you that they had a revelation and give you all their
information, and practically compete with them.
Well even if they did all that.... but you won't find anyone tell
you everything they do in their business ever , you will still have
to compete with years of Experience behind them ! Even if they hand
you a blueprint to print money you still wouldn't manage to compete
with them . When you come out with your "pretty bill" on the market
they will still have theirs but much improved if not totally
different by the time you figure out how to read the blueprint. And
they have more resources to make themselves known . But the good
thing is they give you a strategy in the other businesses some of
them might work...some not because the markets are just different.
2. You need to be highly focused. If you run to buy every new
product that comes out there , from 30 different people, and with
different type of information you will get confused and you won't get
anywhere. Same thing if you try 30 types of markets. You can't make
money in all of them at once. Choose your market , choose your type
of marketing and go make some money .
3. The third thing you need is perseverance. Now if you failed once
you will probably try again since you are attracted by the promise of
huge checks that you will receive if you master the skill of seo,
ppc, forex, viral marketing, copywriting, affiliate marketing, list
building, email marketing, multi level marketing, adsense, product
creation, and we can go on and on about the many skills which you
need to posses .
So this goes with number 2 . Perseverance and being highly focused
will get you fast on the right track. If you failed once don't give
up , try again , and again, and again, but after the first thing
failed, try to learn why it failed. What you did wrong. Maybe the
market was wrong, maybe you need to learn more about the market.
4. Discipline . All above don't mean anything if you are not very
well organized. You need to set priorities , choose your best skill
and focus on that . Do not try to do all the things at once or in the
same day. Be sure to put exercise in your daily program. If you stay
all day at the computer and won't take some time off you will work
yourself to death. Take a walk, take your dog out, do something to
take your mind off the work. You will find out that you come with
ideas much faster this way.
All this things will put you on the fast track to success

So you want that brand recognition, where most of the people in your
business know about you, they respect your word , and you don't have
to prove them again who you are and why your ideas should be
respected. And of course the big reward that you seek after : the big
paycheck every month.
Now in order to do that you need to understand a few things.
1. You can't become a guru overnight !
Don't listen to all of the "gurus" out there that tell you you are
going to make a fortune in just a few days , you will learn the
secrets that took them for years to find them , and you will be
making a lot of money by doing that , and of course in all their
kindness tell you that they had a revelation and give you all their
information, and practically compete with them.
Well even if they did all that.... but you won't find anyone tell
you everything they do in their business ever , you will still have
to compete with years of Experience behind them ! Even if they hand
you a blueprint to print money you still wouldn't manage to compete
with them . When you come out with your "pretty bill" on the market
they will still have theirs but much improved if not totally
different by the time you figure out how to read the blueprint. And
they have more resources to make themselves known . But the good
thing is they give you a strategy in the other businesses some of
them might work...some not because the markets are just different.
