Politics / Buhari Not Qualify For President by banexcash: 1:06pm On Aug 24, 2018
I not disputing the fact that Buhari have good intention for Nigeria, but he lack the capacity. Buhari is like a student who read hard for exams, but still fail the exam.
Any body that want good for this country will not support Buhari reelection 2019. Let keep religion aside and say the true. The problem of this country is, we take religion in everything.

Sports / Birmingham Sacked Manger Harry Redknapp. by banexcash: 12:41pm On Sep 17, 2017
Birmingham City has sacked manager Harry Redknapp after a sixth times straight defeat on Saturday.

Birmingham announced Redknapp's sacked shortly after a 3-1 home defeat left them second bottom of the Championship, with four points from eight games.
The club said, unfortunately due to the poor performance of Harry Redknapp, we are left with no option but to terminate the contract of the manager with immediate effect.
Redknapp kept Birmingham up after succeeding Gianfranco Zola in April and oversaw a major overhaul of the playing squad during the transfer window.
Redknapp bring fourteen players came in, but the club have won just once in the league and are out of the Carabao Cup.

Lee Carsley, the club's head professional development coach, will take charge on a caretaker basis.
He said, it just seems when things start to go wrong, we just seemed to go under today. We got another hamstring after two minutes today - that's four hamstrings.
Che Adams we turned down £10m for him on transfer Deadline Day. He's not started a game, hasn't played. Isaac Vassell hasn't played. We bought Jota from Brentford - £6m - he's done a hamstring at Leeds. Today Jason Lowe does a hamstring after one or two minutes.
That's not excuses, it's just the facts. It's made it difficult to get a settled team that you can think 'this is my team, go and play the next five or six games and get a bit of an understanding together. [url][/url]www.goalspots..com

Health / Radiation Therapy For Breast Cancer by banexcash: 1:52pm On Nov 01, 2014
Radiation therapy uses a special kind of high-energy beam to damage cancer cells. (Other types of energy beams include light and X-rays.) These high-energy beams, which are invisible to the human eye, damage a cell’s DNA, the material that cells use to divide.

Over time, the radiation damages cells that are in the path of its beam — normal cells as well as cancer cells. But radiation affects cancer cells more than normal cells. Cancer cells are very busy growing and multiplying — 2 activities that can be slowed or stopped by radiation damage. And because cancer cells are less organized than healthy cells, it's harder for them to repair the damage done by radiation. So cancer cells are more easily destroyed by radiation, while healthy, normal cells are better able to repair themselves and survive the treatment.

There are two different ways to deliver radiation to the tissues to be treated:

a machine called a linear accelerator that delivers radiation from outside the body
pellets, or seeds, of material that give off radiation beams from inside the body

Tissues to be treated might include the breast area, lymph nodes, or another part of the body.

In some cases, your doctor may recommend hyperthermia be used in combination with radiation therapy. Hyperthermia (also called thermal therapy or thermotherapy) uses an energy source such as ultrasound or microwave to heat cancer cells to high temperatures, up to 113 degrees Fahrenheit. Early research has shown that hyperthermia may make some cancer cells more sensitive to radiation. Hyperthermia is still being studied in clinical trials and isn't available everywhere. Hyperthermia and radiation are usually given within an hour of each other.

Some people may fear radiation therapy. They may worry that therapeutic radiation may be dangerous like an atomic bomb or nuclear power plant. Stories about radiation side effects, some of them exaggerated, can circulate around hospital waiting rooms. It's important for you to know that there is NO connection between therapeutic radiation and the types of radiation in bombs and nuclear reactors. The radiation used in cancer treatment is highly focused, controllable, and generally safe.[url][/url]www.cancersolver..com
Health / Mesothelioma Cancer Cure by banexcash: 11:12am On Jan 04, 2014
What Is Mesothelioma?

Mesothelioma is a form of cancer that affects the mesothelium, a protective membrane covering the heart, lungs, and other internal organs. This rare cancer is frequently caused by exposure to asbestos or other lung irritants. A highly aggressive disease, mesothelioma is frequently resistant to most common cancer treatments. There is no cure for this serious illness, but many researchers are focused on this field. Inducing remission has been successful in some patients, and there are treatment options to relieve pain, extend life expectancy, and improve a patient's quality of life.

Mesothelioma Symptoms

The primary symptoms of early stage mesothelioma are chest pain, coughing, and fatigue. Although caused by asbestos, symptoms of this cancer may not appear until up to fifty years after exposure to the irritant. In general, mesothelioma does not appear until at least twenty years following initial exposure. Due to the fact that the early symptoms are mild and can be caused by many other diseases, combined with the late appearance after exposure, mesothelioma often goes undiagnosed until symptoms worsen and the cancer becomes more serious. Later symptoms can include anemia, unexplained weight loss, difficulty swallowing, diarrhea or constipation, chest pain, bowel obstruction, and night sweats. The prognosis is much better when the disease is caught in early stages. As such, anyone that has been exposed to asbestos should see a doctor immediately if they experience persistent chest pain, coughing, or fatigue.

Mesothelioma Diagnosis

Unfortunately, mesothelioma symptoms overlap with symptoms of many other diseases. As a result, diagnosis can be difficult. Patients presenting symptoms of this serious cancer will undergo a complete physical, imaging tests, tissue biopsies, and lung functioning tests. Further tests, such as fluid biopsies, magnetic resonance images, and blood tests may also be ordered by an oncologist to get a complete picture of the disease.

Types of Mesothelioma

As noted above, the mesothelium covers the heart, lungs, and other internal organs. Any organs that are covered by this protective membrane can be affected during the course of mesothelioma. Three primary types of mesothelioma, that target three different regions, have been identified. Over 75% of all mesothelioma patients suffer from pleural mesothelioma, which is centered in the pleural lining of the lungs. These patients are likely to experience shortness of breath, hoarseness, chest pain, and muscle fatigue. Peritoneum mesothelioma is centered in the peritoneum, or membrane covering the organs of the abdomen. Peritoneum mesothelioma causes fever, diarrhea and constipation, weight loss, blood-clotting abnormalities, fluid accumulation, and bowel obstruction. The final and most rare type of mesothelioma affects the pericardium, or membrane surrounding the heart. Rare and aggressive, pericardial mesothelioma causes severe chest pain, heart palpitations, respiratory problems, chest pain, and coughing. Patients with pericardial mesothelioma are frequently not candidates for surgery as this form of the disease is not typically diagnosed until later stages.

Who Gets Mesothelioma?

Mesothelioma is caused by the inhalation of asbestos. The irritants are breathed in, traveling to internal organs throughout the body. Depending on where the asbestos lands in their travels, the lungs, heart, or abdominal organs can be affected. Anyone who works with asbestos materials for a living is at an increased risk for this serious disease. Examples of professions dealing with this dangerous substance include: some military veterans, construction workers, renovation crews, mechanics, insulators, asbestos mine workers and millers, boiler workers, and asbestos manufacturing employees. Due to the serious nature of this disease, anyone employed in these professions, as well as others who have worked with asbestos, should seek medical attention immediately if they display the above listed symptoms.

Living With Mesothelioma

Although mesothelioma is classified as an aggressive cancer, some patients have lived many years with this disease. Proper nutrition, regular exercise, and relaxation techniques are all important for maintaining a high quality of life. While mesothelioma cannot be cured, the proper treatment and a positive outlook can help ensure the happiness and comfort of most patients.
