For most women with breast cancer, there doesn't seem to be a significant survival benefit from having their healthy breast removed as well, new research suggests.</div>
<div class="spx_inspected_extr spx_global" style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
In recent years, more women with cancer in one breast have been choosing to have the other breast removed as a precaution -- known as a prophylactic or preventive mastectomy. But this new study finds that over 20 years, the survival benefit between women who've had a preventive mastectomy and those who kept their healthy breast was less than 1 percent.</div>

"We found fairly convincing evidence that there really is no meaningful long-term survival benefit for the vast majority of women with breast cancer by having their opposite breast removed," said study researcher Dr. Todd Tuttle. He is chief of surgical oncology at the University of Minnesota School of Medicine.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
"Most patients have very minimal increases in life expectancy, one to seven months," Tuttle said. And that difference was spread over two or more decades, especially in the younger women, he said.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
Younger women with stage I, estrogen receptor-negative breast cancer (the type not fueled by estrogen) had the greatest survival benefits from the procedure. But, the survival difference between those who had the surgery and those who didn't was still less than 1 percent over 20 years, according to the study.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
It's important to note that none of the women in this study had the so-called breast cancer genes known as BRCA-1 and BRCA-2. These genes significantly increase a woman's risk of breast and ovarian cancer, according to the U.S. National Cancer Institute. And, because of their increased risk, preventive surgeries to remove the breasts and the ovaries are often offered to these women.</div>

Tuttle's team tracked survival over 20 years for more than 100,000 women with stage I or stage II breast cancers. The researchers then used a model to simulate survival results in women who had prophylactic mastectomy and those who did not.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
The researchers didn't look at other considerations, such as quality of life, surgical complications, or fear driving the decision to have a preventive mastectomy.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
Recent research has found that unfounded fears prompt some women to have their healthy breast removed. In one study of women age 40 and under with breast cancer who chose preventive mastectomy, 94 percent said they wanted to boost survival, even though only 18 percent thought the procedure would actually do that.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
From his practice, Tuttle said, he knows many women asking for preventive mastectomy do so out of fear. Many who opt for the procedure tell Tuttle: "I am going to have my other breast removed for peace of mind." He tells them: "It's really a false sense of security."</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
He tells women who have had breast cancer in one breast that, yes, they are at increased risk of developing cancer in the opposite breast. But the chances of developing cancer in the opposite breast is about 4 or 5 percent over the next 10 years, Tuttle said, citing studies in the medical literature.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
However, he said, overall survival depends on "whether the original cancer spread, not whether you get a new one."</div>
<div style="color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 3.5%; margin-right: 34.25%; margin-top: 0px;">
Dr. Stephen G. Pauker, professor of medicine and psychiatry at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, wrote an accompanying editorial in the same issue of the journal. He noted that the survival "differences are small" between the two groups of women.</div>

Hands NEVER Lie!<br />
My Self-Care to a Self-Cure From Lupus<br />
<br />
"Hi, my name is Ida Kolader from Amsterdam. It always amazes me that people are so skeptic, almost afraid it seems, about a natural holistic approach to treating and reversing a sickness or dis-ease. And yet, people have complete faith in conventional medical doctors, synthetic drugs, the pharmaceutical industry and their search for a miracle cure or better yet THE miracle cure.<br />
<br />
My Lupus symptoms included severe inflammation of my palms and soles, sometimes so extreme that I could hardly hold a pen or put on my shoes. An acidic symptom my doctors hadn’t seen before and couldn’t properly manage with medication. I’ve also had Raynaud’s for 10 years which again is very painful and uncomfortable, so I started wearing gloves to prevent attacks.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, MY medical doctors failed to mention that nutrition and exercise are a huge influence for your over-all health and fitness. Within 2 weeks of transitioning to The pH Miracle alkaline lifestyle diet or what Dr. Robert O. Young calls 'The New Biology' my palms and soles cleared up and didn’t hurt anymore. This was the first winter (2013) after 7 years of pain and suffering where I only needed gloves just once! And yes, I know, it wasn't a cold winter but that never really mattered before. I could barely go outside without my gloves. And, I had several pairs lying around the house and in my car just to make sure I always had a pair available!<br />
<br />
Below, you will see several pictures of me and my hands. Why? Because my hands tell the story of my healing from Lupus and my HANDS WOULD NEVER LIE!<br />
<br />
The first picture is of me in 2007, after receiving the traditional medical treatments for Lupus, including chemo therapy, plaqeunil and monthly IVIG iv's. The second picture is a picture of my inflammed AND PAINFUL hand 1 week before I attended Dr. Robert O. Young's pH Miracle Retreat at the Ti Sana Detox Center, in Como, Italy. The third picture is a picture of my hand 3 weeks after transitioning onto Dr. Young's pH Miracle alkaline lifestyle and diet following The pH Miracle Retreat in Como, Italy. The fourth picture is a picture of my healthy, alkaline, and PAIN FREE hand taken after my 10th month on the alkaline lifestyle and diet. The last picture is the current healthy and alkaline 'ME' completely free of TRADITIONAL DOCTORS, and ALL BIG PHARMA DRUGS! I AM A LIVING, BREATHING TESTAMENT THAT THERE IS A SELF-CURE FOR ALL SICKNESS AND DISEASE, INCLUDING LUPUS!!<br />
<br />
I probably won’t win a beauty pageant but I am so freaking HAPPY it doesn’t hurt anymore! And, ALL I did was restore my body's natural alkaline healthy state by following Dr. Young's pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet, HE calls THE NEW BIOLOGY."<br />
<br />
To learn more about Dr. Young and His pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet read The pH Miracle revised and updated book! www.phmiracle.com or www.phmiraclebooks.com You can also read more of Dr. Young's health articles at: www.articlesofhealth.blogspot.com<br />
<br />
Please read and share this post with everyone you love and care about. Let them KNOW that there is a self-care to a self-cure for ALL sickness and disease, including Lupus!<br />
<br />
ONE LAST THING! Please watch and share my documentary on Lupus with the World so the millions that are suffering from ENERVATION, IRRITATION, INFLAMMATION, INDURATION, ULCERATION AND DEGENERATION can NOW KNOW there is a SELF-CURE FOR ALL SICKNESS AND DIESEASE, including LUPUS!!!!!</div>

‘I can now climb trees’: 6yo kid gets prosthetic arm from 3D printer, July 27, 2014

A 6 year-old boy from Florida born with right arm deficiency has received a prosthetic replacement. Now climbing a tree and catching a ball will be easier for him. Students from Florida University made it on a 3D printer for just $350 in just 8 weeks.<br />
<br />
Help for little Alex Pring, missing his right arm from just above the elbow, came from students at the University of Central Florida. An engineering doctoral student, Albert Manero, heard about the boy’s needs and decided to recruit a team of students to create a solution for the boy.<br />
<br />
<i>“I mean, I’m me. So I don’t have an arm,” little Alex said. “I still try real hard to do things like other kids using what I’ve got. But it’s getting harder the more I grow,”</i> according to the official website of University of Central Florida.<br />
<br />
The arm and part of the hand were made on a 3D printer. They run with off-the-shelf servos and batteries that are activated by the electromyography muscle energy in Alex’s bicep.<br />
<br />
Alex’s new limb only cost $350 to build. In comparison, prosthetic arms for children cost much more – about $40,000 - and they have to be replaced often as children grow.<br />
<br />
Also prosthetics for kids are more difficult to make than for adults because the components are much smaller, according to Manero. When Alex gets too big for his new limb, new parts will be printed and they will also be cheap– only $20 for a new hand, and around $40 to $50 for a replacement forearm.<br />
<i>"I hope that people look at these other arms that cost $40,000," Manero said. "If we can do this for just $350 in 8 weeks, I'm sure we're going to keep pioneering."</i><br />
<i><br /></i>The arm was delivered to Alex on Friday. He practiced his new limb on a toy duck. He managed to grip the toy and squeeze it with his new hand. Then he rushed to his mother to hug her with both hands –for the first time in his life.<br />
<br />
<i>“When he hugged me with two hands, he just didn’t let go,”</i> said Alyson Pring, Alex’s mother. <i>“It was amazing. I think it will help his confidence, so he can see future possibilities and make them seem all the more reachable for him.”</i><br />
<i><br /></i>Manero, who has a master’s degree from UCF in aerospace engineering and is writing his Ph.D., said he believes the team’s design could help many similarly affected children.<br />
<br />
<i>“My mother taught us that we’re supposed to help change the world,”</i> said Manero. <i>“We’re supposed to help make it better. That’s why we did it. The look on Alex’s face when he used it for the first time was priceless.”</i><br />
<i><br /></i>And the enthusiastic team doesn’t want to stop at Alex - they have decided to help all children with such problems. <br />
<br />
<i>“We’ve already heard from another family who needs an arm. We’re committed to helping who we can.”</i><br />
<i><br /></i><i>“I think 3-D printing is revolutionizing our world in many ways. I believe changing the world of prosthetics is very real. There’s no reason why this approach shouldn’t work on adults too.”</i>

<b><br /></b><b></b><b>July 25, 2014–</b>Considered one of the classics of conspiracy research, David Icke has spent the last quarter of a century unraveling the secrets of the universe, reality and the forces that manipulate our world. After writing more than 20 books, David Icke has driven on with his unrelentless investigation into subject areas that others don't dare touch. Icke shares his analysis of US occupation in the Middle East. He’ll also talk about ISIS, with an alleged extremist Islamic agenda, yet silence from Israel.<br />
<br />
We’ll talk about the genocide of Palestinians and the redrawing of the Middle East with Israel as the new dictator. David discusses the origins of Israel, which is based on a hoax. He’ll discuss events leading up to the creation of the State of Israel. Then, we’ll talk about where the elite want to take the world and the techniques they’re using to get there. Their techniques include the destruction of nationhood and forced multiculturalism.<br />
<br />
Icke comments on Europeans who are re-acting to preserve their nationhood, challenging the European Union and fighting back. We’ll talk about how the elite are working hard to establish a one world culture, a mono everything, through killing true diversity. Later, he’ll speak on the inner core of Zionism that functions like a secret society. We also talk about how young Jews are being programmed from birth and being used for a bigger strategy. At the end we discuss how people are frightened into silence, sticking their heads in the sand but this will not make the problems go away. Diversity of everything, including power is needed. -redicecreations.com<br />
